America's level of worry about COVID is at its lowest point to date

A Yahoo News/YouGov poll conducted May 24 - 26 finds that half of Americans (51%) are very or somewhat worried about the coronavirus, an 18-point drop compared to November of last year (69%). About half of Americans (49%) say they are not very worried or not worried at all about COVID-19 today, compared to 31% who said the same in late 2020. Most Americans (58%) now believe the worst of the pandemic is already behind us, a slight increase from 54% two weeks ago. Republicans (74%) are much more likely than Democrats (56%) to say the worst of the pandemic is behind the United States. Two-thirds of fully vaccinated Americans (65%) believe that the worst is over, a similar number to those who refuse to get vaccinated (63%).
