How COVID-19 is changing our mental health

Abstract

As the COVID-19 pandemic enters its third year, the world is still gripped by the pandemic and grappling with its consequences. The coronavirus pandemic has had a significant impact on mental health, which has already been well-documented in the literature. This research trend will likely continue to grow stronger, as more and more studies are being published, which confirm the link between the incidence of mental health disorders and the coronavirus pandemic. Many studies highlight the mental health risks that frontline workers face, as well as the increase of mental health disorders in the general population during the pandemic literature (Gordon, 2020; Khan et al., 2020)
