#InTheTimeOfCovid disq.us/t/3mvutb0 @drdagly @kandrusky @RajBhardwajMD

prevalence rate of (self-reported) anxiety & depression symptoms among Chinese #nurses working in the #covid19 #pandemic was 27.9% & 43.0%, respectively. #InTheTimeOfCovid @UnitedNurses disq.us/t/3mvutb0

medical staff who'd had direct contact treating #covid19 patients had higher anxiety scores; lack of professional knowledge (39.4%) & being infected (33.3%) were the key concerns disq.us/t/3mvutb0 #InTheTimeOfCovid

results = gov't authorities should do early detection & prevention of anxiety among medical staff, to prevent frontline staff from developing psychological constraints from fighting the #pandemic #InTheTimeOfCovid @UnitedNurses @kandrusky @realABHealthMin disq.us/t/3mvutb0
