#NCDCPublication📚

Risk perception is a key area in health & risk communication that affects how people deal with hazards.

The comparatively low number of #COVID19 cases & death recorded in Nigeria has been hypothesised to contribute to the low perception of risk in the country.

In this peer-reviewed article, we published findings of an analysis conducted on the changes in risky behaviours during the first and second waves of #COVID19Nigeria.
