A comparable data was also obtained from 131 children and adolescents who were not quarantined.\nRESULTS: Most of the children and adolescents were non-compliant as compliance with all requirements was low (7.43%), though compliance with community protective measures (17.35%) was better than compliance with household protective measures (10.71%). Quarantined children and adolescents experienced greater psychological distress than non-quarantined children and adolescents (p ˂0.001). Worry (68.59%), helplessness (66.11%) and fear (61.98%) were the most common feelings experienced under quarantine.\nCONCLUSIONS: The low compliance with quarantine requirements as seen in this study raises a serious concern about the effectiveness of quarantine as a preventive measure of disease transmission. Compliance and mental health problems can be improved by providing adequate financial support and enhanced knowledge about pandemic planning.","tracks":[{"project":"LitCovid-OGER-BB","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":85,"end":93},"obj":"SP_7"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":183,"end":194},"obj":"NCBITaxon:11118"},{"id":"T3","span":{"begin":1257,"end":1267},"obj":"CHEBI:15854"},{"id":"T4","span":{"begin":1257,"end":1267},"obj":"CHEBI:15854"}],"namespaces":[{"prefix":"NCBITaxon","uri":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy/"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"LitCovid-OGER-BB"},{"subj":"T2","pred":"source","obj":"LitCovid-OGER-BB"},{"subj":"T3","pred":"source","obj":"LitCovid-OGER-BB"},{"subj":"T4","pred":"source","obj":"LitCovid-OGER-BB"}]}],"config":{"attribute types":[{"pred":"source","value type":"selection","values":[{"id":"LitCovid-OGER-BB","color":"#939dec","default":true}]}]}}
