An analysis of the Gallup Switzerland company was carried out within the framework of the Gallup International Association in 20 countries with 20,000 respondents, in Switzerland 1,000 people participated.
For example, 61 percent of Swiss people fear that they or a member of their own family will become infected with the coronavirus. As of mid-March, only 48 percent had expressed this concern. Only 27 percent now consider the threat posed by the virus to be overblown, compared to 53 percent in March.
30 percent think it worsens
30 percent think the worst is yet to come. About 45 percent expect the situation to continue as it is now, only a quarter (25 percent) think they are on the mountain.
Respondents have great confidence in the measures decided by the government: 72 percent certify that the Federal Council handled the Corona crisis correctly. 86 percent of the Swiss are willing to accept civil rights restrictions if this helps to reduce the spread of the virus. The willingness to do so is also greater than in March, when it was 72 percent.
Every third person is professionally affected
According to the survey, one in three Swiss is affected by the economic impact at work: three percent of respondents stated that they had lost their job. 17% work part time, 15% have temporarily stopped working.
The financial impact of the crisis is already noticeable in many people’s wallets: 14 percent of respondents said they had lost a significant portion of their income.
Create in exchange for normal
Gallup also asked survey participants about their assessment of the global political situation after the crisis. Optimism predominates in the answers: 56 percent assume that the world will be as it was before the crisis was overcome, a third expect a completely new situation.
In terms of relations between the great powers, the hope of less confrontation (36 percent) dominates, on the one hand, and an equal number (38 percent) expect global politics to become more conflictive than before.
