Abstract
During the COVID-19 pandemic, one of the most significant challenges was the transfer of information about the disease and preventive measures. This study aimed to evaluate the common knowledge about COVID-19 among our patients and examine the factors influencing how information about the pandemic was received. The study involved 235 women admitted to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Pomeranian Medical University in Szczecin, Poland, in May 2021. They completed a single-choice questionnaire covering the transmission, risks, and prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection, disease management, vaccination, and preferred information sources. Most answers were correct, with no significant difference between television and Internet users. Health information campaign organizers should consider various factors affecting the transfer of health data.
