Resumo: The aim of the study was to examine the prevalence of social distancing, the use of face masks and hand washing when leaving home among Brazilian adults aged 50 or over. Data from 6,149 telephone interviews were used, conducted between May 26 and June 8, 2020 among participants in the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Aging (ELSI-Brazil). Social distancing was defined by not having left home in the last seven days. Only 32.8% of study participants did not leave home during the period considered, 36.3% left between one and two times, 15.2% between three and five times and 15.7% left every day. The main reasons for leaving home were to buy medicine or food (74.2%), to work (25.1%), to pay bills (24.5%), for health care (10.5%), to exercise (6.2%), and to meet family or friends (8.8%). Among those who left home, 97.3% always wore face masks and 97.3% always performed hand washing. Women left home less often than men. Men left home more often to work and exercise while women left home more often to seek healthcare. Men (odds ratio - OR = 1.84), those with higher education (OR = 1.48 and 1.95 for 5-8 and 9 years, respectively) and urban residents (OR = 1.54) left home more frequently to perform essential activities, regardless of age or other characteristics. Results show low adherence to social distancing, but high prevalence in the reported use of face masks and hand washing.

Se utilizaron datos de 6.149 entrevistas telefónicas, realizadas entre el 26 de mayo y el 8 junio de 2020 entre los participantes del Estudio Brasileño Longitudinal del Envejecimiento (ELSI-Brasil por sus siglas en portugués). El distanciamiento social fue definido por no haber salido de casa en los últimos 7 días. Solamente un 32,8% de los participantes del estudio no salieron de casa en el período considerado, 36,3% salieron entre 1 y 2 veces, 15,2% entre 3 a 5 veces y 15,7% salieron todos los días. Las principales razones para salir de casa fueron comprar medicamentos o alimentos (74,2%), trabajar (25,1%), pagar cuentas (24,5%), atención en salud (10,5%), hacer ejercicios (6,2%) y encontrar con familiares o amigos (8,8%). Entre los que salieron de casa, un 97,3% usaron siempre mascarillas faciales y un 97,3% higienizaron siempre las manos. Las mujeres salieron menos de casa que los hombres. Estos salieron con más frecuencia para trabajar y para hacer ejercicio. Ellas salieron más para la atención en salud. Los hombres (odds ratio - OR = 1,84), los con escolaridad más alta (OR = 1,48 y 1,95 para 5-8 y 9 años) y los residentes en áreas urbanas (OR = 1,54) salieron más para realizar actividades esenciales, independientemente de la edad y de otros factores relevantes. Los resultados muestran una baja adhesión al distanciamiento social, pero altas prevalencias en el uso de mascarillas e higienización de las manos.O objetivo do estudo foi examinar a prevalência do distanciamento social, do uso de máscaras e da higienização das mãos ao sair de casa entre adultos brasileiros com 50 anos ou mais de idade.
