Source abstract
In order to help curb the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, this paper develops a multi-attribute decision-making framework for COVID-19 vaccine evaluation based on their major clinical characteristics and efficacy. Firstly, a new multi-criteria Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) modification has been constructed in an interval-valued Fermatean fuzzy (IVFF) environment, improving the shortcomings of traditional TOPSIS. Secondly, a new conceptual framework for static and dynamic evaluation of COVID-19 vaccines has been built. The proposed methodology incorporates a variety of crisp and fuzzy MCDM methods. The analysis of the results of two practical examples shows that the new framework for vaccine comparison is feasible and effective, and finally, some recommendations for enhancement of government anti-COVID-19 strategies are suggested.
