| Core Tip |
Risk perceptions describe an individual’s perceived susceptibility to a threat and directly influence their behavior. We conducted an international cross-sectional study to evaluate risk of contracting contracting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in celiac disease and evaluated risk perception. Patients with celiac disease perceive they are at an increased risk of contracting COVID-19 due to their condition, which is opposite to current scientific evidence. A higher risk perception may have a negative impact in mental health, and therefore, we encourage healthcare providers, patient care groups, and public health officials to discuss the implications that COVID-19 may have on patients in relation to their specific conditions. |
