Description: Objective. To compare the perceptions and experiences between the A(H1N1) and Covid-19 pandemics in a univer­sity population. Materials and methods. Online surveys were administered during the influenza A(H1N1) –originated in Mexico in 2009– and Covid-19 epidemics. Measures: so­ciodemographic characteristics, knowledge, information and communication, perception of risk, physical and mental health, effects on daily life, and preventive behaviors. Results. This study included 24 998 respondents, 51.36% from the A(H1N1) group and 48.63% from the Covid-19 group. Differences were observed in the perception of severity. During the influenza A(H1N1) pandemic worry was the feeling reported most frequently, while for Covid-19 it was anxiety. Covid-19 had greater impact on students’ family economy and caused a higher uncertainty.
