Physicians as Citizens of the World (CAPÍTULO)

Abstract
The movement of medical professionalism is closely connected to the movement of bioethics. Both movements can be regarded as efforts to enhance the ethical responsibilities of healthcare professionals. What they have in common is that they emerged in local healthcare systems and social circumstances but nowadays are determined by the global context. This requires a new conceptualization of the role of physicians.

The importance of confidence, complacency, and convenience for influenza vaccination among key risk groups in large urban areas of Peru

Abstract 
Influenza vaccination has been available under Peru’s national immunization program since 2008, but vaccination coverage has decreased lately. Surveys and focus groups were conducted among four risk groups (pregnant women, mothers of children aged <6 years, adults with risk factors, and adults aged ≥65 years) to identify factors affecting influenza vaccine hesitancy in Peru. The 3Cs model (Confidence, Complacency, and Convenience) was used as a conceptual framework for the study.
