Markers of mood: Research NZ polls Kiwis on Covid-19 fallout

From Sunday Morning, 8:10 am on 29 March 2020

Research NZ are working to take the pulse of the nation week-by-week as Covid-19 restrictions have the country on lockdown. Research NZ partner Emanuel Kalafatelis discusses the preliminary poll, which was taken while the country was at Alert Level 2, and shows the majority of people think it will be more than six months before things are back to normal. Meanwhile eight percent of people think things will never return to how they were before.
