Chi-squared and z-tests showed that the percentage of willing people is significantly higher amongst those who agree with the statement ''I have the primary responsibility for preventing the infection by COVID-19" (63%) when compared with those who disagree (42.6%). Moreover, our data showed that the percentage is higher amongst those people who agree that preventive behaviours are an act of social responsibility (64.1%), when compared to those who don't agree (24.9%). Engaging citizens towards the acceptance of the COVID-19 vaccination is a urgent challenge that the public health community needs to face. In our opinion, developing a COVID-19 public vaccination program should start from considering people's attitudes to engage them in an educational campaign focused on fostering the citizens-science alliance. ./cache/cord-255625-4r6ng57a.txt ./txt/cord-255625-4r6ng57a.txt
