The COVID-19 pandemic, and the measures taken by the government to contain it, had a huge impact on individuals' lives in Italy. According to a survey conducted in April 2021, many citizens experienced negative feelings and difficult situations in the previous year. Fear was an extremely common feeling. Around 79 percent of Italian respondents feared an uncertain future, while 76 percent were afraid of catching the virus and being hospitalized. Economic reasons played a role too. Two in three Italians, indeed, experienced a decrease of their purchasing power.
The same survey was carried on in all the G7 countries. By looking at the results, Italians had the worst time. The number of Italians sharing the negative experiences listed here, in fact, was consistently higher than the average across the seven countries.
