  Answers from the Household Pulse Survey are tracking our mental, social, and economic health during the pandemic.
  
  The effects of COVID-19 go beyond numbers of cases and deaths.
  
  How many people are struggling under the stresses of the pandemic? Is mental health suffering as Americans try to manage isolation, worries about jobs, and a constant stream of anxiety-producing headlines? Are they putting their future health at risk by delaying trips to the doctor or avoiding the emergency room when needed?
  
  The Household Pulse Survey is helping to answer these questions by innovating and capturing data in new ways. The experimental survey aims to measure these other costs – and get answers before it’s too late to act.
