Özet:

 Objective: To determine the opinions of individuals about the Covid-19 disease and vaccines and to evaluate the Covid- 19 phobia. Methods: This is a cross-sectional and descriptive study. The data of the study were collected online using the snowball sampling technique between February and March 2021 n530. Data collections tools were Participant Information Form and Covid-19 Phobia Scale. Results: It was determined that 17 of the participants had Covid-19 disease, and 40.8 saw themselves at a moderate risk in terms of getting Covid-19. It was determined that 56.1 of those who were not diagnosed with Covid-19 and 52.2 of those who were diagnosed with Covid-19 were slightly afraid of getting covid-19. It was determined that 44.7 of the participants were indecisive about being vaccinated and 50.2 of these people stated that they were indecisive because the side effects of the vaccines were unknown. There was no statistically significant difference between the total and sub-dimensions mean scores of the Covid-19 Phobia Scale among those who answered yes, no and indecisive about vaccination. A statistically significant difference was found between the fear of catching Covid-19 for the first time and the total and sub-dimension mean scores of the Covid-19 phobia scale p .005.Conclusion: Our study showed that individuals were afraid of getting Covid-19 and most people were indecisive about being vaccineted due to the unknown side effects.

 Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, bireylerin Covid-19 hastalığı ve aşıları hakkındaki görüşlerinin belirlenmesi ve Covid-19 fobisinin değerlendirilmesidir. Yöntem: Bu çalışma, kesitsel ve tanımlayıcı bir araştırmadır. Araştırmanın verileri, Şubat-Mart 2021 tarihleri arasında kartopu örnekleme tekniği kullanılarak çevrimiçi olarak toplanmıştır n530. Veri toplama araçları Katılımcı Bilgi Formu ve Covid-19 Fobi Ölçeğidir. Bulgular: Katılımcıların 17sinin Covid-19 hastalığını geçirdiği, 40.8inin Covid-19a yakalanma açısından kendilerini orta dereceli riskli gördüğü belirlenmiştir. Covid-19 tanısı almayanların 56.1inin; Covid-19 tanısı alanların ise 52.2sinin covid-19a yakalanmaktan biraz korktukları saptanmıştır. Katılımcıların 44.7sinin aşı olma konusunda kararsız olduğu belirlenmiş olup; bu kişilerin 50.2si aşıların yan etkileri bilinmediği için kararsız olduğunu ifade etmiştir. Aşı olma konusunda evet, hayır ve kararsızım yanıtlarını verenlerin Covid-19 Fobisi Ölçeği toplam ve alt boyutları puan ortalamaları arasında istatiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. Covid-19a ilk kez yakalanma korkusu ile Covid-19 fobi ölçeği toplam ve alt boyut puan ortalamaları arasında istatiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulunmuştur p.005. Sonuç: Çalışmamız bireylerin Covid-19a yakalanma korkusu yaşadıklarını ve çoğu kişinin aşıların yan etkilerinin bilinmemesinden dolayı aşı olmak konusunda kararsız olduklarını göstermiştir.
