Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was first recognised in December 2019. The subsequent pandemic has caused 4.3 million deaths and affected the lives of billions. It has increased psychosocial risk factors for mental illness including fear, social isolation and financial insecurity and is likely to lead to an economic recession. COVID-19 is associated with a high rate of neuropsychiatric sequelae. The long-term effects of the pandemic on mental health remain uncertain but could be marked, with some predicting an increased demand for psychiatric services for years to come. COVID-19 has turned a spotlight on mental health for politicians, policy makers and the public and provides an opportunity to make mental health a higher public health priority. We review longstanding reasons for prioritising mental health and the urgency brought by the COVID-19 pandemic, and highlight strategies to improve mental health and reduce the psychiatric fallout of the pandemic.
2019年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）于2019年12月首次被发现。随后的大流行已导致430万人死亡，并影响了数十亿人的生活。它增加了导致精神疾病的心理社会风险因素，包括恐惧、社会隔离和经济不安全，并且可能导致经济衰退。COVID-19与高比例的神经精神后遗症相关。大流行对心理健康的长期影响尚不确定，但可能很显著，一些人预测未来几年对精神科服务的需求会增加。COVID-19让政治家、政策制定者和公众聚焦于心理健康，并提供了一个将心理健康提升为更高公共卫生优先事项的机会。我们回顾了将心理健康列为优先事项的长期原因以及COVID-19大流行带来的紧迫性，并强调了改善心理健康和减少大流行的精神影响的策略。
