Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

It is my pleasure to invite you to publish your work in the Special Issue titled: “Public Mental Health Crisis during SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic—Part 2”.

There are many reports of mental health problems increasing during the Sars-Cov-2 pandemic. This could be due to many different reasons, as mental health is the result of complex interplay between risk and protective factors, both at the individual and interpersonal and societal levels. Many specific groups are more at risk, such as adolescents, young adults, women, and the elderly.

This Special Issue will, therefore, examine the various factors that contribute to specific at-risk groups or populations and provide data about the prevalence changes during this period. The Special Issue will also evaluate preventive public mental health and health approaches or other interventions that serve the public good. This Special Issue will also allow us to reflect on preparedness and resilience to better manage future crisis situations.

As the data on the Sars-Cov-2 pandemic are still relevant, we wish to continue with this Special Issue. Recently published articles show long-term mental health, social, and other consequences of pandemics. We wish to collate new research to form the second edition of this Special Issue.

Dr. Vita Poštuvan
Guest Editor
