vaccino

Looks like
vaccine
same
⚠️ The trap
Same meaning, from Latin 'vacca' (cow — after Jenner's cowpox vaccine). The trap: 'vaccinazione' = vaccination (the act); 'vaccino' = the vaccine (the substance). Also: 'fare il vaccino' = to get vaccinated — Italian uses 'fare' (to do/have) here.
To say "same" in Italian:
vaccino (correct)
"vaccino" in English means:
vaccine
Example
"Il vaccino contro l'influenza è disponibile in farmacia."
"The flu vaccine is available at the pharmacy."
