Chief Physician of the Pskov Regional Infectious Diseases Hospital Anastasia Povtoreiko warned of possible mental disorders in patients with COVID-19. She wrote about this in her Instagram -account.
According to the Russian doctor, at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, serious changes in behavioral reactions were recorded in infected patients. However, then experts associated this phenomenon mainly with fear of an unknown disease and an oppressive situation in society.
A specialist, referring to specialists from the University of Oxford, said that mental disorders are detected in every fifth patient who has had coronavirus. However, in some cases, they are first diagnosed after infection with COVID-19.
