Andrea, a fourth-year medical student who was the first to receive the immunization, opened up about her decision to do so: “As a public health measure and to protect those around me. Also, I am interning in the hospital to protect myself.”
Protection is the number one reason most students chose to attend a vaccination ceremony today. Marina, who is studying her third nursing course, admits that she “respects catching any virus” due to their internship in a hospital. Marina’s colleague Sonia did this to prevent her from becoming infected “so as not to spread it to any patients, especially older patients, who are one of the high-risk groups.” “Throughout the day, we come into contact with many patients who may be presenting with a variety of conditions, and if we infect them, we may exacerbate their clinical condition”said medical student Paula.
