How much do you agree with the following COVID-19 statements:
The COVID-19 virus is primarily spread by droplets from the mouth, such as from talking, singing, coughing, and sneezing.
Infection rate is higher indoors compared to outdoors due to less ventilation.
Masking, hand washing, and social distancing are effective ways to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Proper masking means (1) using masks that stops droplets from crossing through both sides; (2) covering the entire nose and mouth leaving no gaps between the edges of the mask and face; and (3) avoiding touching of the mask.
COVID-19 has multiple strains with different levels of infectivity and severity, so having been infected before doesn't necessarily mean one cannot be infected again.
There are no good predictors as to how mild or severe symptoms can be if infected with COVID-19 regardless of risk factors.
Problems can still persist for months or longer after the COVID-19 infection, such as memory problems, brain fog, tiredness, inability to smell or taste.
There is still no cure for COVID-19 but we have evolving treatments that have been shown to have survival benefits.
The Pfizer, Moderna, and Janssen vaccines have all been shown to dramatically reduce hospitalization and death from COVID-19.
Someone who has been vaccinated against COVID-19 can still contract and spread the virus although the severity and transmission rate may be significantly less.
Anaphylaxis (serious allergic reaction), thrombosis (blood clot), and myocarditis (heart inflammation) from the COVID-19 vaccine side-effects are one in several millions.
Anecdotal testimony (claim based on observation without validating data) is the least accurate form of data.
