A cross-sectional descriptive-comparative study used a web-based survey to compare perceptions of social discrimination and coping strategies between 105 individuals with confirmed COVID-19 and 109 healthcare workers (HCWs) in Jordan. Educational level, age, monthly income, and taking over-the-counter medication were identified as predictors for both social discrimination and coping. The study is limited by its cross-sectional design, which prevents causal inferences, and the use of self-report data.
