Abstract

The postcovid era augmented with armed conflict in Eastern Europe brings new waves of social pathology, including postcovid syndrome, where the commonest signs are depression, anxiosity‚ followed by alcohol, tobacco, or other substance use. Two cohorts of clients of social work: one among migrants and refugees (98 clients); 11 homeless have been studied on development of both symptomes related to stress (post trauma stress syndrome after armed conflict, and chronic stress of homelesness and isolation). Only one case of HIV and HepC in both groups have been recorded, both on ARV or HCV treatment. Tobacco use has been increased in the group of posttrauma stress syndrome related to Group I (armed conflict refugees), but alcohol or substance use were sporadic and exceptional both before and after admission in the 3m follow up.
