Attitudes and opinions on quarantine and support for a contact-tracing application in France during the COVID-19 outbreak.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

We aim to identify the factors associated with support and compliance with general quarantine and with the acceptability and potential use of a contact-tracing mobile phone application among French respondents.

Study design

We conducted a cross-sectional study between April 16th and May 7th 2020 using online questionnaires.

Methods

The sample was reweighted to be representative of the French population by age and sex, region and education level. Ordered logistic, logistic and negative binomial regressions were used to estimate the factors associated with quarantine support, with the opinion on quarantine extension, with the number and type of trips outside the quarantine home and with the acceptability and potential use of a contact-tracing application.
