2007年，澳大利亚的成年人接受了采访，询问他们在假设的流感爆发期间是否愿意遵守可能的卫生干预措施。在2009年澳大利亚第一波大流行（H1N1）之后，许多相同的受访者接受了关于他们实际采取的行为和保护措施的采访。在最初的1，155名受访者中，对830名（71.9%）进行了后续访谈。总体而言，2009年20.4%的受访者最近经历过流感样疾病，77.7%的人认为2009年H1N1流感大流行是轻微的，77.8%的人报告焦虑程度较低。只有14.5%的人能正确回答有关流感病毒传播、症状和感染控制的4个问题。一些人报告说，增加洗手（46.6%）和掩盖咳嗽和打喷嚏（27.8%），以减少传播。与2007年报告的意向相比，2009年对检疫或隔离措施的公开遵守率仍然很高。然而，只有认为2009年H1N1流感大流行严重或具有较高教育水平的受访者表示有意遵守社交距离措施。
In 2007, adults in Australia were interviewed about their willingness to comply with potential health interventions during a hypothetical influenza outbreak. After the first wave of pandemic (H1N1) 2009 in Australia, many of the same respondents were interviewed about behavior and protection measures they actually adopted. Of the original 1,155 respondents, follow-up interviews were conducted for 830 (71.9%). Overall, 20.4% of respondents in 2009 had recently experienced influenza-like illness, 77.7% perceived pandemic (H1N1) 2009 to be mild, and 77.8% reported low anxiety. Only 14.5% could correctly answer 4 questions about influenza virus transmission, symptoms, and infection control. Some reported increasing handwashing (46.6%) and covering coughs and sneezes (27.8%) to reduce transmission. Compared with intentions reported in 2007, stated compliance with quarantine or isolation measures in 2009 remained high. However, only respondents who perceived pandemic (H1N1) 2009 as serious or who had attained higher educational levels expressed intention to comply with social distancing measures.
