COVID-19 vaccination intent has risen in the past few weeks.
New Ipsos-World Economic Forum global survey highlights the increasing demand for COVID-19 vaccines and diverging views on whether vaccination should be mandatory.
Our monthly round-up of the latest research and thinking from Ipsos around the world includes new global surveys on life during the pandemic, a new white paper on quality in market research and special features on US and French society.
The global rollout of COVID-19 vaccines will be the largest, fastest and most challenging vaccination program in history. This could bring many problems. Some we will anticipate; some we won’t. One glaring problem that is quickly emerging is a major mismatch between vaccine supply and demand.
How and where the world shops and dines transformed during the coronavirus pandemic. As health orders in many countries have called for sheltering in place and minimizing non-essential trips to curb the spread of the virus, consumers throughout the world report eating in-restaurant less often (63% on average across 28 countries) and shopping online more often (43%) than they did before the pandemic. However, buying locally – whether from local farmers and manufacturers, local businesses, or local restaurants – is largely unchanged compared to before the pandemic.
Ipsos has invested in a global network of online access research for the past 20 years to deliver the highest standard of research insights. We believe the future of quality market research will continue to depend on properly managed research panels.

But from a dietary perspective, sugar is seen as the main component that people would look to reduce or eliminate to help with weight loss.
