Background. Since it was first discovered, Covid-19 has spread throughout the world and has been declared a pandemic by the WHO. Various efforts have been made by many countries to prevent the spread of Covid-19, one of which is the development of the Covid-19 vaccine. One of the vaccines developed and used by the Indonesian government is the Sinovac vaccine. However, like vaccines in general, there are always vaccine safety problems which are better known as Adverse Events Following Immunization (AEFI). Objective. The purpose of this study was to determine the manifestations of AEFI that occurred in Sinovac vaccination participants at Wirasakti Hospital, Kupang. Materials and Methods. The number of samples taken were 51 people, who later became known as research subjects. The criteria for vaccine recipients and instructions for recording AEFIs refer to the technical guidelines issued by the Ministry of Health, namely the Decree of the Director General of Disease Prevention and Control Number HK.02.02 / 4/1/2021 Regarding Technical Instructions for Implementation of Vaccination in the Context of Combating Pandemic Corona Virus Disease 2019 (Covid-19). Result. Showed that out of 198 vaccination participants, 15 of them had AEFI and all of the participants who had AEFI were women. The manifestations of AEFI that occur are dizziness, palpitations, shortness of breath, cramps in the hands and trembling hands. All AEFIs that have occurred are non-serious in nature.
