Objective : Swift desirability of people have arisen towards YouTube videos for keeping abreast of the ever-evolving situation with COVID-19 occurrence. We aimed to determine easy to understand and educationally beneficial 'awareness videos' of COVID-19 available on YouTube, based on the viewers' engagement. Methods: We gathered YouTube videos using the phrases 'COVID-19 awareness' and 'Coronavirus knowledge'. Information retrieved included the author's and or publisher's name, the total number of watchers, likes, dislikes, and comments. Educationally useful videos about COVID-19 awareness were recognized based on the viewers' engagement. Videos with correct knowledgeable content were sorted out from impractical videos. Different variables were measured and correlated for the data analysis. Findings: Out of a total of 41 retrieved videos, only 15 (36.58%) were shortlisted. Upon further extensive evaluation, 10 (66.67%) were found to have excellent audio-visual content, carrying outstanding awareness, hence designated as educationally useful content. The total likes of all the 10 videos and the number of views/days showed a statistically significant correlation (r=0.91, P= 0.000). Also, a significant correlation was found between the total dislikes and views/day, likes/day, but with the association and with the score of the video, and the merits of the video were not significant. Novelty: In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, information gathering through online resources has risen. YouTube undoubtedly attracted a very high viewership. People from all professions started to seek and collect essential information about the COVID-19. A remarkable feature of this study was it permitted laymen and healthcare workers in the community to be aware of the ever-changing issue associated with COVID-19. Moreover, it made easy access to the educational videos available on the topic, making it a trendsetter study in the region.

Bu çalışmada, Covid-19 pandemi döneminde karantina sürecine girmiş kişilerin, pandemi ile ilgili olarak internet haber siteleri ve özellikle sosyal medya platformlarında yayımlanan bilgilerin doğru ve güvenirliliğine ilişkin görüşleri incelenmiştir. Bir yılı aşkın süredir küresel çapta etkili olan Covid-19 pandemisi sürecinde, internet haber sitelerinde ve sosyal medya kanallarında yoğun ve kesintisiz bilgi paylaşımları yapılmakta; bu paylaşımların bazılarının doğruluğu kanıtlanabilirken, bazıları ise anonim kalmakta ve güvenilir bir kaynağa dayandırılamamaktadır. Salgının kendisi kadar önemli ve müdahale edilmesi gereken bir kavram olan infodemi (yanlış bilgi ve dezenformasyon salgını), özellikle internetin sağladığı kolaylıklar neticesinde küresel düzeyde bir halk sağlığı sorunu olarak ortaya çıkmıştır. İlgili literatürde, pandemiye ilişkin yayımlanan haberler ve sosyal medya paylaşımları üzerine analizler yapıldığı ve insanlarla pandemi sürecine ilişkin anket uygulamalarının gerçekleştirildiği tespit edilmiştir. Fakat karantina sürecine girmiş kişilerle gerçekleştirilen çalışmaların eksik oluşu, bu araştırmanın önemini oluşturmaktadır. Covid-19 pandemisi döneminde karantina sürecine giren insanların, internet haber siteleri ve özellikle sosyal medya üzerinden yayımlanan bilgilerin doğru ve güvenirliliğine ilişkin görüşlerini incelemeyi amaçlayan bu çalışmada, veri toplamak amacıyla yapılandırılmış görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Görüşmelere katılan kişiler, birbirinden farklı demografik özelliklere sahip, 5 kadın ve 5 erkek olmak üzere toplam 10 katılımcıdan oluşmaktadır. Görüşmeler sonucunda katılımcıların, karantina süreçlerinde internet kullanım oranlarının arttığını ve pandemiye ilişkin 'felaket senaryolarının' ise insanları korkutmak amaçlı çıkartıldığını düşündüğünü belirtmiştir. Katılımcılar ayrıca internet ve sosyal medyadan edindikleri bilgiler çerçevesinde Covid-19 aşısına çok güvenmediklerini ve aşı hakkında çıkan olumsuz söylentiler nedeniyle aşı olmak istemediklerini ifade etmiştir.
