This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of depression and anxiety, and assess the knowledge, practice, and concerns regarding coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) among the residents of an urban slum in Chandigarh, India. Participants were screened using Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 scales. The mean (standard deviation) age of 200 enrolled participants was 33 (13) years with 83% ( = 166) being females. The prevalence of depression and anxiety was 3.5% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.95-6.05) and 2.5% (95% CI: 0.34-4.66), respectively. Of total, 46% ( = 92) knew that COVID-19 can transmit through droplets and 30.5% ( = 61) were concerned that they might get infected with disease. Half of the participants ( = 100) believed that there was unnecessary worry regarding COVID-19 and 78% ( = 156) covered mouth while coughing or sneezing. To cope with this critical situation, it is necessary to strengthen the awareness programs targeting the mental health issues of the people.
本研究旨在估计印度昌迪加尔一个城市贫民窟居民中抑郁症和焦虑症的患病率，并评估他们对2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）的认知、行为及担忧情况。使用患者健康问卷-9和广泛性焦虑障碍-7量表对参与者进行筛查。200名登记参与者的平均（标准差）年龄为33（13）岁，其中83%（n = 166）为女性。抑郁症和焦虑症的患病率分别为3.5%（95%置信区间[CI]：0.95 - 6.05）和2.5%（95%CI：0.34 - 4.66）。总体而言，46%（n = 92）知道COVID-19可通过飞沫传播，30.5%（n = 61）担心自己可能会感染该疾病。一半的参与者（n = 100）认为对COVID-19存在不必要的担忧，78%（n = 156）在咳嗽或打喷嚏时会捂住口鼻。为应对这一危急情况，有必要加强针对人们心理健康问题的宣传项目。
