Data was collected, entered, presented using SPSS version 25.0. Results This study covered 100 IT students. The study found that their overall adequate knowledge regarding the Covid 19 was among less than half of them (41%). The weakest areas that they reported lack of knowledge were related to the isolation period, the mortality rates of the diseases, and the risky groups for the infection. Moreover, the study showed that nearly two thirds of them had negative attitudes toward Covid 19 disease.
