Summary/Abstract: Vaccination: How Find a Solution to Ethical Conflicts. The ethical approach of the vaccination topic is a task that could meet serious difficulties and conflicts. And the main reasons that cause these impediments are: (1) the possible lack of a theoretical foundation of the discourse about vaccination and prejudices of the individual thinking (2) that, conjunctively, raise (3) the divergent perspectives. Moreover, even the values assumed by the individual may have a significant contribution on apperception of the balance benefits - disadvantages of the political type used in the vaccination case. And for finding ways to ethical tackle this issue (without conflicts, but with good results to improve the confidence in the health system), only the individual himself can provide a picture of the apperception at his level of these issues. Thus, phenomenological studies could be an answer to the need of finding an ethical approach for such a complex issue and with such an extensive impact on the lives of the entire population like the vaccination.
