In March 2020, 24 percent of survey respondents in Australia indicated that they trusted the information on Australian federal and state government websites to find out about, and respond to, the coronavirus. Health professionals were the second most trusted while Australians were more skeptical of information offered by family, friends, social media, and their workplace.
