A library study was conducted on some literature using a qualitative descriptive approach. The results showed that the limited supply of vaccines hindered the success of vaccination. Furthermore, the insufficient availability of the lawful and holy Covid-19 vaccine was also a problem encountered, hence the Fatwa Commission of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) issued fatwa Number 14 of 2021.
