Major investigated questions: respondents who are working were asked how safe they currently feel in general. Given the block of questions, they had to assess how the quarantine has affected their daily routine in general in various areas (financial situation, work - 7 choices in total). The survey was about the most important positive and negative effects on a personal level, and whether one had to study remotely in autumn (2020) (school, college, university etc.). Those who had to were asked to rate a block of statements related to participation in remote learning or studying (I have the right conditions at home for remote learning/studies, I have the necessary technical means for remote learning/studies - 6 choices in total). Next, all respondents were asked whether they agree that in the future in Lithuania (irrespective of the pandemic) the opportunities for students to study remotely should continue to be expanded as much as possible. There was a question about the number of children in the household under the age of 18 (inclusive) (including adopted and fostered children). Those respondents who have such children were asked to indicate their age. The survey was about whether any of these children were currently attending school and whether the school-age children living in the respondents' household had had any remote learning this autumn. Given the block of questions, the respondents had to assess the statements related to remote learning for school-age children living in a household (a child has suitable household conditions for remote learning, a child has the necessary technical tools for remote learning - 6 choices in total). They were asked whether they would agree to further have remote learning opportunities expanded for older children in Lithuania (irrespective of the pandemic), and how attendance at sports, art or other leisure activities has changed this autumn. For those who attended classes remotely, there was a block of statements provided, related to attending sport, art or other leisure activities remotely (I have suitable household conditions for remote leisure activities, I have the necessary technical tools for remote leisure activities - 6 choices in total). Next, all Lithuanian respondents were asked whether they would agree that in the future in Lithuania (regardless of the pandemic), the possibilities to participate in leisure activities remotely would continue to be expanded as much as possible and whether they know at least one person who has been diagnosed with a COVID-19 virus (coronavirus infection). Those respondents who had experienced fever, cough, sore throat or difficulty breathing were asked what had they done about it and whether they had been able to contact the coronavirus hotline and clinic. All respondents were asked if they had to stay in self-isolation for a while and if they would have the facilities to isolate themselves if necessary. After listing a few subjects, they were asked to indicate whether they felt anxious (you will contract COVID-19 virus, you will not receive proper treatment if you contract COVID-19 virus - 5 choices in total). The opinions on who is more responsible for controlling the pandemic, respondents or the government, were analysed. The survey went on the intention to get vaccinated once the coronavirus vaccine becomes available and the state of purpose. The opinions on when the coronavirus pandemic will end and whether it will be possible to travel abroad as easily next summer (2021) as it was possible before the coronavirus pandemic started were analysed. Respondents were asked to indicate what they envisioned as their holiday destination for the next summer and where they had travelled before the pandemic. They were asked whether they felt anxious about leaving the house and being in public spaces with people. Later, the survey about the Lithuanian population went on about having ever received unpaid help from anyone who was not a relative during the quarantine period, and if they had ever received unpaid help from anyone who was not related. Given the block of statements about various experiences, respondents were asked whether these statements relate to their current experiences (there are enough people I can turn to in times of trouble - 6 choices in total). At the end of the survey, they were asked whether they had needed to see a doctor at all over the last month.
