Many Q's : Understanding and Perceptions of Filipino workers on Community Quarantine Terminologies and Classifications as Risk Communication Strategies in the COVID-19 Pandemic
With the Philippines now more than a year into the COVID-19 pandemic, implementing and lifting community quarantines every other week, numerous terminologies and acronyms have arisen from official information centers on crisis response. Through risk communication models and theories, the study will focus on how risk communication is becoming increasingly inaccessible to the masses and how health experts and public officials struggle to provide comprehensive explanations to the ordinary Filipino. This quantitative study involved 20 respondents from the working sector residing or working in areas under community quarantine. The study provided insight and analysis of the respondents' level of understanding and assessment of risk communication of authorities to be able to garner their perception and the relationship of both to each other. Results revealed that there is a high level of understanding of respondents on community quarantines but a neutral to low assessment score for authorities' risk communication and a moderate positive correlation between the two variables
