Most Americans said they do not expect it will be safe to have social gatherings until at least June, according to a new poll.

Sixty-five percent of Americans surveyed said they expect the coronavirus pandemic to be controlled enough to allow for gatherings of more than 10 people by the end of June or later, according to a Washington Post-University of Maryland poll released Tuesday.

The poll found that 20 percent believe it will have to be at least the end of June for such gatherings to take place, 13 percent said they expected that to be by end of July, 19 percent said later in 2020 and 13 percent said longer than that.

The poll comes as officials weigh when to lift restrictions in place to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus and reopen economies.
