You think about it, don't you? What if? What if you were to contract COVID-19? Are you strong enough to beat it? I think about that. And, apparently, most of us are concerned.
A recent study from Angus Reid Institute found "concerns about personally contracting the virus is rebounding after declining" earlier this year.
59% of us are "worried about getting sick" and that's up 13 points from last month.
The study found concern varies across generations, as one might expect. 71% of us who are 55 years of age and older are concerned about getting sick while only 41% of those in the 18 to 34 years old bracket say they're concerned.
What about masks? Only 20% of Canadians "say they always wear a mask...in public" with 35% saying they wear one "most of the time". It's interesting to note, 32% say "they rarely wear one" and 13% of respondents "never do".
And, what about mandatory masks? Well, Angus Reid found 55% of Saskatchewan residents would support the move. That, my friends, is the lowest in the country.
