Abstract

When COVID-19 vaccines got authorization for emergency administration in order to attain immunity of the population against the pandemic in India, the Government rushed the people to get vaccinated. But two years into being vaccinated with the primary doses, the efficacy of the doses decreased and infection with COVID increased. The Government of India introduced the precaution dose on 10^th January, 2022, but not much vaccination turn out is observed in case of precaution dose. India is facing what is known as vaccination fatigue which is causing vaccination hesitancy. This study identified the causes of vaccination fatigue among the adult population in the state of Assam, the primary cause being pandemic fatigue. With the increase in COVID cases worldwide, The Government should implement necessary steps to conquer the vaccination fatigue and decrease the vaccination hesitancy in the state.
