  • Background 

    Health education through music video plays a vital role in raising a person's knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors positively connected to health during COVID-19 pandemic.

    Objective 

    This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of COVID-19-related music-video-watching and examine associated factors among the Vietnamese population.

    Methods 

    A cross-sectional study in Vietnam was conducted in February 2021 via the Internet.
