预期的心理反应和对风险的看法在流行病爆发之前没有得到审查。2005年11月，采用横断面电话调查，对805名香港成年华人进行了匿名访问，以检查与H5 N1禽流感相关的信念和预期反应。分别有71.4%和52.4%的受访者认为明年会发生禽传人或人传人H5 N1。如果香港爆发禽流感或人与人之间的疫情，许多人预计死亡率很高（分别为70.5%和74.4%），永久性物理损伤（分别为52.0%和54.9%），疫苗不足（分别为50.0%和64.4%）、药品供应不足（分别为43.7%和54.5%），医院感染控制不足（分别为35.1%和43.3%），家庭成员感染H5 N1的高易感性对自身/家庭的影响比SARS严重（分别为21.2%和25.0%）。大多数人预计至少有一个研究的7个压力相关的反应（例如，恐慌）或采用5种研究的预防行为措施中的至少1种（例如，避免外出）。一旦发生人禽流感疫情，可能会出现恐慌和日常生活中断。传播准确、及时的信息将减少不必要的痛苦和不必要的行为。
Anticipated psychological responses and perceptions of risk have not been examined prior to the outbreak of an epidemic. Using a cross-sectional, telephone survey, 805 Chinese adults in Hong Kong were interviewed anonymously in November, 2005 to examine beliefs related to H5N1 avian influenza and anticipated responses. Of respondents, 71.4% and 52.4%, respectively, believed that bird-to-human or human-to-human H5N1 transmission would occur in the next year. In the event of a bird-to-human or human-to-human outbreak in Hong Kong, many anticipated high fatality rates (70.5% and 74.4%, respectively), permanent physical damage (52.0% and 54.9%, respectively), inadequate vaccines (50.0% and 64.4%, respectively), insufficient medicine supplies (43.7% and 54.5%, respectively), inadequate hospital infection control (35.1% and 43.3%, respectively), high susceptibility of family members contracting H5N1 (13.9% and 24.3%, respectively), and impact on oneself/family worse than those of severe acute respiratory syndrome (21.2 and 25.0%, respectively). Most anticipated at least 1 of the 7 studied stress-related responses (e.g., panic) or the adoption of at least 1 of the 5 studied preventive behavioral measures (e.g., avoiding going out). Panic and interruption of daily routines may occur in the event of a human avian influenza outbreak. Dissemination of accurate, timely information would reduce unnecessary distress and unwanted behaviors.
