dc.description.abstract | Aim: Taking into account that a key determinant in public approval of vaccinations is how the
media constructs and frames messages about vaccination programmes, our aim is to review
communication studies exploring media coverage of vaccines within traditional media venues.
Methods: Using a registered protocol (PROSPERO: 42017072849), a systematic review was
conducted that searched in three international electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, and the
International Bibliography of Social Science) for articles published between 2007 and 2017
following content-analysis methods. The characteristics and outcomes were systematically
identified and described. The search yielded 24 eligible studies that were further analysed in
the review.
Results: Media coverage of vaccines has been largely studied during the last decade. Findings
revealed that 62% (n = 15) of studies analysed the human papillomavirus vaccine, 87% (n = 21)
examined newspapers, and 62% (n = 15) examined North American media. In relation to
media content analyses, 75% found negative messages on vaccines and 83% identified a lack
of accurate information.
Conclusions: This systematic review suggests an agenda for further research. There is a
significant need to analyse other types of traditional media beyond newspapers. Future studies
should focus on other geographical areas such as low-income countries and on analysing
visual materials and digital media. We found that negative messages and inaccurate
information are common in media coverage on vaccines; therefore, further research focusing
on these topics is needed. Officials in public health organizations should develop a close
collaboration with the media to improve public communication on vaccines. | es_ES |
