Healthcare students are a specific subgroup of healthcare workers as they are often not identified by the occupational medicine systems in healthcare facilities, because of their shared time between hospital wards and universities. Nevertheless, they should comply with the same vaccination recommendations as employed healthcare workers because they are in close and repeated contact with patients. Occupational immunization recommendations may vary between countries, but always include vaccine-preventable diseases that might lead to nosocomial outbeaks and/or fatal outcomes for healthcare workers or patients. Studies conclude that vaccine coverage is too low in healthcare students, and that they are often not aware of their possibility to be vectors of infections to frail patients. Efforts should be made to educate medical and nursing students on vaccines, to convince them of the utility of immunization and to offer them an increased access to occupational vaccinations in hospitals and universities.
医学生是医护人员中的一个特定亚群体，由于他们在医院病房和大学之间分配时间，医疗机构的职业医学系统往往没有将他们识别出来。然而，他们应与在职医护人员遵守相同的疫苗接种建议，因为他们与患者有密切且反复的接触。不同国家的职业免疫建议可能有所不同，但通常都包括可能导致医院感染暴发和/或对医护人员或患者造成致命后果的疫苗可预防疾病。研究得出结论，医学生的疫苗接种率过低，而且他们往往没有意识到自己可能成为感染体弱患者的传染源。应努力对医学和护理专业学生进行疫苗教育，使他们相信免疫接种的作用，并为他们提供更多在医院和大学接种职业疫苗的机会。
