Covid Vaccination Awareness Quiz

IPA-MSB-SF kickstarted the new academic year by organizing a quiz in July 2021. This was called 'The Covid-19 Vaccination Quiz', and was organized by the Pharmacy Education Office (PEO) of the IPA-MSB-SF, in collaboration with Mumbai Educational Trust (MET).

The quiz was organized with the aim to spread awareness about the importance of COVID-19 vaccination, to give general information and also, to break some myths about vaccination and COVID-19 Vaccines.The questions ranged from the basics of vaccination to important factoids about the COVID-19 Vaccines. It was open to people from all backgrounds. People from various institutions, universities, and companies, and different fields of study participated in the quiz. An appreciable 800 responses were received on the first day of release of the quiz, and over 5000 responses by the end of August. Over 85% of the quiz-takers were students from various disciplines. However, there were also many teachers, service professionals and homemakers, who attempted the quiz. The data collected by the quiz showed that over 65% of the quiz-takers were vaccinated, of whom most were given the Covishield vaccine. We can infer that the unvaccinated percentage of the quiz-takers are now equipped with the necessary knowledge about vaccines, and will be convinced to take the vaccine sooner than later. To those who were already vaccinated, this quiz had been insightful, and full of knowledge they're bound to use in future.

IPA-MSB-SF prides itself on the vast reach of its Covid-19 Vaccination Quiz, because it has taken us one step closer to winning the fight against Covid.
