COVID-19 is a highly contagious infectious disease caused by a new coronavirus, first time detected and reported in Wuhan, China that very soon became pandemic. In the recently passed outbreak, all the Iranian health systems were involved. Doctors with different specialties like sport medicine, surgery or gynecology were obliged to involve the covid-19 treatment. The hospitals were highly crowded and many of the “not well” patients were managed as outpatients. In this letter to the editor, we want to highlight the psychiatric side effect of routine management for covid-19.
