A recently released study by the Pew Research Center shows that 79% of Americans agree that churches should be subject to the same corona-virus related restrictions as other organizations. See the report here.
This view remains the majority view even when broken down by demographic, though the exact size of the majority changes. For example, 65% of Republicans have this view while 93% of Democrats have this view.
Of those who regularly attend church, most would like churches to open with various safety procedures in place. In fact, this is in line with what is already happening in many congregations that are meeting.
Many churches have also adapted by holding online services, and the majority of those who watch online services say that they are satisfied with those services.
