الوصف: Vaccines might potentially cause side effects as any other drugs, which needs to be investigated and analyzed to identify the public safety concerns. The massive vaccination rollout against COVID-19 provoked discussion among people through social media platforms. Twitter (X), a popular social media platform, plays a significant role in disseminating information about COVID-19 vaccines and monitoring people’s reports regarding vaccination side effects. The aim of this study is to mine Twitter (X) to identify self-reported side effects related to COVID-19 vaccines in Arabic language, compare their distribution among six vaccine types, and construct Arabic lexicon of symptoms. We collected the tweets posts in Arabic language after the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines, then we developed a workflow for identifying self-report symptoms using biterm topic modeling (BTM) and support vector machine (SVM) to extract the symptoms then cluster them in groups based on their co-occurrence. A total of 51 symptoms were extracted from 65,387 tweets that were reported 148,324 times. We performed a more in-depth analysis to investigate the symptoms that tend to occur simultaneously. The results show that the symptoms that more likely to occur together may indicate to a particular connection. The findings suggested that the social media conversation can provide a comprehensive depiction of symptoms that may complement what identified in clinical studies.
