So were recognizing the severity of the disease and the perceived susceptibility and risks. Vaccine uptake also increased if the parents received concise and timely information from doctors. However, some parents were uncomfortable with the number of injections their children would receive and larger families were also a barrier.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Factors that affected parents' acceptance of the MCV included sociodemographic factors, awareness of the severity of the disease and perceived susceptibility and risks.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/apa.70398","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,1]],"date-time":"2025-12-01T12:05:37Z","timestamp":1764590737000},"page":"2587-2594","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Parents Who Accepted the Meningococcal Conjugate Vaccine Were More Aware of the Severity of the Disease and Risks"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"115","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9528-2511","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ozge","family":"Yendur","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Paediatrics Medicana International Izmir Hospital  Izmir Turkiye"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zuhal","family":"Gundogdu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Paediatrics Kocaeli University  Kocaeli Turkiye"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","unstructured":"8th WHO Technical Taskforce \u201cDefeating Meningitis by 2030\u2014A Global Road Map \u201d(2023) https:\/\/www.who.int\/news\/item\/17\u201001\u20102023\u20108th\u2010who\u2010technical\u2010taskforce\u2010\u2010defeating\u2010meningitis\u2010by\u20102030\u2010\u2010\u2010a\u2010global\u2010road\u2010map."},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"Prevention and Control of Meningococcal Disease: Recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP)","volume":"62","author":"Cohn A.
