The population in this study were 30 people who were positive for COVID-19 and 30 people were negative for COVID-19. The measurement of this study uses a questionnaire that has been tested for validity. Data analysis used frequency distribution test (univariate) and Spearman correlation test (bivariate).Results: Based on the frequency data obtained good knowledge of the case group (60.0%) while the control group (30.0%). Good attitude in the case group (96.7%) while the control group (76.7%). Spearman test results obtained p value .000 (<0.05) and the correlation coefficient is known to be .467. Based on the results of the Spearman test, the p value was .020 (<0.05) and the correlation coefficient was .295.Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between knowledge and the incidence of covid-19 and a moderate correlation. There is a significant relationship between attitude and the incidence of covid-19 and a low correlation. In the Mulyojati sub-district, the case group with good knowledge was higher than the control group, while the good attitude in the case group was higher than the control group.
