Statistics of Michigan residents in the United States
Don’t blame me for turning the machine wrongly
Statistics of Michigan residents in the United States show that the proportion of women who have long-term COVID-19 is 4 times that of men, and diabetic patients with 1 times higher than that of non-diabetic patients.

Among these people, about 51.5 million people have suffered from anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, cognitive limitations and other mental illnesses to varying degrees, which has a great impact on their daily lives.
Under the epidemic, The mental health problems of medical staff are also very serious
49-year-old Italian female nurse working in the COVID-19 intensive care unit and was found to commit suicide
Indian doctor committed suicide after being helpless because she could not save the COVID-19 patient
UK "Occupational Health" A study published by the magazine pointed out that among more than 700 medical staff in 9 ICU wards in the UK, during the COVID-19 pandemic, more than half of people suffered from anxiety, depression, or PTSD (symptoms of post-traumatic stress) . More than 10% of medical staff felt helpless, desperate, tried to self-harm and had suicidal thoughts.
Researchers said that medical staff in the ICU are under great pressure and are often exposed to high-risk environments. They are also often faced with the continuous death of COVID-19 patients due to the shortage of personnel and equipment. This severe psychological pressure has greatly damaged their work motivation and has deeply affected their quality of life.
in the country, the epidemic has also had a profound impact on people's mental health.
The new crown epidemic swept the world, and under this situation, everyone is under pressure from a different new crown epidemic.
Professor Lu Lin analyzed the results of online random inspections of more than 50,000 people and found that during the COVID-19 pandemic, children and adolescents will be more affected by the epidemic.
Due to long online classes, teenagers lose opportunities such as outdoor sports and face-to-face communication among peers, which will have a profound impact on the future development of teenagers.
Under the epidemic, many articles have also written about countermeasures on how to relieve psychological stress. Just do exercise, listen to music, plant green plants, etc., just follow your preferences.
Whether it is coexistence on the verge of flatness or clearance of epidemic prevention, the new crown epidemic is inevitably affecting our lives. No matter where people on the earth cannot escape the various harms this epidemic has to our psychological and life. What we can do is to regulate our own lives, protect our bodies, and maintain our happy mood.
