Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an emerging respiratory disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus. COVID-19 outbreak has been declared as pandemic by WHO on March 11, 2020.India tried to curb its increase by vaccination, nationwide lockdown, varying levels of contact tracing and self-isolation or quarantine, and promotion of public health measures including hand washing, respiratory etiquette, and social distancing.COVID-19 is still alarmingly increasing because of poor knowledge and practice towards COVID-19. Aim: The aim of the study was to assess the knowledge and practice towards COVID-19 among the clients. Methodology: Descriptive research design, purposive sampling technique was used. Sample size was 300. Results: In the present study mean percentage of overall knowledge obtained was 59%. The mean percentage score for practice towards COVID-19 was 49%. There was strong positive(r= 0.5910) correlation between knowledge and practice. The study revealed that most clients had only moderate knowledge towards COVID-19 and the practice towards COVID-19 was inadequate among most number of clients. So, there is a need to create awareness and behavior change among community people regarding COVID-19.
