为了响应全球对了解新型冠状病毒的战略信息的呼吁，本文提出的数据集是对埃塞俄比亚人的COVID-19相关知识，风险认知和预防性健康行为的检查。这些数据是在该国COVID-19封锁期间通过在线问卷调查生成的，评估了社会人口统计信息（7项），知识（5项），信息来源（1项），风险感知（9项），预期封锁结束（1项）和COVID-19预防性健康行为（10项），从2020年3月28日至4月4日，共收集了1，357份回复。有目的和滚雪球技术的结合有助于通过Whatsapp和Facebook从尼日利亚6个地缘政治区域的180个城市/城镇中选择受访者。调查数据采用描述性统计进行分析。整个数据集存储在Microsoft Excel Excel Excel中，调查表作为补充文件随附。这些数据将有助于遏制冠状病毒大流行，为战略和有针对性的干预措施以及卫生政策的制定和实施提供证据。(C)2020作者（S）爱思唯尔公司出版
In response to the global call for strategic information to understand the novel coronavirus, the dataset presented in this paper is an examination of COVID-19-related knowledge, risk perceptions and precautionary health behavior among Nigerians. The data were generated during the COVID-19 lockdown in the country through a survey distributed via an online questionnaire, assessing socio-demographic information (7 items), knowledge (5 items), information sources (1 item), risk perception (9 items), expected end of lockdown (1 item), and COVID-19 precautionary health behavior (10 items), from 28th March to 4th April, 2020, gathering a total of 1,357 responses. A combination of purposive and snowball techniques helped to select the respondents via Whatsapp and Facebook from 180 cities/towns in the 6 geopolitical zones of Nigeria. The survey data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The entire dataset is stored in a Microsoft Excel Worksheet (xls) and the questionnaire is attached as a supplementary file. The data will assist in curbing the Coronavirus pandemic by offering evidence for strategic and targeted interventions as well as health policy formulations and implementation.
