It is known that the use of personal protective equipment is effective in preventing the spread of COVID-19. The purpose of this study is to reveal the relationship between personal protection behaviors and fear levels of healthcare professionals who are vaccinated against COVID-19. This descriptive and correlational study was carried out between February and April 2021 using an online questionnaire with 103 healthcare professionals who were actively involved in the COVID-19 pandemic period in a hospital in Istanbul. The data were obtained using a "Participant Information Form" consisting of 19 items and the "Fear of COVID-19 Scale". The mean Fear of COVID-19 Scale score of the participants was 17.82±6.29 (min=7, max=33), and they had a moderate fear of COVID-19. No relationship was found between the use of gloves, masks, and disposable gowns by the participants before they had been vaccinated and their levels of fear of COVID-19. It was demonstrated that the vaccine had no effect on fear of COVID-19 and personal protective behaviors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
