Students, Technical Institute Of Babylon, Corona VirusAbstract
The world witnessed a great disaster, after the World Health Organization announced on March 11, 2020 an outbreak of the Corona epidemic in the world, as a result of which life was disrupted in general, and all mankind was confined to their homes for fear of contracting this global epidemic, at that time there was no medicine or A vaccine can limit the spread or infection of this disease. In order to get rid of this epidemic, international pharmaceutical companies have adopted the discovery of an effective vaccine free of side effects, which is the key to survival, so that life can be restored to humanity again. After the availability of vaccines of all kinds, and it became possible for anyone to obtain them for free, a new problem arose, which is that many members of society did not accept the idea of vaccination for reasons that were raised and promoted among the different segments of society, until the vaccination centers in the Iraqi Ministry of Health became empty of visitors. This is what the current study dealt with by conducting an electronic questionnaire through the Google Form program for a segment of the students of the Technical Institute of Babylon affiliated with Al-Furat Al-Awsat Technical University for the year 2021, as the results showed that 65.7% of the students of the Technical Institute of Babylon refused to take the vaccine, while the remaining percentage was 34.3 % took the vaccine. The results were explained by the fact that social networks and the beliefs that were spread at the time caused students to refuse immunization.
