“…Entretanto, 8,20% das gestantes, nesta pesquisa, afirmaram que não receberam informações sobre medidas de prevenção e proteção contra o vírus. Em contrapartida, um estudo realizado na Alemanha, obteve percentuais menores sobre a falta de informação, sendo que 3% dos participantes apontaram a necessidade de ser mais informados e 0,6% afirmaram que estavam ''muito mal'' informados sobre a pandemia e a Covid-19 (Führer et al, 2020). Essa divergência entre os dados da nossa pesquisa e os da Alemanha, pode ser explicada pela diferença entre a população, uma vez que esta pesquisa foi realizada com gestantes do interior do Estado de São Paulo e o outro estudo foi realizado em participantes adultos do sexo masculino e feminino de Schleswig-Holstein, Saxônia-Anhalt e Berlim.…”

Introdução: O período gravídico é evidenciado por modificações, que incluem alterações físicas, psicológicas e sociais em gestantes. Objetivo: Verificar a ansiedade e a depressão no contexto da pandemia e a relação com os mecanismos de defesa das gestantes para que estratégias de enfrentamento com assistência profissional sejam elaboradas. Método: Estudo transversal com delineamento descritivo, abordagem quantitativa do tipo analítica, com correlação entre variáveis, desenvolvido em um Centro Especializado Materno Infantil (CEMI) e no setor de emergência obstétrica de um hospital, ambos no interior de São Paulo. Participaram do estudo 61 gestantes, sendo 30 do CEMI e 31 da emergência obstétrica, com idade igual ou maior a 18 anos. Os dados foram coletados por meio de dois questionários, sendo um com dados sociodemográficos e outro com questões abertas e fechadas sobre mecanismos de defesa positivos e negativos. Para avaliar os sintomas de ansiedade e depressão, foi utilizado a Escala Hospitalar de Ansiedade e Depressão, dados que foram analisados de forma descritiva e inferencial. Resultados: Constatou-se que 29,51% das gestantes apresentaram sintomas de ansiedade e 24,59% sintomas de depressão. Das gestantes que apresentaram depressão, 66,67% encontravam-se na emergência obstétrica. Verificou-se que 14,75% afirmaram que consumiram bebida alcoólica ou drogas ilícitas no período de pandemia COVID-19, 45,90% das gestantes não realizaram atividade física no período da pandemia e 49,18% tiveram dificuldade para dormir. Conclusão: Os resultados do estudo mostram que parte das gestantes apresentam uma situação de vulnerabilidade relacionada à saúde mental prejudicada e alterações na rotina acentuadas no atual período pandêmico.

“…Our study fills in this gap. While a few studies have provided evidence of the knowledge on COVID-19 for Germany, [7] Iran, [8] and Egypt and Nigeria, [9] they did not focus on health-care workers, but on the general public instead. These and other studies [10] have also analyzed risk perception regarding COVID-19, as well as attitudes and emotional concern.…”

Objective: To determine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on healthcare workers and healthcare students in higher education and to assess their clinical knowledge, media use, risk perception, perception of governmental measures, and adherence to preventive guidelines to provide policymakers with field-based evidence.Methods: This cross-sectional quantitative survey was conducted by two-stage cluster sampling among Swiss healthcare workers, who performed patient care during the first pandemic wave, and who also pursued an education at a university of applied sciences at the same time (a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in nursing or an executive degree in healthcare). 75 individuals participated between 5th May and 1st June 2020. Their data was analyzed by bivariate hypothesis testing and multiple logistic regression.Results: Considerable levels of task-related and emotional stress were prevalent, accompanied by a large proportion of respondents who did not have sufficient protective materials or necessary decisions in place to effectively protect themselves or others from infection with COVID-19. Knowledge was considerably limited, especially regarding the efficacy of standard hygiene as a preventive measure. The preparation of the government and the healthcare sector was perceived as insufficient.Conclusions: Comprehensive management of infodemic challenges and foresighted development of education, human resources, clinical processes, and protective materials are highly recommended.

“…Researchers around the world have been actively conducting COVID-19 surveys. Research on the perception of COVID-19 risk mainly focuses on the following 3 aspects: (1) the influencing factors of risk perception (eg, personality characteristics, knowledge level, and health and economy status) and their relationship with protective behaviors [15][16][17]; (2) the risk perceptions of COVID-19 among special populations, such as college students under quarantine, medical students, patients with COVID-19, health care professionals, and pregnant women [18][19][20][21][22]; and (3) the impact of risk perception on social distancing and the mental health of the public or health workers (eg, anxiety and distress) [23][24][25][26][27]. However, there are few studies on the American public's risk perception of COVID-19.…”

BACKGROUND The period of the rapid spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in the United States made people uncertain about their perception of the threat from COVID-19 and the response measures. To mount an effective response to this epidemic, it is necessary to understand the public's perceptions, behaviors and attitudes. OBJECTIVE To test hypotheses that the perception of a threat from COVID-19 influences attitudes and behaviors. METHODS This study used an open dataset of online questionnaires about COVID-19 provided by Nexoid, and selected the results of a questionnaire on behaviors, attitudes and perceptions related to COVID-19 among the US public from March 29 to April 20, 2020. In the end, a total of 466497 people living in the United States took part in the survey. RESULTS The average self-assessed probability of contracting COVID-19 in this study was 36.48%, and 43.5% of the respondents thought their chance of getting COVID-19 was less than 30%. The predicted mean self-assessed probability of contracting COVID-19 among males was 96.97% lower than that among females. Furthermore, compared with those who had close contact with less than 10 people, those who were in close contact with more than 10 people had a 67019.89% higher predicted mean self-assessed probability of contracting COVID-19 (b=6.51, P<0.001). Those who were engaged in critical work (b=7.90, P<0.001) had a mean self-assessed probability of contracting COVID-19 that was 270653.14% higher than that of those who worked at home. The odds of reporting disagreement with taking measures to reduce their personal risk were 14%, 17% and 29% lower for participants from states reporting 10001 to 20000 cases (OR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.79-0.94), 20001 to 40000 cases (OR=0.83, 95% CI: 0.75-0.91) and over 40001 COVID-19 cases (OR=0.71, 95% CI: 0.59-0.84), respectively, compared to those living in states with 1001 to 5000 cases. CONCLUSIONS This survey is the first attempt to describe on a large scale the determinants of the US public's perception of the threat from COVID-19. The self-assessed probability of contracting COVID-19 differed significantly based on the respondents’ gender, state of residence, age, BMI, smoking habit, alcohol consumption, drug use, disease, environment and behaviors. These findings have certain value as a reference for public health policy makers and healthcare workers seeking to identify target populations for COVID-19 prevention and health education.
