A poll of more than 28,000 people across 14 countries has found that people in the UK and Canada are the least likely to believe businesses should reopen if the coronavirus has not been fully contained. Three-quarters of respondents in each country expressed this view. 7 in 10 also said they would be nervous about leaving their homes even if businesses are allowed to reopen and travel resumes. This is in sharp contract with some other countries: those less nervous include Russia (37%) and France and Australia (32%). Researchers have concluded this suggests "the turnaround in the economy might not be quite so fast as hoped for.”
