Abstract

Background: The purpose of this study is to analyze the long terms trends in public attitudes toward the COVID-19 pandemic and compliance with self-quarantine regulations.

Methods: Repeated cross-sectional studies looking into data collected from nationally representative samples (N = 2568) of the adult population in Israel at five points in time representing the five morbidity waves of the COVID-19 pandemic. This study examined public trust in Israeli health regulations, levels of public panic, feelings of personal worry, and compliance with health regulations, specifically self-quarantine.

Results: Public trust in health regulations in January 2022 is at an all-time low (25%) compared to the maximum value of nearly 75% measured in March 2020. While reported worry is steadily reducing, the perception of public panic is increasing. In earlier rounds, public compliance with self-quarantine was reported close to 100%; however, it has dropped to 38% by January 2022 when compensation is not assumed. Regression analysis suggests that trust is a major predictor of compliance with health regulations.

Conclusions: The "fifth wave" of the COVID-19 pandemic brought about an all-time low in public trust in health regulations. The Israeli public, normally a highly compliant one, is showing signs of crumbling conformity.

随着COVID-19成为一种慢性威胁,公众对卫生监管的顺从正在崩溃:重复横断面研究
背景:本研究的目的是分析公众对COVID-19大流行的态度和遵守自我隔离规定的长期趋势。方法:重复横断面研究,研究在代表COVID-19大流行的五个发病波的五个时间点从以色列成年人口的全国代表性样本(N = 2568)收集的数据。这项研究调查了公众对以色列卫生法规的信任程度、公众恐慌程度、个人担忧程度以及对卫生法规的遵守情况,特别是自我隔离。结果:与2020年3月测得的近75%的最高值相比,2022年1月公众对卫生法规的信任度处于历史最低点(25%)。虽然报道的担忧正在稳步减少,但公众恐慌的感觉却在增加。据报道,在前几轮中,公众遵守自我隔离的比例接近100%;然而,到2022年1月,当不考虑补偿时,这一比例已降至38%。回归分析表明,信任是遵守卫生法规的主要预测因素。结论:“第五波”疫情导致公众对卫生法规的信任度降至历史最低点。以色列公众,通常是高度顺从的,正在显示出顺从的崩溃迹象。
