减轻大流行性流感影响的策略包括改变公众在医疗护理、个人卫生和防护以及社交距离方面的行为。我们对北京居民进行了电话调查，以评估流感大流行时公众潜在的行为变化。我们对 15 岁以上的北京居民进行了两阶段的 Mitofsky-Waksberg 电话调查。对样本进行加权以反映 2000 年的人口普查。我们询问了受访者目前针对流感样疾病 (ILI) 的就医行为、防护措施（个人卫生、社交距离）以及对卫生当局的遵守情况。然后我们问他们在假设的大流行期间会做什么。我们在研究中采访了 256 名北京参与者（回应率为 56%）。在大流行期间，就流感样疾病向医生咨询的参与者比例从目前的 41% [95 置信区间 (CI) 35-47] 上升到 74% (95% CI 68-79)。 55% (95% CI 48-62) 的参与者会在大流行期间向比目前更专业的医院寻求治疗。超过 90% 的参与者表示，在非大流行期间已经练习洗手或咳嗽或打喷嚏时遮住口鼻；在大流行情况下，这一比例变化不大。与当前的社交距离做法相比，更多的人会避开拥挤的地方（77% vs. 92%，P
Strategies to lessen the impact of pandemic influenza include behavioural modifications of the general public regarding medical care, personal hygiene and protection, and social distancing. We conducted a telephone survey of Beijing residents to evaluate potential behavioural changes in the general public in the event of an influenza pandemic occurring. We used a two-stage Mitofsky-Waksberg telephone survey of Beijing residents aged >= 15 years. The sample was weighted to reflect the 2000 census. We asked the respondents about their current healthcare-seeking behaviours for influenza-like illness (ILI), protective measures (personal hygiene, social distancing), and compliance with health authorities. We then asked what they would do during a hypothetical pandemic. We interviewed 256 Beijing participants in our study (response rate 56%). The percent of participants consulting a doctor for ILI rose from the current 41% [95 confidence interval (CI) 35-47] to 74% (95% CI 68-79) during a pandemic. Fifty-five percent (95% CI 48-62) of the participants would seek care from a more specialized hospital during a pandemic than currently. More than 90% of the participants reported already practising hand-washing or covering their coughs or sneezes during a non-pandemic period; this percentage changed little under a pandemic scenario. Compared to the current social distancing practices, more people would avoid crowded places (77% vs. 92%, P
