June 12, 2020: When asked about what worries them most about the coronavirus, 51% now say it's a threat to the U.S. economy. A Ballotpedia national survey found that 43% are more worried about the health threat.[1]
This is the third straight week that more people have expressed greater concern about the economic threat rather than the health threat. It's the first time more than 50% have expressed that concern.[1]
These figures represent a significant change from late March when just 38% were more worried about the economic threat. At that time, 53% expressed greater concern about the health threat.
By late April and early May, the figures had generally evened up. Since then, the trend has continued to show a relative decline in concern about the health threat.
