The Spread of COVID19 in the Pakistan: Anxiety, Depression and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

Abstract

Abstract: The first to be detected in Wuhan, China, was COVID-19 recognized as a coronavirus disease at the end of 2019. The disorder is very infectious and has a steadily growing worldwide prevalence. Because of its global circulation, the World Health Organization (WHO) recognized the pandemic as is the normal practice in such pandemics, a lockout is normally forced into all public areas to restrict the transmission of the disease and to minimize the risk for new cases. However, health care providers are sadly left to contend with the many problems that occur as a consequence of this situation. The people in general take those action. The mean anxiety rate in general was 19.01 ± 9.2, 18.12 ± 10 and 20,12 ± 12.0. The number of participants with mild to extremely serious depression was 81 (72.3%); moderate to extremely severe anxiety is 96 (85.7%); and 101 (90.1%). moderate to intense stress levels were recorded. It is obvious that many neurological disorders such as anxiety, stress and depression impact a large number of health professionals. It is vital for government action to ensure the mental health of health care provider is controlled consistently and to try to reduce their burdens. A large number of Pakistani participants in this study experienced fear, fatigue, and depression. Approximately 89% of health care providers feared their families, while 80% feared that COVID19 might come on their own. This is a comparative figure for Wuhan, where only 50,4% of health care provider patients treated for COVID-19 were depressed, 44.6% had anxiety, 34% had insomnia, and a significant proportion had depression, anxiety, (560 [44.6 percent]), insomnia, and distress (899[71.5 percent]).
