Abstract

The article presents the results of observations (conducted using various methods) of the social effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in rural local communities in the period from September 1, 2020 to August 31, 2021, which is a continuation of the presentation of research on the effects of the first wave of the pandemic. At this stage of the analysis, special emphasis was placed on exemplification and explanation of the reluctant or even hostile attitude towards anti-COVID vaccinations in the countryside and in some regions. However, previously analyzed threads were not abandoned, i.e.: the functioning of the local government system in a situation of central/centralist pressures, the potential negative influence of the Catholic Church on attitudes towards vaccinations, the puzzling effects on the local economy, as well as remote learning with its new - also moral - problems. These observations can be used to reconstruct the functioning of the "local risk community", they also show some aspects of the functioning of contemporary Polish society (e.g. the depth of social divisions).
