Answer:

The tsunami-like impact of a global pandemic has a way of drowning out foresight. Right now, it feels impossible to predict what the world will look like next week, let alone next year. Yet behavioral science and the broad sweep of history suggest that COVID-19 will transform our daily lives in the long run.

The changes in progress — some predictable, others still hard to fathom — started brewing as soon as case counts began to escalate. An ongoing University of Southern California study published its first round of results in March, reporting that the coronavirus had already created significant shifts in people’s behavior. Among the top findings: 85 percent of people reported washing their hands or using sanitizer more often than before, and 61 percent reported following social distancing guidelines. Twenty-two percent reported stockpiling essentials like food or water.

Behavioral changes like these may be fear-driven to some extent, says Yale School of Medicine health psychologist Valeria Martinez-Kaigi, who is not affiliated with the study. Large numbers of respondents reported bracing for the possibility that they would lose their jobs or contract the virus. However, “fear-based behavior modification is not proven to be sustainable,” Martinez-Kaigi says. After the initial coronavirus threat has passed, she predicts, new habits like hand washing, isolating and hoarding will scale back considerably.

But that doesn’t mean they’ll disappear altogether. Survivors of collectively traumatic events tend to be especially vigilant in situations that burned them in the past. When people are forced to react to a deadly virus running rampant, they may be especially keen to keep future viruses at bay.
