Session Description
Since 2020, COVID pandemic has created unprecedented impact on World’s mental health. COVID infection has been associated with increased risks of psychiatric and neurological complications, even after resolution of viral infection. The policies to prevent uncontrollable disease spread has far reaching psychosocial consequences. With variations in community COVID spread, government policies on infection control and background social economic atmosphere, the WPA collaborating centers will share their views from the unique situations in their region. We hope that a collective wisdom will help to unfold the roadmap for preparation of mental health interventions in the post-COVID era.
