5. Conclusions
In conclusion, despite the vast majority of our sample expressing favourable opinions regarding COVID-19 vaccination, the uncertainty about the safety and efficacy of vaccines, the issue of timing and the adoption of a new development technology and the effect of these perceptions on the vaccine COVID-19 acceptance suggests the need to develop targeted strategies to increase effective communication about the risks and benefits of COVID-19 vaccines. These strategies should focus on strengthening the relationship between healthcare workers and the population, and on the search for alternative strategies to provide adequate information to the population, in order to contribute to the maintenance of high levels of vaccination coverage.
