Abstract

A cross-sectional descriptive study on 361 students to describe the current circumstances of COVID-19 pandemic prevention practice among students of Hanoi Medical University. The results showed that the percentage of students with good practice was 85.6%. The majority of students strictly followed the Government regulation (99.7%), regularly washed their hands properly (98.7%), supplemented with nutrition, increase physical fitness (89.2%), wore a mask when going out (96.4%). Students of Hanoi Medical University used social networks (92.5%), the official website of the Ministry of Health (87.3%) and television (75.3%) to update the pandemic situation and disease prevention. Some factors related to COVID-19 prevention and control practices were given, such as age, gender, major, family members working in the medical profession. However, these factors did not meet the statistically significant level. More extensive studies with larger scale are needed to further evaluate students' behavior in preventing COVID-19 and the factors related to these behaviors.
