Abstract
This study aims to investigate the prevalence of Adverse Events Following
Immunization infection among health workers in the Hulu Sungai Utara
Regency following two doses of CoronaVac. The study takes a descriptive
research method. This research data is taken from two hundred fifty-eight
individuals who indicated their willingness to participate in the study. 99
health workers (38.37%) had a history of AEFI at the first and second doses,
with symptoms of malaise (36.36%), local pain (32.32%), and fever (22.22%)
with an onset of 1–5 days (24.81%), and the majority did not require treatment
(72.48 %). The study results showed that almost all health care professionals
developed AEFI, both local and systemic, following the third immunization
dosage. 257 health care workers (99.6 %) reported experiencing local AEFIs,
with pain (95.35 %), swelling (37.60 %), and a red rash (37.60 %). Systemic
AEFI was diagnosed in 239 health care workers (92.63 %), with the most
common systemic reaction being arthralgia, myalgia (70.54 %), fever (62.02
%), and malaise (38.37 %). The response length was between 1 and 5 days
(74.03 %), and 195 health workers (75.58 %) took NSAIDs to alleviate the
reaction.
