syndrome coronavirus 2. The first case was identified in December 2019. Since then, it has spread all
over the world, World Health Organization (WHO) declared a pandemic on March 11, 2020. Several
pharmaceutical companies developed the COVID-19 vaccine very quickly and finally received the
world's first vaccination in the United Kingdom (UK) on December 8, 2020. Since the COVID-19 vaccine
is needed by all countries around the world, fair supply is an important issue. To solve this problem, co-
