Most of the research materials referred in this study are from secondary resources which are from research articles, newspaper articles, materials from magazines and bulletin.

The implication of the study showed that there are varies compliance and non-compliance behaviours that are demonstrated by fellow Malaysians as the pandemic shows no signs of slowing down. It is therefore vital for Malaysians to follow the appropriate Standard Operation Procedures and be vigilant and resilient in facing this pandemic.
