Abstract: 
At the close of 2019, a global health crisis known as COVID-19, or coronavirus (2019-nCoV), broke out. Vaccination is used as a means of prevention. The COVID-19 vaccines may be categorized into four groups: viral vector, entire virus, subunit protein, and nucleic vaccines. Upon evaluating the advantages of vaccinations, it becomes evident that there are adverse side effects that may develop. Bell's palsy is regarded as a significant adverse reaction after immunization. This observational essay aims to consolidate knowledge about the SARS-CoV-2 infection and its association with the risk of Bell's palsy after COVID-19 vaccination.
