The European questionnaire on Information and Communication Technologies Data reveals that there exists a disparity between the internet usage of people with a low, medium, and high formal education level. This disparity although present in most countries, differs widely in its severity.
In 2020, 64 percent of users with low formal education in Iceland used the internet to search for health information. Among people with medium formal education the share is one percent higher, amounting to 65. The highest share of users accessing such information can usually be found among users with a high degree of formal education. According to the survey 77 percent of users in Iceland with a high degree of formal education do search for health advice online.
