A cross-sectional online survey was conducted in January 2021. Google forms were used and shared through Line application. A set of KAP questionnaires was used to collect data. Results were analyzed using SPSS software.A total of 204 participants reported that they had a good knowledge;and possessed a positive attitude towards COVID-19. They were confident that Thailand can win the battle against COVID-19;and COVID-19 will be successfully controlled. For preventive behaviors, participants wore a face mask when leaving home and avoided crowded places. PLWHA who are on ART<1 year scored significantly higher as compared to both PLWHA who are on ART 1-5 years and who are on ART>5 years.
