(CNN) Americans' concerns about coronavirus are again on the rise after previously hitting their lowest point in the pandemic, according to two surveys released Monday. Americans' personal concerns about Covid-19 have also risen, the survey finds, although less dramatically. Just 29% say they're even somewhat worried about getting the virus, up from 17% last month but far below the majorities that said the same through most of last year. In the most recent survey, for instance, 40% say they're avoiding events with large crowds, virtually identical to the 39% who were staying away from those events the month before. Slim majorities of Americans continue to say both that President Joe Biden and that their state's governor are doing a good job dealing with the pandemic, Monmouth finds.
