Cover Story: The pandemic was predicted to bring significant mental health consequences. We hypothesized that patients hospitalized for COVID during the first wave would experience significant emotional burdens (depression, PSTD, and anxiety), and to test this, we designed a screening system to detect psychopathology in patients. As a result of this, we began a telepsychiatry initiative to rapidly provide mental health support. Our study's most important finding was the high level of psychopathology in patients with no history of mental health problems. We postulate that medical admission during the first six months of the pandemic was a significant stressor leading to high levels of psychopathology in patients with COVID-19, evidencing the onset of mental disorders due to this illness in 2020.
