PARIS, March 10 — Some have called it a “tsunami,” others a “mental health pandemic,” but Covid-19 might not have had such a significant impact on the general population.

Published in the British Medical Journal, this research is based, more specifically, on a comparison of general mental health and symptoms of anxiety and depression in the general population as of January 1, 2020, compared with a period from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2019. “This is consistent with evidence that women and female members of society have experienced a disproportionately greater burden from the pandemic,” the researchers note.

Based on an extensive meta-analysis, the study authors admit that it does not include enough data from low-income countries and children.
