Abstract

The study commissioned by the FOPH with co-financing from Health Promotion Switzerland is to be scientifically monitored. In addition, the contractor is responsible for the coordination with the international center, the data evaluation and data interpretation as well as the national reporting. The data collection (see BAG 19.023117) took place in March-April 2020 amid the global coronavirus pandemic. In order to better classify and interpret the results of the survey, as well as to support them qualitatively and put them in context, the mandate is being expanded to include an additional module that provides for a supplementary survey on corona-related health literacy in the Swiss population.
