COVID-19 Coping: a Barometer on Saskatchewan Mental Health
(Week 25)
[October 23, 2020] Since March, we have been tracking how Saskatchewan residents have been holding up with COVID-19. Here are the latest results from October 19 to 22, 2020.
Week 25 Results
We surveyed 400 Saskatchewan residents on our consumer panel, SaskWatch Research®, each week.
Self-reported mental health rises slightly, although stress levels remain steady.
However, outlook for the next few weeks declines to levels not seen since the beginning of the pandemic.
Nearly one half of Saskatchewan residents believe their personal impact on the environment has decreased since the onset of the pandemic.
Given recent outbreaks at nightclubs, a very strong majority of residents feel such businesses should be closed. Of interest, younger residents are much more in favour of closing nightclubs.
Since March 23, 2020, 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.
Let us know if you have any questions for our panel about COVID-19.
