Nearly two-thirds of Americans––that’s 64 percent––do not trust President Donald Trump’s coronavirus response, according to the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll.

Tellingly, nearly a third of Republicans say they don’t trust the president’s coronavirus response. 29 percent of Republicans say they don’t believe the president is a credible source of information related to the pandemic.

“Only 34% of Americans place a great deal or good amount of trust in what he says about COVID-19, while 64% trust him not so much or – in the case of nearly half the public – not at all,” ABC reports. The outlet notes that there’s a “disconnect in terms of priorities” with  Americans divided (63 percent-33 percent) on controlling the spread of the virus versus restarting the economy.

“Concern about catching the disease, moreover, remains persistently high. Sixty-six percent are very or somewhat worried that they or someone in their immediate family might become infected, and an additional 5% of Americans now say this already has happened,” the outlet observes.
