Abstract

The article emphasizes that the health of the population, which is one of the greatest values, is a necessary condition for socio-economic development of the country and emphasizes that in the fight against acute respiratory disease COVID-19, vaccination of the population of Ukraine is important. The legal acts are analyzed, the problematic issues related to vaccination of the population are revealed. One of the reasons for mistrust is the spread of false information about vaccination.

It is emphasized that the solution of the existing problems of vaccination puts before the state the need to take appropriate organizational and legal measures. The Law of Ukraine «On the Public Health System», № 4142, which is in the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, should play an important role in this issue.

Keywords: state, government, regulations, health, COVID-19, vaccination
