CDC Reports COVID-19 Is Eroding Americans’ Mental Health
It shouldn’t be a surprise that a pandemic that has killed over 165,000 Americans, isolated tens of millions more, and left over 50 million unemployed would also result in a sweeping mental-health crisis. Such a prospect was reaffirmed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Thursday, when the agency released a new survey showing that almost 41 percent of respondents are grappling with mental-health challenges related to the pandemic and its economic and social effects.
