#CoronavirusOutbreak has upended life for Americans of all backgrounds and circumstances. But our @pewresearch polling over last month has found some groups being hit harder than others. Thread on what we've found so far 1/.
From our first survey, we've seen big gaps in personal health concerns. Black and Hispanic Americans have been much more likely than whites to say outbreak is a 'major' threat to their own health. Older adults also more likely to express this than younger adults. 2/.
Negative job impacts from outbreak vary widely across groups. In mid-March, Hispanic adults, younger adults and those with lower incomes were especially likely to say their household had already faced job loss/pay cut. 3/.

Ability to #WorkFromHome closely tied to negative job impacts from #CoronavirusOutbreak. Postgraduates are 3x+ more likely than those without college experience to say they've done this as a result of outbreak. 4/. https://pewrsr.ch/2XrssAc
Negative job impacts from #coronavirus also vary by industry. Young people especially vulnerable: Among the 19.3 million workers ages 16 to 24 in the economy overall, 9.2 million, or nearly half, are employed in service-sector. 5/. https://pewrsr.ch/3a2A4vM
There's a 'digital divide' in responding to #CoronavirusOutbreak, including for teens trying to keep up as learning moves online. For instance, a quarter of lower-income teens don't have access to a home computer. 6/. https://pewrsr.ch/3a4GXN0
In dealing with the emotional stress caused by the #CoronavirusOutbreak, those who see the outbreak as a major threat to their own health or finances are especially likely to have experienced high psychological distress. 7/.

Loneliness amid outbreak and #StayAtHome 
can hit those living by themselves harder than others. Americans are more likely than others around the world to live alone, including seniors: 27% of older Americans live by themselves. 8/.
