Resumen
Desde el inicio de la pandemia mundial del COVID ha cobrado la vida de millones de personas y a través del tiempo han aparecido nuevas variantes de la enfermedad amenazando la esperanza y la calidad de vida de la población, por este motivo, los gobiernos y laboratorios fabricantes del mundo han trabajado en conjunto para desarrollar las vacunas con las cuales se pueda dar solución contra el virus. Objetivo: Determinar las representaciones sociales en el afrontamiento a la vacunación contra el COVID. Método: Se aplicó la metodología cualitativa, fenomenológica mediante la técnica de la entrevista realizada a 8 familias informantes claves, que se habían o no vacunado contra la COVID. Resultado: Las familias entrevistadas han recibido mucha información a través de la prensa y redes sociales con la cual se ha formado su criterio o pensamiento acerca del COVID, las vacunas y la vacunación. Conclusión: Se logra destacar que no existe un solo criterio o creencia acerca de las vacunas puesto que el pensamiento colectivo es diverso, para algunas familias las vacunas son la solución y con las cuales se puede frenar al virus, para otras familias dudan de si tantas dosis de vacunas son necesarias y por qué la obligación de vacunarse cuando debería ser voluntario pero consideran también que las vacunas les ayudaran a mermar los síntomas si llegan contagiarse del virus o evitar directamente que se contagien. Finalmente, hay familias que rechazan totalmente las vacunas y bajo ninguna circunstancia quieren vacunarse, pues aseguran que no son efectivas.
Since the beginning of the global pandemic of COVID has claimed the lives of millions of people and over time new variants of the disease have appeared threatening the hope and quality of life of the population, for this reason, governments and manufacturing laboratories in the world have worked together to develop vaccines with which to provide a solution against the virus. Objective: To determine the social representations in coping with vaccination against COVID. Method: The qualitative, phenomenological methodology was applied by means of the interview technique carried out with 8 key informant families, who had or had not been vaccinated against COVID. Result: The families interviewed have received a lot of information through the press and social networks with which they have formed their criteria or thinking about COVID, vaccines and vaccination. Conclusion: It is possible to highlight that there is not a single criterion or belief about vaccines since the collective thinking is diverse, for some families vaccines are the solution and with which the virus can be stopped, for other families they doubt whether so many doses of vaccines are necessary and why the obligation to be vaccinated when it should be voluntary but they also consider that vaccines will help them to reduce the symptoms if they get infected with the virus or directly prevent them from getting infected. Finally, there are families who totally reject vaccines and under no circumstances do they want to be vaccinated, as they claim that they are not effective.
