Abstract: Since the ‘2019-NCOV’ pandemic can have a detrimental effect on academic performance and focus skills, it is critical to estimate students' behaviours, levels of anxiety, hygiene status and knowledge. The purpose of the research was to evaluate the knowledge, behaviour change, anxiety, and hygiene status of university students with reference to ‘2019-NCOV’. A total of 1,500 students from five occupational schools for health services across different provinces in participated in the research. Data was collected through an online survey that included the (Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7) GAD-7 scale, and questions assessing knowledge about ‘2019-NCOV.’Students who got training in hand hygiene also scored much lower on the scale than students who did not, demonstrating good hygiene habits. In comparison to men, women scored considerably higher on the GAD-7 scale, demonstrating higher levels of anxiety. Overall, over fifty percent of the kids showed good hygiene habits, whereas around a third struggled with anxiousness Women fared higher in terms of behaviour and knowledge, and they demonstrated a greater awareness of anxiety symptoms and personal hygiene habits. In light of these findings, it was suggested that during infectious disease outbreaks, programmes for the psychological support of healthcare students be developed.
