The majority of Americans wouldn't feel comfortable attending a sports event in person this summer, according to a new survey by Yahoo Finance-Harris Poll.

After four months of lockdown due to the pandemic, American pro sports leagues are returning to play. But the pandemic isn’t over.

If the biggest question around the return of sports is whether the leagues can keep their COVID-19 cases down, the second-biggest question is when they might be able to have fans in the stands. The majority of respondents – 70% – feel “not at all comfortable” or “not very comfortable” attending a sports event in person this summer. Only 10% of people say they would feel “very comfortable.”
