In an era of self-isolation and restrictions, consumers are paying more attention to their health and personal safety while dating, according to a new report commissioned by Kaspersky. Almost 1 in 2 (49%) respondents in Asia Pacific (APAC) prefer to only meet with someone in person who has antibodies or a vaccine certificate. This is seven points higher than the global average of 42%.

Consumers globally have generally become more anxious about meeting face-to-face since the start of the pandemic. The number of people who do not meet any of their dating matches offline has more than doubled (from 16% to 35%). 

The events of the global pandemic have significantly changed many of our daily activities, and dating is no exception. During enforced self-isolation periods, people spent more time on dating apps and the number of users is growing.
