ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the mental health status and its influencing factors in people under COVID-19 quarantine.Methods:A total of 130 people under quarantine in a centralized isolation site in Beijing from October 21 2021 to November 12 2021 were included in the study. The demographic data were collected, and the self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) were used for evaluation of mental health status.Results:One hundred and eleven people completed the survey; there were 10 people with anxiety (9.0%) and 34 people with depression (30.6%) among the study subjects. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the number of physical diseases ≥2 was the independent risk factor for anxiety ( OR=119.76,95% CI 5.31-2 702.08, P=0.003) and depression ( OR=41.41,95% CI6.06- 282.75, P<0.001). Conclusions:The incidence of psychological problems among people under COVID-19 quarantine is relatively high, particularly for people with multiple physical diseases, it is necessary to carry out early intervention for vulnerable people in centralized isolation sites.
