The change in the self-reported health status of residents associated with the reduced aircraft noise around Tan Son Nhat airport (TSN) after the epidemic outbreak in early 2020 was investigated in three stages. Stage 1 is pre-outbreak when the airport was operating at its highest capacity. Phases 2 and 3 are three months and six months after the stop of international flight operation implemented in March 2020. Data on the residents' health status was obtained from face-to-face interviews. The questionnaire items were composed of Noise annoyance questions using the 11-point ICBEN scale, the Total Health Index, Health and lifestyle questionnaire, Depression Scale revised questionnaire, and questionnaires to identify insomnia, hypertension, and hearing loss. Other factors related to living conditions such as education, income, or housing were also collected as health adjustment factors. The noise levels of phases 2 and 3 were estimated by updating the noise contour map of phase 1 using the TSN airport's operation data in corresponding periods in 2020. This study provided evidence relating to variation of the residents' health status due to the noise situation change.

This article presents an overview of the self-reported health status of the population of the European Union Member States (EU-28) in the year 2018 based on Eurostat data. The self-reported health status of the inhabitants of the Slovak Republic has been analyzed in more detail with regard to the availability of individual data of the survey results from the European Statistics of Income and Living Condition (EU-SILC). The aim of the article is to analyse the relationship between social and demographic characteristics and the self-perceived health of the population in the EU-28 countries and their comparison as well as a comparison with the results found in the Slovak Republic. The characteristics gender, age, educational level, income, employment, and place of residence have been considered as the determinants of the self-reported health status. The obtained results of self-reported health status by selected demographics and social indicators in the European Union Member States have been compared in visual form using tables and graphs. For assessment of impact selected socio-economic and demographic characteristics on the self-perceived health by inhabitants in the Slovak Republic has been used the logistic regression model based on data extracted from the EU SILC 2016 cross-sectional component provided by the Statistical Office of the Slovak Republic. The obtained results can provide valuable information for health protection policy in EU countries and especially in the Slovak Republic. It could also be used to compare self-reported health status in the EU countries and the health status established based on the official health data published by European institutions.
