The adoption of new habits (AKB) during the pandemic has reduced the frequency with which people leave their homes. The older a person is, the greater the tendency to spend more time at home.
According to a report by the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), 42.26% of respondents aged 17-30 years reported going out less often. Meanwhile, 41.81% of respondents aged 31-45 years did the same. After that, the figure steadily increases with age. The largest proportion of those who reported going out less often were people over 61 years old, with 52.86% of respondents confirming this.
People need to increase the frequency of washing their hands with soap and running water, wearing masks, and maintaining physical distance. These actions are in line with the government's ongoing 3M movement.
The BPS conducted a survey of 90,967 respondents aged 17 to 60 years and older. The survey was conducted from September 7-14, 2020.
