ABSTRACT
The outbreak of Corona virus (COVID-19) in Wuhan, China, which began in December 2019, evolved to become a global pandemic. Also poses a serious threat to the psychological well-being of individuals and has resulted in significant behavioral changes. The severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic represents an extraordinary medical challenge that has already had massive economic and societal impacts. In contrast to the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) corona virus outbreaks, every respiratory physician and intensives are likely to encounter patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 and need a good understanding of the management of the associated disease, COVID-19. We are facing the first wave of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, but the infectivity of the virus and the lack of population immunity suggest future waves are possible. We aimed to describe the psychological, behavioral, interpersonal effect & clinical implications for health system.
