This study uses the prospective cross-sectional method. A valid questionnaire was used in this study with Cronbach alpha 0,8. Those participants filled out the google form which was shared through social media. It was found that males 194 and females 262. A significant correlation was found between AEFI and Efficacy with gender, comorbidities, age, and BMI (p value<0,05). 63,04% of participants had pain in the injection area and 44,88% of them had pain in the upper arm after vaccination.
