Novel coronavirus disease is a very fast spreading respiratory disease. This disease is becoming a public health emergency across the world. Despite many efforts by countries, organizations, and institutions to prevent and control, the pandemic remains a world health danger. Ethiopia is one of the countries which is severely affected by the pandemic. However, a systematic review of the knowledge, attitude, and practice about coronavirus disease in Ethiopia has not previously done. Thus, the main aim of this systematic review is to investigate the status of people's knowledge, attitude, and practice about coronavirus disease preventive measures in Ethiopia in 2020.
Data were extracted based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Studies were accessed through electronic web-based search from PubMed, Cochrane Library, Google, Google Scholar, and Embase. All statistical analyses were done using Stata version 11 software with a random-effects model.
A total of 11 studies with 3818 participants were included in this systematic review and the overall estimated status of the knowledge, attitude, and practice about coronavirus in Ethiopia are 61.78%, 72.39%, and 52.83%, respectively. According to region subgroup analysis, the highest estimated statuses of the knowledge, attitude, and practice are 74% in Tigray, 86.13% in Southern nations, nationalities, and Peoples' of the region, and 72% in Tigray region, respectively. Subgroup analysis was done based on the focused group and way of questionnaire administration.
This systematic review revealed people's knowledge, attitude, and practice about coronavirus disease preventive measures were generally more than 50%. However, government and every individual should address those behaviors stipulated by the World Health Organization and Center for Communicable Disease and Control guidelines to prevent coronavirus disease.
新型冠状病毒病是一种传播速度极快的呼吸道疾病。这种疾病正在成为全球公共卫生紧急事件。尽管各国、各组织和各机构为防控做出了诸多努力，但该疫情仍然是全球健康威胁。埃塞俄比亚是受疫情严重影响的国家之一。然而，此前尚未对埃塞俄比亚关于冠状病毒病的知识、态度和实践进行系统评价。因此，本系统评价的主要目的是调查2020年埃塞俄比亚民众对冠状病毒病预防措施的知识、态度和实践状况。
根据系统评价和Meta分析的首选报告项目指南提取数据。通过基于网络的电子检索从PubMed、Cochrane图书馆、谷歌、谷歌学术和Embase获取研究。所有统计分析均使用Stata 11软件并采用随机效应模型进行。
本系统评价共纳入11项研究，3818名参与者，埃塞俄比亚关于冠状病毒的知识、态度和实践的总体估计状况分别为61.78%、72.39%和52.83%。根据地区亚组分析，知识、态度和实践的最高估计状况分别是提格雷地区的74%、该地区南方各族人民的86.13%和提格雷地区的72%。基于焦点小组和问卷管理方式进行了亚组分析。
本系统评价显示，民众对冠状病毒病预防措施的知识、态度和实践总体上超过50%。然而，政府和每个人都应遵循世界卫生组织以及传染病与控制中心指南规定的那些行为来预防冠状病毒病。
