5. A Community Perception of COVID-19 study was launched by the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) and the
International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) that gathered responses from
19 provinces. Some of the findings and recommendations of the study are:
• The main information channels for COVID-19 are internet and social media (reached 46% of
people), which highlights the importance of using the right information channels;
• The most trusted sources of information are health services (45.9%) such as hospitals, Community
Health Centres and the auxiliary Community Health Centres, but health workers also encounter
social stigma challenges; and
• The most preferred feedback channel is social media (45.2%), which far exceeds the use of the
feedback hotline (28.4%) which is generally used more by service providers.
