This is of great concern as the field of Anesthesiology has expanded its services to various specialities like intensive care, postoperative pain management, labour analgesia, accident and trauma management, casualty etc. the role assigned to the anesthesiologist remains inaccurate even during COVID 19 pandemic.

The aim of this study was to evaluate general publics' perception about anesthesiologist& anesthesia in operating and especially intensive care units during COVID 19 pandemic.
