The current outbreak of COVID-19 coronavirus infection among humans in Wuhan (China) and its spreading around the globe is heavily impacting on the global health and mental health. Despite all resources employed to counteract the spreading of the virus, additional global strategies are needed to handle the related mental health issues.
Published articles concerning mental health related to the COVID-19 outbreak and other previous global infections have been considered and reviewed.
This outbreak is leading to additional health problems such as stress, anxiety, depressive symptoms, insomnia, denial, anger and fear globally. Collective concerns influence daily behaviors, economy, prevention strategies and decision-making from policy makers, health organizations and medical centers, which can weaken strategies of COVID-19 control and lead to more morbidity and mental health needs at global level.

此次疫情正在全球范围内导致更多的健康问题,如压力、焦虑、抑郁症状、失眠、否认、愤怒和恐惧。集体关注影响着决策者、卫生组织和医疗中心的日常行为、经济、预防策略和决策,这可能削弱 COVID-19 控制策略,并在全球范围内导致更多的发病和精神健康需求。
