Cover Story: Vaccination is the most effective measure against influenza. Healthcare workers (HCWs) are considered a priority group for receiving this vaccine, but historically they have been reticent. The COVID-19 pandemic has heightened awareness of its importance. This study investigated the trends of vaccination coverage (VC) among HCWs from the 2019/2020 to 2022/2023 seasons, potential factors influencing HCWs acceptance, and the occurrence of adverse events (AE). Our findings reveal an increase in VC during the most critical moments of the pandemic (2020/21 and 2021/22 seasons), which has, subsequently, decreased (2022/2023 season) to levels below pre-pandemic (2019/2020 season). The most frequent reason for vaccination was “self-protection”, and 26.6% reported at least one AE, but none were severe, which justifies implementing specific measures to recover the VC.
