Özet

Objective: Although medical students are not determined as health care workers worldwide, they are commonly exposed to some infectious agents such as hepatitis A virus. Therefore, it is important to assess their perceptions of the hepatitis A vaccine. In this study, we aimed to assess the attitudes of Turkish medical students about hepatitis A vaccine and vaccine-associated side effects.
