Abstract

            Based on a survey conducted in 28 countries in Europe, Asia, the US and South America during the COVID-19 pandemic, it was found that one-third (33%) of respondents worldwide used medical masks during the pandemic. Most often they are used by the population of Korea (94%), Thailand (81%) and Afghanistan (74%). Only 15% of the world's population used gloves. Italy was the leader in this matter (40%). A third of respondents in Afghanistan (32%), a quarter in Armenia and Palestine (26%) share the use of gloves in terms of protection against coronavirus. More than half (54%) of respondents worldwide used disinfectants. People from the Philippines (86%), Malaysia (84%) and Thailand (79%) were the most attentive to their use. At the time of the survey, only 14% of the world was in self-isolation. France was the leader in this matter (70%). In Turkey, Bosnia and Herzegovina, 100% of the respondents said that they did not use self-isolation for the prevention of coronavirus.
