Vaccine hesitancy is a significant global issue and is recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as one of the most pressing threats to public health. Defined as the delay in acceptance or refusal of vaccines despite their availability, vaccine hesitancy undermines decades of progress in preventing vaccine-preventable diseases. The issue is complex, influenced by misinformation, distrust in healthcare systems, cultural beliefs, and access barriers. These challenges require innovative and empathetic solutions to increase vaccine acceptance. Addressing this growing epidemic requires a multifaceted approach, which involves broader strategies and policymaking and in addition, effective communication tools for clinicians. Motivational Interviewing (MI), a patient-centered communication technique, offers an effective strategy to address pediatric vaccine hesitancy by fostering trust, understanding, and informed decision-making. This review aims to explore the problem of pediatric vaccine hesitancy in the United States, examine its underlying factors, and highlight evidence-based strategies, including Motivational Interviewing, to address this growing concern in clinical and public health settings. It offers practical guidance for healthcare providers and pediatricians to tackle this growing problem effectively and emphasizes the need for a combined effort of communication, community outreach, education, and systemic policy to overcome vaccine hesitancy.
