Political Science Professor James Druckman co-leads research into the impact of COVID-19 conducted by a university consortium. The consortium includes Northwestern, Harvard, Northeastern, and Rutgers.
The consortium released a new survey that showed that colder weather driving Illinoisans indoors and COVID fatigue was likely contributing to the second wave of COVID-19.
“The numbers are not promising in terms of what to expect in the coming months,” said Druckman. “It seems that necessary behaviors are slipping, and this could put extreme strain on our healthcare infrastructure.”
