There were positive correlation between Stress Level after COVID-19 Vaccine receipt and Perception of adverse effects after receipt of COVID-19 vaccination (r=0.665) and a negative correlation between Vaccine related knowledge and Perception of adverse effects after receipt of COVID-19 vaccination (r=-0.228). Predictive factors of Perception of adverse effects after receipt of COVID-19 vaccination were gender (Bate=.157, p<0.01) and Stress Level after COVID-19 Vaccine receipt (Bate=.662, p<0.01). Conclusion: COVID-19 related participants knowledge about the COVID-19 was at a moderate level , participants stress level after COVID-19 vaccine was at a low level and participants perception of adverse effects after receipt of COVID-19 vaccination was low.
