​The results of the latest ‘How Are We Doing in Wales’ public engagement survey have been released by Public Health Wales.

The key findings are:

• 66% of people said they are planning to either have visitors to their home or visit other people’s homes over the Christmas period (23rd-27thDecember).
• 45% of people said they are intending to form a Christmas bubble.
• 53% of people think the changes being made to restrictions over Christmas are about right; 31% would prefer tighter restrictions and 15% would prefer more relaxed restrictions.  
• 39% of people said they are following the restrictions ‘completely’ (down from 47% in the last survey week), and a further 50% reported majority compliance*.
• 52% of people have been worrying ‘a little’ or ‘a lot’ about their mental health and wellbeing (down from 60% in the last survey week).
• 68% of people said they would want a coronavirus vaccination if one was available. 

The latest Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) public engagement survey report from Public Health Wales covers the period of 30 November – 6 December, when 600 people were surveyed.

Every two weeks, Public Health Wales conducts interviews with hundreds of people aged 18 or over across Wales, to understand how Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) and the measures being used to prevent its spread are affecting the physical, mental and social wellbeing of people in Wales.

The survey is part of a raft of measures implemented by Public Health Wales to support public health and wellbeing through Coronavirus.
