  • Evidence Synthesis Briefing Note
    EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS BRIEFING NOTE TOPIC: IMPACTS OF NIGHTTIME CURFEWS ON MOBILITY AND TRANSMISSION OF COVID-19 Information finalized as of April 14, 2021.a This Briefing Note was completed by the Research, Analysis, and Evaluation Branch (Ministry of Health) in collaboration with members of the COVID-19 Evidence Synthesis Network. Please refer to the Methods section for further information. Purpose: This document summarizes the scientific evidence and jurisdictional information on the impacts of nighttime curfews on population mobility and on the transmission of COVID-19, including when they are implemented with other non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs)/public health measures. Key Findings: • Impact of Curfews on Mobility: A curfew in Quebec was associated with an immediate reduction in nighttime mobility (31% relative reduction) compared to that of Ontario, which did not have a similar curfew. The government lockdown period in Thailand reduced distances that citizens traveled by more than 90%. Even without strict enforcement, curfews imposed in Kenya limited citizens’ needs for travel outside their neighbourhoods for. In France, curfews led to citizens’ increased mobility, suggesting that curfews should be imposed based on an analysis of the local situation. • Impact of Curfews on Transmission: Research suggests that curfews reduce COVID-19 transmission, particularly when they are implemented alongside other public health measures. In 54 countries and four epicenters of the COVID-19 pandemic that used stay-at-home orders, curfews, or lockdowns, the percent increase in daily new cases reduced to <5% within one month. However, two studies suggest that containment measures including curfews may not be effective at the household level (i.e., among family members).

  • Influence of Personality and Trust in Government on Young Adult's Compliance to COVID-19 Restrictions
    Mask Off: Influence of Personality and Trust in Government on Young Adults’ Adherence to COVID-19 Restrictions Nell Royal Faculty of Behavioural, Management and Social Sciences (BMS), University of Twente Dr. Margôt Kuttschreuter Dr. Peter de Vries July 9, 2021 1 Abstract For citizens’ safety, governments all over the world enacted regulations to restrict the spread of COVID-19 in 2020. Especially in the Netherlands, these regulations encountered disapproval, protests, and riots, causing many young males getting arrested. As the measures are part of a collective effort, it is necessary to investigate, why some people adhere to the restrictions, and others disregard them. Recent research dealt with that question and found trust being related to compliance with COVID-19 measures. The present study examined how trust in government and the personality traits conscientiousness and neuroticism influence the tendency to adhere to COVID-19 restrictions imposed by the Dutch government. To investigate how attitude, trust and intention interact, as well as the role of personality, an online questionnaire survey design was employed. Via social media, a convenience sample of young adults in the age of 18-29 was collected (N=85). Results showed trust in government to be a moderator of the relationship between attitude and behaviour intention: for low trusting individuals, attitude is a stronger predictor of behaviour intention than it is for highly trusting individuals. Further, there were no statistically significant relationships between attitude and neuroticism or conscientiousness. Based on the results, proposals for action were deduced suggesting trust as an important consideration to ensure adherence to protective measures.
