Abstract

Objectives: The off-late emerged corona virus 2019 (COVID-19), which was brought by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) had a significant negative impact in human health. Multiple vaccines were developed and delivered in just one year after the epidemic began. The effectiveness of several new vaccinations significantly exceeded expectations, and there is a good chance that the COVID-19 will be nullified soon. However, several challenges still persist. The idea of advanced countries' vaccination programs is far developed means that the world's population will soon acquire protective immunity to this dreadful disease. Additionally, vaccine hesitancy is a major problem, particularly in young people who often deal with COVID-19 well and exhibit few to no symptoms. The remarkable side-effects related to the COVID-19 vaccine are well documented. In the present study, we focused on the determination of substantial side-effects observed after COVID-19 vaccination in local population of Kolkata region, West Bengal, India.

Methods: We have prepared the survey questionnaire in order to determine the side effects experienced by the people, who were vaccinated (1^st or 2^nd or both) against COVID-19. Due to the pandemic situation, it was difficult to conduct the survey by physical interaction with the people living in the Kolkata region of West Bengal. So, the survey was conducted via virtual mode through some social networking sites.

Key Findings: The total number of candidates for this study was near to hundreds, from the Kolkata and its nearest areas. This survey will help us to find out the current scenario related to Covid-19 vaccination, and the survey is done in Kolkata region.

Conclusions: The survey will allow the readers to understand the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines. The respondents experienced mild to severe side effects. However, the efficacies of COVID-19 vaccines were found to be good.
