Highlights

The consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic are moving targets, making it hard to estimate the societal burden in terms of physical and mental health (Holmes et al, 2020)
The specific problems across countries will reflect their response to the pandemic with mental health problems including the effects of social isolation, loss followed by disrupted grief ceremonies, loss or disruption to vocational, economic or educational opportunities, fear of a second outbreak of COV‐ ID-19 and future post-corona mental health consequences (Holmes et al, 2020)
Mental health problems among health care workers is one example, and loneliness or relationship distress caused by social distancing is another example
