CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - Researchers are noticing a link between COVID-19 survivors and mental health issues like anxiety.
According to a new study, one in three people who survive the virus is diagnosed with a neurological or psychiatric condition within six months.
“When the pandemic first hit people were experiencing a lot of anxiety because their routine had to change pretty drastically,” Novant Health psychotherapist Soltana Nosrati said.
