Abstract

The article presents the results of the study of measures and methods of the state social policy, which have been taken to contain the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020-2022. Issues of COVID-19 disease prevalence in the world, in the Russian Federation and, in particular, in Tyumen region, methods and tools for preventing the spread of the virus, as well as morbidity and mortality rates due to COVID-19 are discussed. The article considers the role of culture in adult behavior, aimed at protection against COVID-19, and in motivation of use of preventive measures. The results of the analysis of the formalized survey of the adult population over 18 years of age (n = 384 persons, the field phase of the study is April 2022) are given. To study the elements of sociocultural self-regulation in behavior, aimed at maintaining health during of a pandemic, the culture of respondents is considered from the point of view of the M. Gelfand's classification, highlighting rigid and free types of cultures that reflect the assimilation of group cultures (class) social norms. The article draws our attention to the relationship of the types of culture with the age of respondents, the motivation of prevention, and the choice of healthy saving behavior. Culture has been shown as a source of strengthening preventive work on the part of state institutions, taking into account that the formation of a tougher culture, focusing on social norms, the desire to avoid mistakes, self-monitoring, characterized by a more predictable way of action, which is relevant in a society of high risk to health in a viral pandemic.
