New J.L. Partners poll for @timesredbox shows the virus is already changing public views, and these are not necessarily going to just disappear afterwards.

First on China, 48% of Brits say they feel more negative, 43% the same, and 3% more positive - a net change of -45. (1/6)
Now look at the NHS, the biggest 'winner' in terms of public positivity.

An enormous 74% feel more positive, 22% about the same, and 2% (within the margin of error of zero) feel less positive. (2/6)
Important to note that on a lot of these, majorities feel the same as before. But there are some interesting marginal effects.

54% feel the same as before about the police, but 34% feel more positive with only 9% feeling more negative than before: a net improvement of +25. (3/6)
People feel more positive about their local community (+33 net), the Queen (+30 net), and the Government (+29).

The public is split on the public - 29% say they feel more positive about people in the UK as a whole, 24% more negative. (4/6)
The public's views of immigration do not appear to have shifted. 68% feel the same as they did before about immigration, 8% more positive, and 16% more negative: a net effect of -8% since the coronavirus outbreak began. (5/6)
The media has also seen a big hit - with a net fall of 29 points. More to come on this.

It's clear the virus is shifting views - in some areas in big ways - that may well stay with us after. Here's the full graph, and full tables are available at jlpartners.co.uk/polling-results (6/6)
