An attempt was made through this web based survey to outline the awareness among public regarding COVID-19 preventive measures and life style modifications adopted by them to combat the disease. Online survey structured questionnaires in 3 sections designed by academicians (pharmacy) and medical practitioners and developed using Google forms with an automatic consent placed and followed by questions. A snowball sampling technique was used to conduct the survey. Total 500 people were participated in the survey. Demographics included people from different age groups and various socioeconomic back grounds. Most of the participants were aware of the COVID-19 and had knowledge of necessary measures to combat the virus. Preventive practices like hand sanitization and use of face mask, vitamin supplements and homemade ayurvedic remedies were incorporated with some working style modifications in their day to day life by many of the participants. This web based survey concluded that COVID-19 has brought out many changes in the lives of people and in the light of recurrence of COVID-19, the implications of the present study are useful and throw light on practices to be adopted in current scenario and identifying the gaps that are needed to be filled. |
