The next big step in combating the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic will be gaining widespread acceptance of a vaccination campaign for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), but achieving high uptake need proper understandings. Many health professionals, researchers, statisticians, and programmers to track the viruses spread in different parts of the world have used various methods. However, the proliferation of vaccines produced by talented scientists around the world has sparked a strong desire to extract meaningful insights from available data. Until now, several vaccines against coronavirus disease (COVID-19) have been approved and are being distributed worldwide in various regions. This study aims to report the detailed data analysis and result-oriented storytelling of the COVID-19 vaccination program of different countries across the globe. To analyze the vaccination trend globally this research utilized two different open datasets provided by ourworldindata.org and worldometers.info. An exploratory data analysis (EDA) with interactive data visualization using various python libraries was conducted, and the results are presented in this article to better understand the impact of ongoing vaccination programs around the world. Apart from the valuable insights gained from the data of various countries, this investigation also included a comparison of the number of confirmed and death cases before and after vaccination to determine the efficacy of each vaccine in each country. The results show that a large number of people are still undecided about whether or not to get a COVID-19 vaccine, despite the virus's continued devastating effects on communities. Overall, our findings contribute to ongoing research aimed at informing policy on how to persuade the unvaccinated to be vaccinated.
