Death, grief and bereavement all look different in the current COVID-19 pandemic. Patients and families are suffering as a result of COVID-19 itself, and the measures required to contain it. As a result, health professionals need to be aware of potential for additional psychological distress, as well as the risk of prolonged grief disorder.
