Abstract

Generally, citizens included in this study from Finland, the Netherlands, Slovenia, and Spain felt a shared responsibility in curbing the spread of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) during the pandemic. However, they emphasised the imperative need to be better informed about the likelihood of, and the developments during a pandemic in their country. Furthermore, the quality of the information provision emerged as an important theme.
