Maintaining Mental Health during COVID-19 Pandemic: A Clinical Approach | Chapter 03 | Issues and Developments in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 Since ancient times, new diseases have always emerged and re-emerged, causing terror and confusion among the general people. Fears, concerns, and stressors are dominating communities around the world as a result of the present SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, which is threatening the entire human species. There is panic all across the world, and all media and channels have been addressing all kinds of hopelessness, such as the lack of appropriate treatment protocols, antiviral medications, and vaccines. Many institutions have been looking for a new ray of hope in the shape of new COVID-19 antiviral medicines and vaccines in the midst of these uncertainty. In the past, such pandemics had been faced by the humanities, and they had triumphed. Both humanity and sickness have long coexisted [1]. Various pandemics, such as influenza, plague, cholera, and other infectious diseases, have frightened humans at times, but they have always survived, won the war, learned a lesson, and grown better, stronger, and more creative as a result. Until effective antiviral medications and vaccines against COVID-19 are developed, the PSM team (Physical Distancing, Sanitization of Hands, Equipment, Surfaces, Masks) will continue to work against COVID-19 and will play a critical role in slowing the spread. This chapter's goals and objectives are to: 1. Assess the problem of mental health and other aspects of health during the COVID-19 epidemic. 2. To investigate alternative clinical approaches to combating the mental health problem during the COVID 19 epidemic.
