Abstract

One of the most important uncertainty problems encountered today is how to take action against the Covid-19 pandemic. The most important of these measures is undoubtedly vaccination. In this study, vaccination process implemented in Turkey Covidien-19 was analyzed. Intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets, which is an important mathematical model developed for uncertainty, were used for this analysis process. In addition, an algorithm has been proposed to better evaluate the obtained findings. As a result, with the increase in vaccinations, the number of people caught in the pandemic has decreased.
