After the Covid-19 pandemic speculations and confusions about viruses were created. To evaluate the knowledge of the general audience, an open digital survey was created.

Even though most of the respondents knew the difference between viruses and bacteria, contrary to what was predicted, an expected outcome was reached in the idea that the topic should be deepened in the educational plan. |
