“…The change was a result of various push and pull factors. Fear of infection (Kim, 2021), restrictions on mobility imposed by local government authorities (Abulibdeh and Mansour, 2022), and increasing cinema ticket prices (Donar and Aydan, 2022) are all pushing factors. These factors forced people to stay at home and brought a change in entertainment content consumption.…”

Over-the-top platforms are increasingly being accepted by the younger generation. This study examines the different modes of watching films that have emerged due to the proliferation of over-the-top platforms, smartphones, and 5G technologies during the pandemic period in China. Using survey data, we examine the perception and behavior of 592 respondents. The top five factors in increasing over-the-top platforms to watch movies include easy access, various genres, no time to visit a cinema, pandemic, and new films. Findings also show that users tend to use smartphones to access over-the-top platforms. Bilibili, Tencent Video, and iQIYI are China's most popular over-the-top platforms among viewers. Increasing cinema ticket prices, pandemics, lack of quality content, and film stories are significant challenges for the cinema industry in the near future. These results suggest that the film industry should maintain the quality of the movies, especially those released on the cinema screen. These findings also designate significant substitution between the over-the-top platform and cinema and recommend that competition authorities widen market definitions. The cinema environment and IMAX/3D appear to have little incentive to degrade over-the-top platforms, despite over-the-top's films contributing to declining box office revenue.

Introduction: Healthy lifestyle behaviors are accepted as non-pharmacological approaches in the management of diseases. During the pandemic, individuals started to use the internet to get information and protect their health. Methods: The identified healthy lifestyle terms were searched in the Google Trends (GT) for the last five years in five countries. Analysis: We use Kruskal-Wallis, Dunn's test and Mann Whitney U test. Results: While there was a decrease in the frequency of searches for healthy nutrition after the pandemic compared to before the pandemic in Turkiye, the USA and the UK, there was an increase in Brazil. The increase frequency of searches for alcohol cessation after the pandemic was statistically significant in the USA, Brazil and the UK. In Turkiye, the USA, Brazil, the increase in the frequency of searches for the physical exercise topic after the pandemic compared to before the pandemic was statistically significant. Conclusion: It can be concluded that during the pandemic, there was a significant increase in public interest in most of the healthy lifestyle terms in the five countries identified and there was an awareness to adopt a healthy lifestyle.

“…8 We can say that Covid-19 also has created similar effects on societies and is effective in many areas of lifestyle, behaviours, health policies, resources and socioeconomic changes. 9 When we evaluate the pandemics from the past to the present, we can foreseen that pandemics such as Covid-19 will continue to exist in the future as well. Such these pandemics mostly reach a global size, starting from the local and unnoticed in the first place.…”

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to discuss the need for an early warning system in order to prevent a new epidemic that may occur in the future and, if necessary, which system will be and how this warning system will be designed. Methods: A qualitative analysis through the World HealthOrganization (WHO) documents, an interview with a key expert, and a policy transfer analysis was conducted.Results: An early warning system is needed for new outbreaks that may occur in the future. We have seen that the Early Warning Alert and Response system (EWARs), which is implemented by WHO as a policy transfer in Syria, is successful in this area and the system can be easily adapted and established. The implementation of the system in Syria and the successful performance of the early warning system can be systematically transferred to other regions of the world with the policy transfer approach as a public health policy and the implementation phases in the study. The successful transfer of EWARs from WHO to Syria provides a good sample for the integration of a system developed by international and/or non-governmental organizations into an administration system of a state under pandemic and crises conditions.
