Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Effective communication is a critical component of managing pandemic outbreaks like COVID-19. This study explores COVID-19 related public knowledge, perceptions, belief in public health recommendations, intent to comply with public health recommendations, trust in information sources and preferred information sources. Participants are invited to include detailed free-text answers to make sure their COVID-19 experiences are heard.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The survey is available online in 23 languages. Free-text responses in native languages are highly encouraged. A robust global response will not only provide invaluable information to inform clinicians, healthcare institutions and governments about how to optimize the content and venue of COVID-19 messaging, but will help write a Story of COVID in the words and languages of people from all over the world.
