Abstract
Objective: To report the experience on the adherence of riverside communities to vaccination against covid-19 in the interior of Amazonas. Experience report: Related to the vaccination campaign against Covid-19 in riverside communities, developed by nursing students from a Federal Public University in a municipality in the interior of Amazonas, carried out in June 2021 during the flood of the rivers. The action was mediated by the Municipal Health Department of the municipality and coordinated by a Nurse. The vaccination campaign included people aged 18 years and over, the vaccination was carried out through an active search for riverside people in the communities, exploring the areas covered. Final considerations: Through the experience, it was possible to realize the importance of combating misinformation and false news, which easily influence traditional groups, through health education actions and experiencing the hard work of nursing in the face of logistical difficulties and sociocultural conflicts present in riverside communities in the region.
