Purpose: This study investigated intentions and attitudes towards future parenthood and awareness of fertility among university students in South Korea. Methods: The participants comprised 166 female and male undergraduate students enrolled at five universities. A cross-sectional survey was conducted from May to July 2019 using the Korean version of the Fertility Awareness Questionnaire and Attitudes of Parenthood. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics based on participants' general characteristics, the χ² test to identify differences in intentions, and the t-test to evaluate attitudes towards parenthood and awareness of fertility in female and male students. Results: Both female and male students desired to have two children, but they lacked awareness about fertility.

Conclusion: It is important to provide health education emphasizing fertility awareness and parenthood in young adulthood so participants can consider these facts in advance. In addition, the government should provide resources for couples making parenthood decisions.

This study was conducted to identify the subjective damage caused by COVID-19 and its related factors. The study subjects were members of the Korean Dental Association (KDA). We investigated the damage to dental clinics and hospitals caused by COVID-19 between January and April 2020. After analyzing the final 3,189 responses, the rate of decrease in patients was the highest at 34.9% in March, and the rate of decrease in income was the highest at 34.0% in April. As a result of the multilevel analysis, the damage caused by COVID-19 was greater in regions with more confirmed patients, more careers, and fewer dental staff. The government should establish a compensation plan for hospitals and clinics to prevent the collapse of the medical system due to the prolonged COVID-19. In addition, support for dentistry should be provided to maintain the oral health care system in the future.
