Children are not indifferent to the significant psychological impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic. They experience fears, uncertainties, substantial changes to their routines, physical and social isolation alongside high level of parental stress. Understanding their emotions and responses is essential to properly address their needs during this pandemic. In this article, we highlight children's vulnerability, provide an overview of common symptoms of distress in different age groups, and summarize the interventions and resources available to promote child mental health and wellbeing during these challenging times. We advocate that prioritizing mental health including child & adolescent mental health is an essential component of any universal, community led response to COVID-19 Pandemic.
儿童并非对新冠疫情的重大心理影响无动于衷。他们会经历恐惧、不确定性、日常生活的巨大变化、身体和社交隔离,同时父母压力也很大。了解他们的情绪和反应对于在疫情期间妥善满足他们的需求至关重要。在本文中,我们强调了儿童的脆弱性,概述了不同年龄组常见的痛苦症状,并总结了在这些充满挑战的时期可用于促进儿童心理健康和幸福的干预措施及资源。我们倡导将包括儿童和青少年心理健康在内的心理健康置于优先地位,这是任何由社区主导的应对新冠疫情的普遍措施的重要组成部分。
