After registering for NYSC mobilization, you're required to do online COVID-19 registration. If you're hearing this for the first time, you're likely going to be confused. Is this registration the same as taking the COVID-19 injection? Does it cover taking the vaccination?
Purpose of NYSC COVID-19 Testing
First, be informed that the test doesn't involve going to a hospital or getting some vaccinations. This test is a form of precaution put in place by NYSC to be sure that prospective corps members understand that COVID-19 is real.
And also to assess to what extent he has been careful in dealing with the pandemic.

However, starting from the 2022 NYSC Mobilization, every prospective corps member is expected to have taken the first or two doses of the Covid-19 injections before proceeding to camp. And that should be answered with AFFIRMATIVE YES while filling out the online Covid-19 questionnaires.
A prospective corp member is expected to just fill out a form (questionnaire) on her dashboard and print, after the submission, a report to be submitted at the camp.

Although a few questions in the form are directly requesting prospective corpers to state if they've been vaccinated or otherwise. You're to state if done or not. Answering NO doesn't mean you won't be allowed to serve or go to the camp. You may just be subjected to the vaccination before entering the camp or at the point of registration at the camp.
If you state YES, you may be asked to provide evidence of your vaccination (card) before being trusted and permitted to camp.
