Rev Mex Patol Clin Med Lab 2020; 67 (2): 93-112: La tuberculosis (TB) es en la actualidad la patología de tipo infeccioso que causa mayor número de muertes alrededor del mundo cada año. La percepción acerca de esta entidad ha cambiado a lo largo del tiempo, ya que se consideraba que se relaciona...ba con la pobreza y las consecuencias de la misma como desnutrición, hacinamiento y promiscuidad; sin embargo, en los últimos 40 años con la aparición de la infección del virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana (VIH) los casos comenzaron a incrementarse, además de la aparición de nuevas sepas multirresistentes a la terapéutica convencional, lo que indudablemente ha provocado la reemergencia de esta entidad así como la potencialización en su letalidad.

Desde março de 2020, quando a Organização Mundial de Saúde declarou que o mundo vivia uma pandemia de covid-19, acompanhamos um quadro sanitário sem precedentes nos últimos 100 anos. As medidas atuais contra a ...doença têm como objetivo o controle da transmissão e envolvem ações individuais e coletivas de higiene e distanciamento físico, enquanto a busca por uma vacina se apresenta como a esperança para vencer a pandemia. Considerando o contexto social de clamor por uma nova vacina, este ensaio crítico discute o paradoxo e as contradições da relação indivíduo-sociedade no contexto da covid-19 à luz da hesitação vacinal como fenômeno histórico e socialmente situado. Este ensaio aponta que as tomadas de decisão sobre (não) vacinar ou sobre (não) seguir as medidas preventivas e de controle da propagação da covid-19 são conformadas por pertencimentos sociais e atravessadas por desigualdades que tendem a se exacerbar. A infodemia que cerca a covid-19 e a hesitação vacinal refletem a tensão entre o risco cientificamente validado e o risco percebido subjetivamente, também influenciada pela crise de confiança na ciência. Percepções de risco e adesão a medidas de saúde extrapolam aspectos subjetivos e racionais e espelham valores e crenças conformados pelas dimensões política, econômica e sociocultural.
