Abstract
Whether to take vaccines or not is a controversial topic on Twitter. This paper will focus on the California, USA and find if there is a relationship between people's attitudes toward vaccines on Twitter and the rate of increase in the number of the primary series administrated. The relationship then can be trained as a model to predict the rate of increase in the number of booster shots administrated in the US by performing sentiment analysis on the current Twitter comments regarding the booster shots. NLP techniques will be applied on tweets, and machine learning techniques will be used to find the relationship and make the prediction.
