INTRODUCTION
COVID‐19 started from one city of China in December 2019, but in a short span of time, it covered almost all over the world (WHO, 2020b). Nearly 216 countries of the whole world are struggling for their civilization and livelihood against the coronavirus pandemic. On January 11, 2020, China declared first death of their 61 years old citizen due to COVID‐19, who was exposed to the seafood market (WHO, 2020b), but now death reached exponentially to 357,736 on 29th May 2020 (WHO, 2020a).
On February 11, 2020, WHO announced this coronavirus disease as COVID‐19 (WHO, 2020c) and pandemic on March 11, 2020, after reaching the virus infection to 114 countries across the world.
COVID‐19 and SARS coronavirus are similar and because it is becoming a big threat to human civilization as consequences, online awareness programs were initiated and conducted worldwide by WHO (2020c).
Proper strategies and funds were set up by WHO globally to protect the countries with special focus to poor and weaker health infrastructure developing countries. The aim was to reduce the virus communication in society, dissemination of crucial information, providing proper healthcare and to minimize social and economical loss. WHO also focused on establishing an easy and effective diagnostic system to prevent infection (WHO 2020 c).
To prevent the infection socially, the lockdown was imposed globally, which resulted in the halt of all economic and social activity in society. This led to cease global supply chains badly resulting in the global economy in bad shape (Ebrahim, Ahmed, Gozzer, Schlagenhauf, & Memish, 2020). In India, the Central Government also imposed a nationwide lockdown for the first time on March 22, 2020 and continued it up to till date, that is, on May 30, 2020. All transport, manufacturing, hotel industry, educational sector, service industry and so forth were closed immediately, people were left to remain as to where they were at the time of lockdown announcement and during lockdown people started working from home, school and colleges classes are running online, a large number of people shifted on a digital platform (McCloskey et al., 2020).
But on May 30, 2020, this situation of coronavirus disease (COVID‐19) outbreak has become worse, as it contains 5,704,736 confirmed cases, 357,736 confirmed deaths across 216 countries. India also has 165,799 confirmed cases with 4,706 casualties (WHO, 2020d).
Now it is very clear that COVID‐19 is creating very disaster effects globally with India, people are getting panicked, emotionally unsecured, depressed and in a stage of confusion, unaware about facilities provided by the government, regarding reliable news sources, symptoms of COVID‐19 and its prevention with the cure.
Some parts of the North East, India people are taking coronavirus infection as a social stigma, so as a consequence people are hiding their illness and showing their unwillingness to approach hospitals. In this connection, WHO are trying their level best to offer technical guidance and solving public queries, to mitigate their fear, social discrimination and stigma regarding COVID‐19 (WHO, 2020c). On the counterpart, our Indian government is also making aware of the people by disseminating information through various reliable sources and providing medical facilities and trying to reduce the losses due to coronavirus. But, in India, we have a very huge dense population without well‐established medical facilities, which is a matter of concern Sohrabi et al. (2020); Surjadi & Surja (2019); Sharma, Singh, Agrawal, & Sharma, 2020). Large numbers of people are illiterate, isolated, migrants, live remotely and are below the poverty line, struggling hard for their daily needs are raising the government's concern during the lockdown. Migrant workers are bound to migrate from one state to their home without any proper transport facilities and precaution such as a face mask, social distancing, meal, cleanliness, hygiene, which are triggering to increase more infection in society. Amid the above havoc situation, the anxiety and worries among society are at the top, people who are kept in quarantine centers at isolated places are also feeling serious uneasiness, discomfort ness, irritated, ignored and in traumatic stress (li et al.(2020)). Many celebrities, sportspersons, media persons, politicians, other responsible citizens are trying to aware and change the attitude of the public, to take self and families protection and motivating them to avail medical facilities by cooperating with medical personnel, which ultimately leads to reducing coronavirus infection in society (Anderson et al. (2020); Wang et al. (2020) & Zhu et al. (2019)). Hence, it is very crucial to study the following factors in the Indian population and their effects in society.
