Self-reported mental health surges to near record-breaking levels this week. Stress levels remain steady and below that of March and April.
Optimism for the weeks ahead keeps growing to new heights, with over six in ten believe things will get better and only one in twenty who feel things will get worse.
Opinions of COVID-19 vaccination rollout begin to plateau.
Eight in ten adults report having received their first vaccine, and one in ten have had their second shot, almost triple that of last week.
Presently, three quarters of those employed are in the workplace at least some of the time, with most being there every day. Post-pandemic, two thirds expect to be at work every day, and only one in ten expect to work from home full time.
Since the beginning of the pandemic, we started sharing a few brief insights from our online community, SaskWatch Research®. As we monitor and trend the results by week, we will share the information with you as we get it.
