Similarly, hand hygiene and other preventative practices also vary among pilgrims, making it more difficult for researchers to ascertain whether vaccine uptake and health behaviors overall have improved in comparison to previous years or studies [5] [6] [7] . To address these research gaps, we conducted a cohort study to explore Australian Hajj pilgrims' knowledge about the risk of diseases during Hajj, assess their preparedness and use of preventive measures at three times points (before, during and after Hajj) , investigate the factors affecting their preventive health behavior, and determine the number of reported infections during and after Hajj. This cohort study captured and compared the health behavior, knowledge, attitudes and practices of Australian Hajj pilgrims regarding preventative measures against communicable diseases throughout the course of Hajj travel (before, during and after the journey).	./cache/cord-305460-wln758og.txt	./txt/cord-305460-wln758og.txt
