Summary:A real threat to the people of the world has appeared as a result of the spread of the Coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) disease. A lot of scientific and financial support has been made to devote vaccines capable of ending this epidemic. However, these vaccines have become a subject of debate between individuals, as some people tend to support taking vaccines and others rejecting them. This paper aims to create a framework model to classify the sentiment and opinions of individuals that published in Twitter regarding the COVID-19 vaccines. Identify those opinions can help public health institutions to know public opinions and direct their efforts towards promoting taking vaccinations. Two of the machines learning classification models which are the support vector machine (SVM) and naive Bayes (NB) classifier are applied here. Other pre-processing methods were applied as well to filter unstructured tweets.
