Abstract
Vietnam is considered to overcome COVID-19 pandemic rather successfully by applying strict measures to prevent transmission, including quarantine and social distancing. It has created impacts on youth access to public space. This is a case study on young people in Hanoi, Vietnam based on the combination of an online survey with 325 respondents and 15 in-depth interviews. The study focuses on reviewing the relations between knowledge of COVID-19 with attitudes toward pandemic control and access to public spaces among youth in order to learn about factors that may influence social distancing and their accessibility to public space.
