Oxford Study Finds 33% Likelihood For COVID Survivors Developing Mental Illness
National Pulse ^ | 01/27/2021 | Natalie Winters

Posted on 01/27/2021 7:12:08 AM PST by SeekAndFind

A new study out of Oxford University found that “the likelihood of a COVID-19 survivor developing a psychiatric or neurological illness within six months was 33.6 percent.”

What’s more, the study – “Six-month Neurological and Psychiatric Outcomes in 236,379 Survivors of COVID-19” – found that one in eight people who have recovered from the virus are diagnosed with their first psychiatric or neurological illness within six months of testing positive.

“The numbers rose to one in three when people with a previous history of psychiatric or neurological illnesses were included,” the New York Post added.

The study also found that one in nine patients were diagnosed with conditions including depression or stroke despite not having gone to a hospital while infected.

The study, which is awaiting peer review, used “electronic health records to evaluate hospitalized and non-hospitalized US patients with a confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis who recovered.”

Was it the virus? Or is it the lockdowns and isolation?

I’d bet the latter.

Let me guess...”only vaccines can save us from both Covid, and mental illness”

These elites are so predictable.

It prolly never occurred to them that incessant fear mongering, being locked down Indefinitely, and losing jobs could could affect mental health

1 out of 8 equals: 12.5%

In the United States, almost half of adults (46.4 percent) will experience a mental illness during their lifetime.

(with or without a virus strawman.)

Agree totally. I’m in Upstate and winter keeps me isolated since I’m retired. The matter of winter isolation comes up every year...cabin fever.

What about those who never got it but were cowering in their basement in fear?

They will also develop mental issues if they didnt have them already.

98% of people listening to Biden and his Lefty handlers will get depression and due to the million daily reminders to “Wear Masks” most will become suicidal.

Just about everything is a mental illness these days...it just helps them with creating statistics.

Think about it...the percentage is sooooo high, I'd guess that maybe 10% or less are truly mentally ill. The rest...we all have difficult problems to deal with at some point. We go for help...but that's not mentally ill.

OK, let’s say you’re in charge of the headlines, how should it be accurately phrased?

More likely caused by prolonged reduction of oxygen from wearing masks.

So may as well concentrate on psych meds instead of vaccine concoctions.

Mental illness isn’t a result of having the Communist Chinese Cooties, it’s a pre-existing condition brought on by the lockdowns, masking and “distancing” which, like communism/socialism, have failed every place they’ve been deliberately implemented by the various vile politicians and celebrity-obsessed unelected bureaucrats.
