Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has shacked every aspect of life in every country. The increased number of deaths, rapid mass tests, and national/regional quarantine, also accompanied by misinformation, have worried everyone. This study surveyed the Makassar citizen’s attitude towards the COVID-19 information and refusal of health workers. The data were obtained from 1000 respondents spread across 50 sub-districts in Makassar. The respondents were at least 17 years old or were already married. The study found that more than 36.2% of respondents refused health workers due to misinformation, particularly from female respondents aged 41-60, who were unemployed, college students, or homemakers.
