In this question respondents could enter as many ticks as they wished, i.e. from none to a maximum of four for concerns about all. There would have been an element of self-limitation perhaps as people might want to limit their response so as to make the main concerns they have stand out.
In all there were a total of 1251 responses, the breakdown as percentages is
