Résumé

Initial management of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) focused on preventing spread and providing supportive care. Authorities disseminated disease information and enforced preventive measures. This intricate task was affected by factors such as initial emotional distress or perceived risk, which influenced adherence to public health recommendations. This study examined the association between trust in local health authorities and national/regional leaders who have provided information about COVID-19 and adherence to COVID-19 preventive behaviors.
