SheSpeaks Coronavirus Survey Wave 7
Since the pandemic began, SheSpeaks has run multiple waves of surveys about the coronavirus and its impact on our community. Our latest coronavirus survey, Wave 7, tells us that as states have re-opened, consumers are venturing out more and more. As a supplement to the coronavirus survey, we also asked our members about the current social unrest sweeping the country.
