BACKGROUND
Migrants in Norway bear a higher burden of COVID-19 infections and hospitalization as compared to non-migrants. The aim of our study was to understand how migrants perceive their own health risk, how they access information regarding the preventive measures, the degree of trust in this information, in the Norwegian authorities and the news media, and migrants' adherence to authorities' recommendations regarding the pandemic.
METHODS
An online survey was performed between May and July 2020 among 529 Polish, Arabic, Somali, Tamil, and Spanish-speaking migrants in Norway. For each outcome presented in the aims, unweighted and weighted descriptive analyses were performed for all migrants together and for each language group.
RESULTS
Sixty-one percent of migrants perceived their health as excellent or very good, with the lowest value (42%) in the Tamil group and the highest among Somalians (85%). The majority of respondents (82%) felt they had received sufficient information. Press conferences from the government, health authorities' websites, and Norwegian news media were the preferred channels of information for all groups. Most migrants reported a high level of adherence to preventive measures (88%) and trust in Norwegian authorities (79%). However, there were variations among groups regarding the importance of sources of information and level of trust, which was lowest for the Polish group.
CONCLUSION
Migrants in Norway reported receiving sufficient information about COVID-19 and high adherence to preventive measures. However, the levels of trust in the information sources, the services and the authorities varied among the groups. Understanding how migrants are dealing with this pandemic is crucial to improve the dissemination of information and trust in the health authorities for the different groups.
背景
与非移民相比，挪威的移民承受着更高的新冠病毒感染和住院负担。我们研究的目的是了解移民如何看待自身的健康风险，他们如何获取有关预防措施的信息，对这些信息、挪威当局和新闻媒体的信任程度，以及移民对当局有关疫情建议的遵守情况。
方法
2020年5月至7月间，对挪威529名讲波兰语、阿拉伯语、索马里语、泰米尔语和西班牙语的移民进行了在线调查。对于目标中列出的每个结果，对所有移民以及每个语言群体进行了未加权和加权描述性分析。
结果
61%的移民认为自己的健康状况极佳或非常好，泰米尔语群体中这一比例最低（42%），索马里人当中比例最高（85%）。大多数受访者（82%）觉得自己已获得足够的信息。政府的新闻发布会、卫生当局的网站以及挪威新闻媒体是所有群体首选的信息渠道。大多数移民报告称对预防措施的遵守程度较高（88%），对挪威当局的信任度较高（79%）。然而，在信息来源的重要性和信任程度方面，各群体之间存在差异，波兰语群体的信任度最低。
结论
挪威的移民报告称已获得有关新冠病毒的足够信息，并且对预防措施的遵守程度较高。然而，不同群体对信息来源、服务和当局的信任程度各不相同。了解移民如何应对这一疫情对于改善不同群体对卫生当局信息的传播和信任至关重要。
