Abstract

COVID-19 rapidly transformed from being a serious concern that seemed to be confined to China, to a global health emergency practically overnight. Most people who fall sick with COVID-19 will experience mild to moderate symptoms and recover without special treatment. However, some will become seriously ill and require medical attention. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, several coronavirus variants have emerged as the virus, SARS-CoV-2, continues to mutate and evolve. The availability of a safe and effective COVID-19 vaccine is largely regarded as a crucial tool in the pandemic's fight. An effective vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 infection is thought to stimulate innate and adaptive immune responses, providing protection against severe forms of coronavirus illness 2019 (COVID-19). Vaccine reluctance and refusal are major concerns around the world for a variety of reasons, including religious convictions, personal opinions, and safety concerns based on widespread misinformation. The voluntary uptake of the vaccination will be aided by the dissemination of consistent information through numerous communication channels and platforms. The purpose of this work is to compile survey-based data. Survey was done to know the status of vaccinated people in the particular areas.
