These are stressful and uncertain times. The evolving nature of the COVID-19 pandemic is very sudden and can be confusing. This may provoke anxiety for many people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those with pre-existing anxiety and other mental health conditions may be particularly at risk. Individuals and teams whose work bring them in contact with infected persons may experience stress and anxiety. Other groups at risk for increased stress include the elderly, those caring for sick or vulnerable persons, and those experiencing significant changes to work, travel, or family life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regardless of status or work function, we can anticipate that all of us will at some point experience some increased stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
