Abstract

The outbreak of coronavirus has affected family lifestyles and interactions. This research was conducted using a quantitative survey method. A sample of 400 families who have at least one member of their families infected and/or died with corona infection was selected. The results show that the average level of individual prevention is high and the average level of social communication control is low. There is a significant relationship between prevalence of corona infection and masking behavior, the couple's relationship with parents and siblings, relationship with family, relationship with friends, and city sightseeing. There is a direct relationship between prevalence of disease and the age of individuals, level of education and the number of family members who have contact with outdoor. The individual and family prevention in hospitalized people was lower than those without hospitalization. The rate of social communication was also higher in those admitted than in those without need for hospitalization. The rate of social communication and presence in society has been higher among people who infected two times.
