Bahrain Center for Strategic, International and Energy Studies (Derasat) will conduct a survey on the means by which citizens cope with the Novel Corona Virus, and how it affected social norms and behaviors.

 

The survey will also measure the level of public satisfaction towards governmental procedures and measures to counter effectively the global pandemic, addressing in this regard the performance of the national team to counter the outbreak and limit its spread. 

 

Derasat Chairman Dr. Shaikh Abdullah bin Ahmed Al Khalifa said the survey would be conducted by a team of the Center’s research experts.

 

"It will include all segments of society and all ages from both genders in all the Kingdom’s governorates to record their remarks and expectations on how this global crisis is being managed," he said. 

 

Dr. Shaikh Abdullah said the survey aimed to reach a statistical result, with scientific and objective parameters, for the coronavirus issue, to reveal indicators and determine the results, which can enable decision makers to invest in positive steps and avoid any implications that might impede the effectiveness of their efforts. 

 

"The Center strives to respond to the public in the Kingdom of Bahrain, and to contribute to the pioneering national efforts in countering the spread of the Corona Virus to protect the safety of the community," he said.

 

Dr. Shaikh Abdullah expressed his utmost appreciation and gratitude to the supreme and wise directives of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa to counter the viral outbreak, as part of His Majesty’s care and concern towards all that safeguards public health and the nation as a whole.

 

He also praised the strenuous endeavors and noble national and humanitarian efforts in this regard, led by His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al-Khalifa, Crown Prince, Deputy Supreme Commander, and First Deputy Prime Minister, in the Team Bahrain spirit.
