Abstract
Some obstacles still hamper the achievement of good vaccination coverage. In the health district of Nouna (Burkina Faso) three elements emerged from the analysis: the empirical conceptions of childhood diseases, the perceived efficacy of vaccine and the knowledge of appropriate age for vaccination uptake; the gap between the decision-making process and the actual achievement of vaccination; and the vaccination procedure leading to vaccination uptake.
