  • Anxiety and depression were both higher in COVID-19 patients at time of admission than in pneumonia patients or a healthy control group.  Anxiety and depression decreased in COVID-19 patients after one week of comprehensive psychological intervention.  
  • Understanding the psychological state of patients with pneumonia, especially patients with COVID-19 can help clinicians systematically identify patients vulnerable to psychological pain and provide targeted interventions.
