Fears of hiring COVID-19 at the lowest point last year: Gallup

According to a new survey, fears across the country about coronavirus recruitment have dropped to the lowest level since a month after the pandemic began last year.

The Gallup poll released Tuesday found that 35 percent of U.S. adults say they are very or somewhat concerned about hiring COVID-19. This percentage represents the lowest level of concern since April 2020.

At the same time, 22% now say they are very or moderately concerned about access to hospital services or the treatment of the virus, and another 14% are concerned about access to a COVID-19 test in case they need it. .

Gallup noted that the percentage of people worried about getting COVID-19 has dropped 14 points from February. Fear of infections peaked last summer at 59%, the survey giant noted.

Although general cases of coronavirus, hospitalizations, and deaths began to begin as more Americans were vaccinated, bags of infection have appeared in several states in the country, fueling fears of another deadly wave of pandemic.

“We have a lot to look forward to, so many promises and potential of where we are, and so many reasons for hope. But right now I’m scared,” said the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Rochelle Walensky last week.

Among Americans who reported receiving the full vaccination, 21% are still concerned about catching COVID-19, Gallup found in its survey. Just over 1 in 3 – 37 percent – of partially vaccinated vaccines, meaning they have only received one shot, are also concerned.

The Gallup survey was conducted March 15-21 among 3,905 adults. It has a margin of error of 2 percentage points.
