Over a seven-week period, 533 participants completed weekly self-report surveys which measured target subjective virus health, addition potential predictive related factors, social vulnerability disease (PVD), economic circumstances. Viral spread, mortality governmental responses further included analysis predictors. Results revealed that our models could accurately predict (accounting for approximately 23% variance) such worrying about shortages food supplies interestingly, spread did not contribute this prediction. Furthermore, results predicted PVD, physical exercise, attachment anxiety age input features, albeit with smaller effect sizes.
