Bidirectional Association Between COVID-19 and Mental Health Disorders: A Narrative Review
Background: Fear, anxiety, and stress are natural reactions of the human body to unpredictable and potentially threatening conditions. Currently, individuals are encountering Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic; it is caused by a virulent, partially unknown pathogen with high transmissibili...
