Pennsylvanians are ready to move on from the COVID-19 pandemic.

That’s according to the annual health poll just released from the Muhlenberg College Institute of Public Opinion. The poll indicated that 75% of those responding said they think the worst of the pandemic is behind us and 84% said they support moving the state away from COVID limits.

On another topic, only one in four adults oppose making marijuana legal for recreational purposes.

Dr. Christopher Borick is the director of the Muhlenberg College Institute of Public Opinion and has details of the poll on Monday’s Smart Talk.
