BackgroundThe coronavirus illness is a highly contagious viral infection with serious health consequences that has occurred all around the world. Application of COVID-19 prevention precautions and social interventions by the general public are critical to successfully combating the epidemic. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the level of compliance and associated factors with COVID-19 prevention strategies.MethodsA facility based cross-sectional study was conducted from June 01 to August 30, 2021 on a sample of 380 randomly selected Ambo University community members. A self-administered structuralized questionnaire was used to collect the data. The determining factors with the level of compliance were finally identified using a multivariate logistic regression model. The association was reported using odds ratios with a 95% CI, and significance was declared using a P < 0.05.ResultsA total of 378 respondents participated in the study with a response rate of 98.9%. Most of the respondents, 75.7%, 57.9%, 47.4%, 61.9% had good knowledge, favorable attitude, good practice and good compliance toward COVID-19 preventive measures, respectively. In participants aged between 18 and 30 [AOR = AOR = 2.23, 95% CI: (1.13, 4.41)], good knowledge [AOR = 2.64, 95% CI: (1.46, 4.78)], favorable attitude [AOR = 4.5, 95% CI: (2.63, 7.71)], and good practice [AOR = 2.98, 95% CI: (1.82, 4.89)] were significantly associated with good compliance toward COVID-19 preventive measures.Conclusion and recommendationDespite the fact that COVID-19 is a global and national priority, the preventive measures were not sufficiently followed. Therefore, it is essential to continue working on the community's knowledge, practices, and attitude about COVID-19 preventive measures through media campaigns, which will ultimately increase compliance. Additionally, the concerned stakeholders should consider the required interventions for the strongly associated factors that have been discovered in this current study.

“…Furthermore, it is also recommended that touched surfaces and objects should be cleaned on a regular basis. These everyday preventive actions are mandatory under the current situation because of no proper vaccine yet discovered for the prevention of covid-19 (Kayrite, et al, 2020). Hence, it is mandatory for everyone to make sure that they are taking these everyday preventive actions to stop the spread of covid-19.…”

Background: The global pandemic of coronavirus has resulted in it causing several respiratory diseases. The mild common cold like illness is one of the major symptoms that represents the clinical presentation of the respiratory infection. Some patients can be asymptomatic while some might have characteristic symptoms in the form of coughs, dyspnoea, and fever. Mostly it affects people aged between 30 to 79 years. Major risk factors are people residing or travelling in the areas where risk of transmission is quite high, old age, and presence of comorbidities. The origin of the virus was linked to the Southern China’s Huanan wet market in Huanan. The pathophysiology has not yet been understood properly but the exudative diffuse alveolar is considered as the major reason behind the deaths due to respiratory failure. In order to control the spread there are four different ways currently: quarantine the contact for at least 14 days, screening of travellers, drive-through screening centres, and temperature screening. Isolation, infection management, and symptom management can be the most useful therapeutic approaches. Methodology: During this research, the systematic review has been done by referring to several studies that showed the data related to the diagnostic and therapeutic approach against Covid-19. During the research it has been -ensured that only the data from thighly qualified authors was used to determine the effective diagnostic and therapeutic options of Covid-19. The inclusion criteria were articles available in English language, the most recent and highly rated studies, and articles having statistics. The exclusion criteria were data which is available without clear statistics, articles other than those in the English language, data of high risk and low quality, and the data not able to provide the basic diagnostic and therapeutic options of Covid-19. It has been ensured that the quality of data should be maintained in order to establish quality research. Discussion: Covid-19 diagnostic options are oral and nasal PCR, rapid diagnostic test, serologic test, plain X-rays, Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), CT scanning, ultrasonography, and nuclear scanning. The therapeutic options are pharmacological drugs (like chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, corticosteroids, sirolimus, tocilizumab), airway assistance ventilation, and vaccination. Conclusion: Covid-19 is on the verge of constant increase and is impacting many people around the globe. Currently, there is no proper treatment for covid-19 as a result of which everyday preventive actions and vaccination are the best things that an individual can do in order to prevent the spread of covid-19.
