Abstract The covid-19 pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, was first discovered in Wuhan, China in December 2019. The swift dissemination of the virus on a global scale resulted in a worldwide health emergency. The global response to the covid-19 pandemic has been multifaceted with vaccination efforts playing a crucial role in mitigating the impact of the disease. The initiation of covid-19 vaccination campaigns across the world represents a significant public health strategy aimed at controlling the spread of SARS-CoV-2 and achieving immunity. To study the impact of covid-19 infection and vaccination on health and eating habits of study subjects. This descriptive study was conducted among residents of Hyderabad that are vaccinated against covid-19 infection. The size of the sample was 200. The data was collected by using offline questionnaire. Methods used in this study include a detailed questionnaire. Data was analysed by using frequency distribution and chi-square test. The study reveals that 51% of the subjects were female while 49% were male. Among the subjects, 38.5% reported that covid-19 infection and vaccination impacted their diet. Study reveals that 42.5% subjects suffered from potential side effects after vaccination while 57.5% did not suffer. Among the subjects, 80.5% people agreed that vaccines prevent spread of covid-19 infection while 19.5% disagreed to it. Statistical analysis demonstrated no associations between dietary changes during infection & after vaccination and infected before vaccination & belief in vaccine effectiveness. Based on the study, covid-19 infection and vaccination has varied impacts on people’s health and eating habits. While majority of participants (61.5%) did not experience significant changes in their dietary habits due to the infection, a notable portion (38.5%) did report alterations, such as adopting special diets or avoiding certain foods. After vaccination, most participants (65.5%) maintained their usual food intake, though some reported an increase (23%) or decrease (11.5%) in consumption. The findings suggest that while covid-19 and vaccination influenced some aspects of diet and health, the overall impact on eating habits was not uniform across all the individuals.
Keywords Covid-19, vaccination, dietary changes, statistical analysis, impact of Covid vaccine.
