Risk perception has been studied in different countries with different population groups. However, there have been few studies conducted risk perception on older adults and limited data from African continent. This study aimed to assess coronavirus disease low risk perception level and associated factors among older adults in Ethiopia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We conducted a cross\u2010sectional study among older adults in Areka town, Wolaita Zone, Southern Ethiopia, from August 1, 2021, to August 30, 2021. Multi\u2010stage sampling method was applied to select study participants. The data were collected through a structured questionnaire with the mobile application created with Open Data Kit mobile.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Overall, risk perception was fairly low. Risk perception was particularly low among individuals aged 65 to 74\u2009years (AOR\u2009=\u20094.76, 95% CI: 2.35\u20139.64), poor practice on preventing coronavirus disease (AOR\u2009=\u20092.39, 95% CI: 1.51\u20133.78), with low trust level in medical professionals (AOR\u2009=\u20092.44, 95% CI: 1.45\u20134.10), no history of coronavirus disease (AOR\u2009=\u20096.45, 95%CI [2.02\u201320.58]), and poor perceived self\u2010efficacy for preventive practice (AOR\u2009=\u20092.25, 95% CI: 1.43\u20133.54).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In the current study area, the perception of risk of coronavirus disease was affected by age, perceived self\u2010efficacy, trust in medical professionals, preventive practice, and history of COVID\u201019.
