Abstract

This paper presents the outcome of research investigating the COVID-19 outbreak’s effect on Greek citizens’ lives. This country has taken exceedingly early measures in order to prevent the virus spread and deaths of citizens. This paper also examines differences between citizens’ area of residence (urban vs. rural) and the effect of COVID-19 in their everyday lives. A non-probability sampling frame was implemented, and data was collected mainly through online platforms from 1 to May 13, 2020. A total of 3359 citizens completed the questionnaire and were included for analysis. Data Analysis (t-tests) revealed that statistical differences do exist in most cases. Communication routes to moderate citizens’ emotional pressure are discussed, pointing out the importance of preventive measures for public and individual health.
