2021 for many people was supposed to be a new start and a goodbye to a bad 2020. However, the worries of January are quite similar to the ones last year ended with.

Therefore, the Covid-19 related worries are approximately the same as in December.
Additionally, there has been an increase in people's worries for unemployment and jobs, as people, amongst other things, are worried about if small businesses will survive another lockdown.
