Poll: Two-Thirds of Americans Taking Precautions for Coronavirus
A new KFF coronavirus poll finds two thirds of the public (67%) say they are taking precautions as a result, and large shares worry about its impact on their family’s health and finances.
This includes four in 10 who changed travel plans (42%) or canceled plans to attend large gatherings (40%), and about a third who stocked up on food or supplies (35%). In addition, a quarter (26%) report staying home from work, school or other regular activities, while one in eight (12%) say they bought or wore a protective mask.
