642-01 Indians fear levels
are increasing as India re-opens (Click for Details) (India) As
India starts the process of re-starting the economy with ‘Unlock 1’, data
from YouGov’s ongoing Covid-19 tracker shows an increasing number of urban
Indians are worried about losing their jobs due to the Coronavirus outbreak.
According to the tracker, 45% Indians said they were very or fairly worried
about job loss when we first surveyed them in early May. This coincides with
the time of ‘Lockdown 3.0’ in India. As the lockdown moved into its fourth
edition, the fear levels intensified, and towards the end of ‘Lockdown 4.0’
and beginning of ‘Unlock 1’, 54% respondents said they are very or fairly
worried about losing their jobs. This is a total of 9% points increase over a
period of four weeks. The figure is much higher among people in their
thirties, with 62% of them feeling insecure about their jobs. (YouGov) June 10, 2020 4.11 Society » Health |

of the nation being the first in the world the world to roll out a wearable
device to track COVID-19. With an online petition gathering over 50,000
signatures so far, the tracking token appears to be quite a polarising topic. In spite of the government reiterating
that the token will not track one’s location, Singaporeans remain divided on
the issue. Over half (57%) are willing and the under half (43%) are unwilling
to wear / carry a tracking token. Looking at the degree to which Singaporeans
are willing, one in five (18%) are very willing, two in five (39%) are
somewhat willing, a quarter (26%) are somewhat unwilling and one in six (17%)

receiving backlash on social media, the overall sentiment around the brand
has improved following the launch of its new commercial. Community real

view the future. The corona pandemic has created changing and new consumption
patterns, but when the pandemic is over will the Norwegians' behavior be the
same as before or will they have changed? We have asked Norwegians how they
view the future. Every third Norwegian does not believe that their behavior
will have changed as a result of the coronavirus. Especially men are of this
opinion (37% versus 26% of women). However, a larger proportion of Norwegians
(44%) disagree and believe that their behavior will be different in the
future. In general, many will support local businesses more, spend less cash
and buy more environmentally friendly products. (YouGov) June 16, 2020 4.7 Society » Morality, Values & Customs /

decision-makers spending less money due
to coronavirus (Click for
Details) (UK) Kraft Heinz and Procter & Gamble
recently indicated that they might increase their respective marketing spends
in an attempt to build “momentum” and invest in
their brands during the COVID-19 lockdown. At a time of widespread
cost-cutting, job losses and reduced economic activity, it’s an approach that
might be considered unorthodox – especially given global budget cuts that
occurred as recently as August 2019. Data from YouGov Business Omnibus
suggests that firms which are increasing their marketing outlay are the
exception rather than the rule. In a recent poll of marketing
decision-makers, half (50%) said their spend had decreased with a third (35%)
saying they were spending “much less”. Only 13% are paying for more marketing
and advertising. (YouGov) June 08, 2020 3.8 Economy » Enterprise/ Investments |

children during the coronavirus lockdown are struggling to maintain
discipline and motivation. Reception and year one and six pupils returned to

video game gambling (Click for Details) (UK) Many
Britons stuck inside on lockdown are turning to video games to keep
themselves and their children entertained. Many of these games allow players
to use real money to buy virtual items, or even to play games of chance for
virtual rewards. New YouGov research shows that most Brits want to see
changes in the law to protect gamers from what is, essentially, a form of
gambling. The “Loot Box” system, which is used in many popular games such as Fifa and Fortnite as well as
free-to-play mobile games, awards the player a random in-game reward. These
loot boxes are often brought with in-game currencies paid for with real money

is a major milestone on the long road back to normality for the UK, as
non-essential shops open their doors for the first time since March 23rd. But
with the COVID-19 pandemic still present, will shoppers be willing to return to shopping in person? Of
the high street shops opening today, clothing stores are the place Brits will
feel most comfortable returning (40%). But this is some way off garden centres (64%) which opened on the 13th of May. These take
the top spot as the place Brits are most comfortable returning to, possibly
due to their open-aired nature. Another two fifths (40%) of Brits say they
would also be comfortable returning to indoor shopping centres

say they wouldn’t be comfortable heading into their local indoor shopping centre just yet. (YouGov) June 14, 2020 4.7 Society » Morality, Values &

World Health Organization, a specialized agency of the United Nations, has
historically served several public health functions, including fighting
communicable and non-communicable diseases. It has played a high-profile role
in addressing the global spread of the coronavirus, which it characterized as
a pandemic in early March. But in mid-April, U.S. President Donald Trump
ordered his administration to halt U.S. funding of the organization, accusing
it of making a series of consequential mistakes in its handling of COVID-19.
On May 29, Trump announced that he would seek to terminate the country’s
relationship with the WHO completely and redirect funds toward other world
public health needs. Amid scrutiny of the WHO, here are key facts about the
organization and how Americans see it. (Pew

three months of COVID-19 than it did in
two years of the Great Recession (Click for Details) (USA) The COVID-19 outbreak and the economic
downturn it engendered swelled the ranks of unemployed Americans by more than
14 million, from 6.2 million in February to 20.5 million in May 2020. As a
result, the U.S. unemployment rate shot up from 3.8% in February – among the
lowest on record in the post-World War II era – to 13.0% in May. That rate
was the era’s second highest, trailing only the level reached in April
(14.4%). The rise in the number of unemployed workers due to COVID-19 is
substantially greater than the increase due to the Great Recession, when the
number unemployed increased by 8.8 million from the end of 2007 to the
beginning of 2010. The Great Recession, which officially lasted from December
2007 to June 2009, pushed the unemployment rate to a peak of 10.6% in January
2010, considerably less than the rate currently, according to a new Pew
Research Center analysis of government data. (Pew

COVID-19 outbreak has been unsparing in its impact on the U.S. labor market.
The number of employed workers fell by 24.7 million from February to April

employment decreasing by 20.6 million (or 13%) from February to May. The
downturn has affected some Americans more than others, particularly Hispanic
women, immigrants, young adults and those with less education. The decrease
in employment in the first three months of the COVID-19 recession is more

Spanish have cared more about her, and have enjoyed her even more. The
main reason why respondents have enjoyed both of their homes during
quarantine has been the share with your loved ones , especially households
with children (51%) compared to households without minor (31%). Also
because at home they feel more protected (18%) and because they have had more
time to organize, organize and put it to their liking (15%). In this first phase of lack of understanding, the
priority continues to be to enjoy encounters with friends and family, as long
as they are not very crowded. And although Spaniards feel like going
outside, they prefer to act in a measured manner and enjoy the
outdoors from home , organizing meetings at home (32%) or with
family or friends (34%), especially outdoors free in the gardens, balconies
and terraces, ahead of the 22% who prefer to stay in bars and restaurants. The main reason is that the safety of diners
prevails over anything, according to 44% of respondents, followed by 39% who
want to make their closest friends enjoy their home, just as they have done
in recent weeks. (YouGov) May 26, 2020 |
