SocialCov - SARS-CoV-2 contact survey

About Click here to go to the survey Containment, barrier measures, limitation of gatherings, etc. The prevention measures currently put in place are unprecedented. They have fundamentally changed the contacts we have on a daily basis. However, it is precisely through these contacts that the virus is transmitted. To understand the evolution of SARS-Cov-2 transmission in the population, it is important to evaluate how our contacts change over time within our population. A first study carried out during confinement showed that this unprecedented measure had reduced contacts by more than 70% among the French. Today we are launching a new survey of the French population. Through questions like "Did you have contact yesterday at your workplace?" >> "How old were your contacts yesterday during your leisure time?" ", it will be possible to better understand the impact of current measures and the epidemic on our social and professional lives. Collecting this information on a large scale is essential to refine modeling in the context of the epidemic, and thus allow modelers to better understand and analyze the spread of the virus in France during this very special period. Your contribution is key. If you agree to participate and complete the questionnaire, you will be asked a certain number of personal questions: composition of your household, quantification of your contacts and lifestyle habits. This questionnaire is anonymous. Answering all the questions takes approximately 10 minutes. As several waves will be launched to ask you to respond to this survey, you are asked not to respond more than twice in the same month. Thank you in advance for your time and contribution!
