Public health recommendations aimed at limiting the spread of SARS-CoV-2 have encouraged social distancing and masks as economies across the United States re-open. Understanding adherence to these guidelines will inform further efforts to reduce transmission. In this repeated cross-sectional survey study, we describe changes in social behavior in Ohio during periods of declining and rising cases. While essential activities remained consistent over time, more individuals attended gatherings of 10 or more people as cases rose, particularly in the 18-29 age group. A majority of individuals wore masks. It appears necessary to continue limiting gatherings and encourage mask-wearing, particularly among younger groups.
在美国各地经济重新开放之际，旨在限制新冠病毒传播的公共卫生建议鼓励保持社交距离并佩戴口罩。了解对这些指导方针的遵守情况将为进一步减少传播的努力提供信息。在这项重复横断面调查研究中，我们描述了俄亥俄州病例数下降和上升期间社会行为的变化。虽然基本活动随时间保持一致，但随着病例数上升，更多人参加了10人或以上的聚会，尤其是在18-29岁年龄组。大多数人佩戴口罩。看来有必要继续限制聚会并鼓励佩戴口罩，尤其是在较年轻的群体中。
