There has been little research on the psychological and social problems of people with coronavirus, some of which include mental wellbeing (Shaw, 2020), anxiety and sleep quality (Liu, Chen, Wu, Lin, Wang & Pan, 2020).
According to people with new Coronavirus, physical health was hurt and person physically are situated in adverse conditions and experience negative motions and reduced social connections, so it is predicted that other dimensions of health, such as psychological and social health, will be defected and infected persons have unfortunate consequences in psychological and mental health.
