• Abstract:

  With the spread of COVID-19 around the world, global dynamics have changed, so the rapid and effective development of vaccines has become necessary to reduce deaths from the pandemic. In this context, an emergency National Immunization Plan (PNI) was developed and, therefore, volunteers were needed for the development and application of the vaccination campaign against COVID-19. Thus, health science students were protagonists of the immunization program with the highest percentage of volunteers. This work is a descriptive study, in the model of experience report, which aims to demonstrate the experiences, positive and negative of the academics about the elapsed months of volunteering. In addition, the results of the interaction between several students, from public and private institutions of various courses, were positive, as there was a break in the social and academic bubbles, in addition, it was undoubtedly enriching for the training of health professionals more qualified to deal with real situations of the Unified Health System (S.U.S.).
