Brief Summary
Because COVID-19 is a new virus, it is believed that awareness assessment will inform and guide what steps should be taken and which groups should be targeted in terms of controlling the pandemic. According to our hypothesis, COVID-19 awareness of individuals in different age groups in the Turkish population also varies. There are controlling pratices based on scientific studies made during the outbreak, but there is no certainty as to how much these measures are known by our society. Based on these, the aim of our study was to investigate and compare the awareness of new Coronavirus (COVID-19) in different age groups across Turkey.
