The COVID-19 pandemic has thrown our lives out of gear, causing sweeping changes to nearly all aspects of human society. The shift from working or studying from a workplace (offices, colleges and schools) to WFH (Work From Home) or SFH (Study From Home), has been the most prominent change. To study the impacts of this change further, a questionnaire form consisting of 10 questions was circulated, in which 42 people across various age groups participated. Data analysis and visualisation of the collected data was done with the aim of answering the following research questions - whether there was a change in screen time before and during the pandemic, and whether there was any relation between number of vaccine doses taken and people’s decision to return to their workplaces. This study concludes that there was a marked increase in screen time for most people by an average of 2.7 hours. It also discovers that there is a mild positive correlation between the number of vaccination doses taken, and people’s decision to return to their workplaces
