Abstract:

In most of the affected country's ignorance of Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP) towards COVID-19 leads to several issues. The aim of the present study is to review and discuss the KAP to fight the COVID-19 crisis in respect of stakeholders namely, general populations, health workers, and students. A comprehensive search of the literature associated with KAP towards COVID-19 is made using various keywords through PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus and based on the results; a brief review is done by assessing the various aspects like country, sample size, and so forth. A detailed structure is provided with the KAP towards COVID-19 to overwhelm the significant impact of the explosion. Though, various studies appear in the literature as a result of sufficient element of knowledge, positive attitude, and necessary practice, yet there are various challenges in front of the authority bodies as this pandemic becoming critical day by day. Incessant progress in the KAP has contributed well in the fight against the pandemic and we believe that providing proper information to related COVID-19 would help in tackling this disease, especially, when authorities started talking with COVID-19 for a long period or until a vaccine developed.
