Research Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the association of knowledge, attitude, and actions with anxieties. We focused on influenza, vaccination uptake and wearing a mask. We conducted a survey through internet. We identified that people who wear a mask regularly tend to comply other health behaviors and people who are going to be vaccinated had significantly been vaccinated in the previous year. Those results could be applicable to influenza pandemic preparedness.
