The thesis is based on the theoretical findings about the immunization and the results of research, which was made by asking the respondents to fulfil the questionnaire. The results showed, that the parents are not looking for the information about childhood immunization very often. They rather rely on information heard from the paediatrist. That's why, we think paediatrists should offer a bigger amonut of information to parents by giving them some specific contacts (websides, prospectus or brochures).
