“…In our study, higher levels of education in each group of anglers were positively correlated with acceptance of vaccination and understanding of the need to reduce social contact. Therefore, it is reasonable to believe that the basis of pandemic behavior is more complex, as confirmed by other studies [ 71 ]. Ajzen [ 86 ] found that human attitudes have several components, including a behavioral component that is crucial to understanding the relationship between attitude and behavior.…”

“…At the same time, they were most likely to declare more frequent angling during the pandemic period. In light of previous research, such attitudes should be interpreted as a denial of pandemic threats [ 71 ]. The background to such attitudes is complex, and coronascepticism manifests itself in ignoring the threat and denying the sense of the restrictions being introduced [ 72 , 73 ].…”

Background: Anglers are a large social group with access to a “relatively safe” form of recreation, that allows the opportunity to relieve stress. An important question, however, is how they did so, and to what extent their perceived COVID-19 transition status influenced decisions both in life and at the fishing site. Aim: Our study aimed to determine the dynamics of anglers’ attitudes and behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of the different statuses of their exposure to the SARS-CoV-2 virus. We assumed that the behavior of anglers who have not experienced the disease (were not ill and not sure if ill) will be similar and, on the other hand, different from the behavior of those who have experienced COVID-19. Methods: The web-assisted interviews survey was used among 586 anglers with different COVID-19 disease experience statuses. Their pandemic behavior and activities by four age groups were studied using non-metric multidimensional scaling. Redundancy analysis has been used to identify the relationship between anglers’ life attitudes and socioeconomic and demographic factors, taking into account their preferences and involvement in fishing. Results: We have demonstrated that the behavior of anglers who have not experienced COVID-19 disease and do not present a reckless attitude toward pandemic threats, do not show significant differences from the life attitudes of the group experienced by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. These two groups comprise more than 70% of anglers. However, the rest show a lack of interest in an aware diagnosis of their health and a low level of acceptance of self-restraint in the area of direct social contact. Conclusions: Unawareness, combined with ignorance, could be a potential factor in the transmission of the virus while fishing. The behaviors of almost 30% of anglers are particularly risky when combined with a strong need to fish in the company of friends and familiar people. Anglers’ social identity should be tapped by fishery managers. Targeted educational campaigns should be aimed at groups around specific fishing spots. The need for self-limitation under the pandemic should be promoted for the benefit of the general public and to maintain the reputation of angling as a safe recreational activity.

“…Permasalahan yang ditemukan yaitu sebagian besar masyarakat masih belum memahami pencegahan penularan COVID-19 dimana salah satu pencegahan covid 19 yaitu penggunaan masker, cuci tangan pakai sabun, dan physical distancing serta masyarakat menganggap Covid 19 tidak berbahaya [6]. Masyarakat yang menganggap hal tersebut justru mempercepat penyebaran virus karena merasa dirinya kebal sehingga tidak menerapkan protokol kesehatan [7].…”

“…The extant research also suggests that fake news spreads "significantly farther, faster, deeper, and more broadly" than true news (Vosoughi et al, 2018(Vosoughi et al, , p. 1146 and has had major implications on society (Ingram, 2018). Furthermore, online narratives, particularly on social media, are fundamental to how people construct socially shared belief systems and can be the primary means to spread misinformation and influence health behaviors (Husna, 2021).…”

“…However, there is a lack of research on how misinformation shared on social media exacerbates the public's perception of health threats. Such an inquiry is warranted, especially during health pandemics, as false social media narratives about the origin or remedies can influence public health attitudes and behavior (Husna, 2021), potentially costing billions of dollars and numerous lives. For instance, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports a sharp increase in poisoning cases related to cleaners and disinfectants in the US after the Covid-19 outbreak 3 .…”

This study examines how misinformation related to Covid-19 on social media exacerbates individuals' perceptions of health threats. Informed by the Health Belief Model, we analyze over 5K fact-checked articles to identify different categories or topics of misinformation. We also analyze the veracity and temporal trends of the misinformation topics. Overall, thirteen topics emerged from our analysis, with most of the misinformation questioning the benefits of preventive actions and undermining the severity of the pandemic. We also found significant misinformation related to official sources such as health agencies and research institutes communicating about the pandemic. The findings have implications for social media and health research. Public health experts and policymakers might find insights helpful in designing better communication and intervention strategies to counter the false narrative about the pandemic. The study lays the ground to examine further motivations, mechanisms, and impacts of sharing health misinformation on social media.
