Abstract

The objective of this study is to identify the attitude of students to the COVID-19 pandemic and the introduced anti-epidemic restrictions. The empirical basis was the data of a pilot survey of students conducted by the Institute of Agrarian Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences in 2020 (N = 216). New empirical data have been obtained confirming, firstly, that among those who have had COVID-19, as well as those whose relatives had coronavirus, there are significantly fewer Covid-19 skeptics (8.3%), in contrast to those who did not get sick (14, 8%). Secondly, the "recovered from COVID-19 paradox" was identified, that on the one hand, those who have recovered recognize the danger of the COVID-19 pandemic, and on the other hand, not everyone strives to comply with restrictive and preventive measures. Thus, only 49.5% of students who have recovered from the illness and 61.1% of those who have not had the disease observe the social distance. Thirdly, the fear that loved ones will get sick worries the respondents to a greater extent than the risks of getting sick themselves.
