“…A scoping review discovered several determinant factors influencing the adoption of COVID-19 preventive behaviors, including socio-demographic factors (age, gender, and education level), social psychological factors (perceived severity, barriers, benefits, susceptibility, self-efficacy), knowledge about COVID-19, health status factor (family or personal), and enabling factors (lack of government push, media exposure, access to information, access to healthcare, and social support).

BACKGROUND: Enforcement of the movement control order (MCO) in Malaysia caused by COVID-19 impacted people's health, social, behaviors, and economic consequences. Thus, this study aims to identify adults’ lifestyle and preventive behaviors during the MCO's early phase. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study was conducted in April 2020 using a convenience sampling technique. A total of 9987 adults aged 18 years and above from all over Malaysia participated in the study. The questionnaire was distributed through online platforms, such as Facebook, Telegram, WhatsApp, and the official website. Descriptive statistics and Chi-square test were used to describe the categorical data and the independent T-test and one-way ANOVA tests were performed to compare continuous variables between two or more groups. The level of statistical significance was set at P < .05. RESULTS: Selangor showed the highest participation (28.4%) and most of the respondents were females (68.2%), married (67.8%), and aged between 36 and 45 years old (34.1%). This study found that 10.3% were smokers, and 46.7% of the smokers intended to quit smoking. Most respondents took their three main meals daily (72.4%), but not even half completed daily food groups (45.1%). The frequent activities were internet surfing (18.8%) and house chores (18.2%). Almost 98% of the respondents agreed to implement preventive behaviors. This study also revealed that attitudes toward preventive behaviors significantly differed across genders, age groups, categories of marital status, and monthly income categories ( P < .05). Furthermore, regarding readiness for behavior change after MCO end, only gender shows a significance difference ( P < .05). CONCLUSION: This study shed light on understanding public behavior during the early phase of the pandemic that may significantly impact public health in designing relevant regulations and policies to reduce the spread of COVID-19 infections and preparing strategies for future outbreaks or pandemics. As COVID-19 evolves, continuous efforts to promote positive behavioral changes in lifestyle and preventive behavior are needed to ensure the public practices a healthy lifestyle and complies with pandemic preventive measures.

“…COVID-19 preventive behavior includes personal and community preventive measures, immune boosting, and self-screening/medication. In addition, factors related to these measures involve sociodemographic, sociopsychological, health status, and enabling factors [9]. According to Mahdi, 2021, we should consider medical students as leaders and guides in the health system for increased planning and education of the population for COVID-19 vaccine acceptability [10].…”

BACKGROUND: Vaccines are one of the best interventions developed for eradicating COVID-19. In Albania, COVID-19 vaccination uses different types of vaccines: Pfizer, AstraZeneca, CoronaVac, and Sputnik V. Like any other vaccine, these have side effects too. AIM: This study was carried out to identify the perception of the side effects of vaccines. METHODS: A quantitative study using a cross-sectional survey was conducted between April and September 2021 to collect data on the effects of the COVID-19 vaccine among individuals in Shkodra region. Data were collected online through a self-administered survey created on Google Forms which had been randomly delivered to individuals (aged ≥18 years) using social media sites (Email and WhatsApp). All data collected were analyzed with Microsoft Office Excel 2010, using the exact Fisher’s test and ꭓ² test. RESULTS: This study included 292 citizens, out of which 200 were female and 92 were male; 62% were from urban areas and 38% from rural areas of Shkodra region. The random sample of the citizens who took part in this study is 44.5% (18−30 years old). A massive percentage of the participants, 66.4%, had received the second dose of the vaccine. Our study shows that 55.8% of these citizens have had side effects after the first vaccination dose, and only 43.8% have had side effects after the second dose. About 80.6% of the participants were well informed about the type of vaccine they got. CONCLUSIONS: Side effects from vaccines were reported. Injection site pain and fatigue were the most common first dose side effects (55.8%). The same side effects were reported for the second dose. The side effects were presented during the first 12 h after the vaccination in most cases. Side effects were more prevalent in people >50 years old. Older people have a higher probability to have more side effects from the COVID vaccine. There is no statistically significant relationship between gender and the presence of the side effect from the COVID vaccine. People living in urban areas have a higher probability to have side effect from COVID vaccine comparing with people living in rural areas. People being vaccinated with Pfizer vaccine have a higher probability to admit the presence of side effects.

COVID-19 preventive behavior is crucial for reducing the spread of COVID-19 infection. During the pandemic, digital media can be used to educate on the behavior. Therefore, it is imperative to study COVID-19 preventive behavior and digital media. Despite extensive examinations on this matter, a distinct lack of bibliometric exploration has been observed. This study involves a bibliometric analysis utilizing data obtained from the Scopus database. Following a comprehensive search and screening procedure, our research examined a total of 68 articles. The findings indicate that Liu, Romer, and Jamieson emerge as the most influential researchers in the realm of studies focused on COVID-19 preventive behavior and digital media. The US and China are observed as the most referenced countries for research on COVID-19 preventive behavior and digital media. The International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, PLoS ONE, and the Journal of Medical Internet Research stand out as the three most productive and referenced journals in studies relating to this research topic. Concerning the state of the art, fundamentally, existing research refers to five major topics: the influence of Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) factors, the influence of COVID-19 coverage (infodemiology), the influence of media exposure/information and Health Belief Model (HBM) factors, the influence of e-health literacy, knowledge, and attitude, and the role of digital media in public health intervention strategy to prevent the spread of COVID-19. In conclusion, this bibliometric study sheds light on the multifaceted landscape of COVID-19 preventive behavior and digital media research. By delving into researcher analyses, preferred publication outlets, and the topical state of the art, this study contributes a novel perspective to the existing literature.
