Data from questionnaires and serological analyses (detection of antibodies directed against SARS-CoV-2) on a representative cohort of the population aged 15 years or more living in France in January 2020. The questionnaire covers a wide range of topics: socio-demographic information, health status (physical and mental), use of healthcare, professional and financial situation, family and love life, outings and application of social distancing measures, confidence and representations. A proportion of respondents were also offered a self-sampling kit so that a serological analysis could be carried out on a sample of their blood and the presence of antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 could be tested; this proportion varies according to the survey periods. PEriod 1 data were collected in May 2020, straddling the period between lockdown and the lifting of lockdown.
