Abstract

The objective is to analyze and describe the perceptions of health workers (HW) regarding the interaction they have had with the population during the pandemic. This investigation parted from the analysis of the possibility of rejection or acceptance of the vaccination against SARS-Cov-2, the experience of being attacked and the attributed motives. A digital survey was applied to 510 HW. 34% suffered some type of aggression, attributing it to the ignorance of the population. 71.5% indicated that vaccination would be accepted by the majority. We identified three explanatory modalities: deterministic, moral and agency. The results show an indirect approach to their perception of the population and the way they interact with them, both important elements of risk perception.

KEYWORDS:
