Description
Shanti Narayanasamy and co-authors track rule following in at risk groups during COVID in a 2026 study. The work sits in Victoria, Australia, inside a long cohort study that ran from 2020 to 2023. It compares two month long windows, one calm and one in lockdown, for people from diverse language roots or low income homes.
Measures split into advice, lockdown limits, and standing mandates. Of 782 recruits, most filled a survey or diary in at least one window. Groups were classed as diverse, low income, or neither, and rates of adherence were set side by side. The design shows how crisis rules land unevenly across a city.
