Principle Researcher, [Dr. Kate Faasse][1] is currently completing a related study in Australia is being assisted in managing the collaborative project by [Dr. Jon Grahe][2] who has completed some collaborative projects in the past and is currently living near an outbreak in the US.
Given the current rate of infection, and the severity of the Coronavirus Covid-19, we are creating a short term study measuring attitudes related to the risks associated with getting the virus.
This study seeks to understand the perceptions of the US public about the novel coronavirus strain (COVID-19) that was first identified in Wuhan, China in late 2019. This online survey will assess participants’ knowledge of the virus, their perceived risk of infection, anxiety about the virus, trust in information and information sources, misinformation, and behavioural responses to the outbreak. Assessing perceptions and behavioural responses of the general public during emerging infectious disease outbreaks is useful both in informing health risk communication strategies, and in encouraging successful changes in public protective behaviours.
