Why Primary Prevention Fails in Pandemics: Human Behavior & Systemic Challenges
0Human Behaviors and Social Dynamics in Primary Prevention Failures During Pandemics: A Narrative Review of Behavioral and Systemic Challenges in Primary Prevention
Layman Abstract : This study looks at why some people resist following pandemic prevention measures (like wearing masks or getting vaccinated) even when they know the risks. It explores the psychological and social reasons behind these decisions, focusing on the COVID-19 pandemic.
How was the study done?
Researchers reviewed existing studies and combined them with their own past research on how people think and behave during pandemics. They used a method that helped them identify common patterns in people's beliefs and behaviors.
What did they find?
Not everyone follows pandemic prevention guidelines because of deep-rooted psychological, emotional, and social factors. Some people have cognitive biases that make them underestimate risks, while others resist due to personal beliefs, fear, or mistrust.
Why is this important?
To improve pandemic prevention, it’s important to understand why people refuse safety measures and address their concerns in a way that makes sense to them. The study suggests that better communication and tailored strategies could help more people accept preventive actions in future pandemics.
