Health Protocol Practices and Personal Preventive Measures among Fully Vaccinated Individuals with Comorbidities in the National Capital Region, Philippines during the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Mixed-Method Study
The study suggests that multiple factors contribute to non-adherence to health protocols. Recognizing these holes and weaknesses in the COVID-19 pandemic response stresses the need for national leaders to place urgency on properly implementing preventive measures and providing health education to the masses during public health situations. Collaboration from all sectors is crucial in addressing public health crises. This study can be a valuable resource for future researchers, local government units, and policymakers in prioritizing public health care and pandemic preparedness.
