ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 pandemic continues its devastating reign over the world, and Making effective strategies for determining and containing the virus has grown more crucial. Although developed nations can effectively control the spread and severity of the pandemic, less developed countries have difficulty implementing similar measures because of various issues such as understanding, attitudes, and behaviour for covid-19 intervention. Similarly, Bangladesh experience challenges in executing contagious virus management due to different intervention seeking knowledge and behaviour. This study explored the intervention-seeking behaviour of the Covid-19 treatment protocol who recovered from this deadly virus in Bangladesh. This quantitative study adopted a cross-sectional design, whereas a convenient sampling approach was utilized to collect data from 54 adult residents of Rajshahi and Chittagong in Bangladesh and conducted face-to-face or telephone-based depth interviews. Among 54 participants, males were n=40 (74.1%), and their mean age was 42.02 years. Common symptoms were cold n=12 (22.2%), fatigue n=8 (14.8%), fever n=7 (13%), coughing n=4 (7.4%) due to COVID-19 infection. The maximum isolation length was 8-14 days, n=30 (55.6%), and the mean was 15.24 days. Regarding intervention, Medicine was prescribed among n=35 (64.8%), and only n=2 (3.7%) received respiratory physiotherapy;home remedies n=25 (46.3%). While using Medicine, n=22 (40.7%) was highly concerning treatment behaviour among people with recovered from Covid-19. Medicine-taking is a popular and convenient method for intervention-seeking behaviour among people affected by Covid-19 in Bangladesh. The finding suggests that combating the covid-19 pandemic requires education and awareness about treatment-taking behaviour because only Medicine cannot decline the negative health impact of post-covid-19. Besides, proper rehabilitation is crucial in promoting the quality of life of the person with post-covid-19. Copyright © 2022, Anka Publishers. All rights reserved.
