Comments by Ana Raquel Matos, Ana Teixeira de Melo and João Arriscado Nunes (CES)
Eleventh session of the «Deconfined Talks» seminar series. Much has been said about the epidemic of fear, anxiety and depression, alongside the Covid-19 epidemic. However, people with previous mental health issues are forgotten. This seminar addresses the impact of the epidemic and the confinement on people living with a diagnosis of mental illness, and discusses the policy, health and patient and caregiver associations' responses.
The open access «Deconfined Talks» seminars focus on the pandemic, its implications on the multiple dimensions that concern the CES community, among others topics currently worth discussing.
