Figure 2

Maximum acceptable cumulative risk of COVID-19 by preference group. Each of the 4 figures represents COVID-19 risk levels considered important to members of each latent class as avoiding undesirable changes in other factors. For example, in the waiters class, respondents would accept an increase in the risk of COVID-19 by 5.9 percentage-points to avoid an increase in the percentage of households below the poverty line from 13% to 16% rather than from 13% to 20%. The dashed lines indicate that acceptable COVID-19–related risks for the subsequent level were greater than 25%. Note: Acceptable COVID-19 risks are negative for the waiters class, because they considered it desirable to delay reopening of nonessential businesses whereas the other 3 classes considered such delays to be undesirable.
