Materials and Methods: A quantitative study with an evaluative approach of randomized controlled trial design with study group and control group of 600 students from first-year Bachelor of Dental Science (BDS) and Basic B.Sc. Nursing. HIV knowledge questionnaire 30 explored the level of knowledge regarding HIV/AIDS and PLHIV with the probability multistage cluster random sampling technique. The collected data were analysed using SPSS. Results: Comparing the level of knowledge of 600 health care students between the study and control groups during the pre-test had no statistically significant difference at p=0.62 level. In post-test I and II, the number of students who had adequate knowledge in the study group was more than that in the control group (51% vs. 34%) and (83.6% vs. 57%), respectively. Conclusion Based on the present study's statistical evidence, the Maieutic Sensitization Program (MSP) was influential on HIV/AIDS and PLHIV among health care students in the study group than the control group who did not receive the study MSP.

Background: Coronavirus illness (COVID-19) reached the level of a significant public health emergency in 2019, with an estimated worldwide death toll of more than 1,00,000 people 2019.

Nursing students had adequate knowledge (13.67 ± 3.46), a positive attitude (48.14 ± 12.29), and good practices (32.6 ± 6.12), according to the results of a survey. Female students, compared to males (0.006, p<0.05), were more likely to follow better practices. Significant positive associations were found between age (0.025, p<0.05), gender (0.006, P<0.05), living areas (0.031, p<0.05), grade (0.000, p<0.05), Clinical practice experienced (0.016, p<0.05) and practice on COVID -19.
