to describe profiles of interest of web search queries related to the Covid-19 epidemic in Brazil.
this was a quantitative and exploratory study using Google Health Trends. We analyzed daily data of interest, defined as search probability (Pr), in 23 terms in searches performed by users connected in Brazil from January 1 to April 9, 2020.
the peak in interest (Pr=0.0651) on the theme of coronavirus occurred on March 21. Interest in use of face masks (Pr=0.0041), social distancing (Pr=0.0043) and hand hygiene with alcohol gel (Pr=0.0037) was greater than interest in respiratory etiquette (Pr=0.0010) and hand hygiene with soap and water (Pr=0.0005).
the difference in interest in issues related to combating Covid-19 was substantial and can guide new strategies for disseminating health information.
描述与巴西新冠疫情相关的网络搜索查询的关注概况。
这是一项使用谷歌健康趋势的定量探索性研究。我们分析了2020年1月1日至4月9日在巴西联网用户进行的搜索中,23个术语的每日关注数据,关注数据定义为搜索概率(Pr)。
3月21日出现了对冠状病毒主题的关注峰值(Pr = 0.0651)。对使用口罩(Pr = 0.0041)、保持社交距离(Pr = 0.0043)和使用酒精凝胶洗手(Pr = 0.0037)的关注大于对呼吸礼仪(Pr = 0.0010)和用肥皂和水洗手(Pr = 0.0005)的关注。
在与抗击新冠疫情相关问题上的关注差异很大,可为传播健康信息的新策略提供指导。
