Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted a challenge in developing vaccines for most countries worldwide. Discussions about mass vaccination (with both positive and negative connotations) unfolded in the society and reflected the fears and hopes of the population while forming pluralistic attitudes toward this measure.
The need for mass vaccination, first of all, was understood by those medical specialists directly working with patients with COVID-19 infection, including medical students involved in providing assistance on a voluntary basis.
This article presents the results of a medical and sociological study of the peculiarities of the attitudes against vaccination experienced by medical students while working with COVID-19-infected patients.
