The pandemic’s impact on their daily lives and their assessments of the perils it poses have exploded, a new USA TODAY/Ipsos Poll finds, amid rising uncertainty about when routine daily activities will seem safe again.”

“The changes are dramatic but not surprising in the wake of four devastating weeks in which almost all Americans have been ordered to stay at home and the nation’s death toll has reached a global record. The number who say the virus poses a high threat to them personally and to the USA  doubled.”

USA  doubled.”
