Americans Hesitant to Return to Normal in Short Term

If being out in public were entirely up to them at this moment during the global pandemic, a new Gallup poll finds 14% of Americans say they would resume their normal day-to-day activities right now, but the rest would hold off:

• 42% would wait until the number of new cases of COVID-19 declines significantly
• 38% would wait until there are no new cases for some period of time
• 7% would wait until a vaccine is developed
