Poll: two thirds of the population support advice to wear a mouth mask

Many non-carriers at FvD and PVV

Of the people who do not see anything in wearing a mouth mask, the vast majority say they would rather avoid such public spaces. 25 percent of all respondents say so. Among them are a striking number of voters of Forum for Democracy and the PVV, while GroenLinks voters are clearly underrepresented.

More people are afraid of becoming infected with the corona virus than last summer. In July, 9 percent of the Dutch still thought that the chance of contracting the virus was high, now that percentage has doubled. The fear of infection is still not as great as it was just after the start of the corona crisis. In March, 38 percent thought the chance of getting the virus was high, the poll shows.
