As the coronavirus continues, a significant number of people in the United States, France and the United Kingdom say the pandemic is affecting their everyday life. While in Germany, fewer than half say their lives have been impacted.

The report published by Pew Research Center on Wednesday indicates that a majority of Germans say life has not been significantly changed by the coronavirus pandemic. The poll, which was conducted in December, surveyed 4,000 adults in the U.S., Germany, France and the UK.

While 74 percent of Americans say the pandemic is affecting their everyday lives a great deal or a fair amount, up from 67 percent in June. The majority of those living in France and the UK also reported their lives have been impacted at least a fair amount due to the pandemic.

"Only in Germany do fewer than half of those surveyed say the coronavirus has changed their life, while 52 percent say their life has not changed much or not changed at all," Pew said.

The survey also found that 77 percent of Germans rate their government's handling of the coronavirus as "good." By comparison, less than half of Americans approve of how the country is handling the coronavirus pandemic. Asked whether the country is doing a bad or a good job, 58 percent of those polled rated it as "bad."

Meanwhile, people in all four countries are optimistic about future pandemics. In the U.S., 67 percent say they feel optimistic about the country's ability to handle future crises. In Germany, UK, and France, the figures are 77 percent, 68 percent, and 60 percent respectively.
