| Abstract: | Background The rate of influenza vaccination in Japan has declined over the past several decades. It is essential to identify community-specific
factors that affect attitudes toward vaccination, but such parameters have not yet been fully determined in Japan. The present
study used the Health Belief Model (HBM) to identify perceptions of influenza vaccination in a rural Japanese community. |
