“…Our study, performed two months after the first SARS-CoV-2 outbreak in the Île-de-France region, shows 32% anxiety and 16% depression within the hospital staff. These percentages are much lower than the 45 to 55% anxiety and 25 to 60% depression observed in previous international reports involving the HAD scale, which were performed at the peak of the epidemic in China and Brazil [16] , [17] , [18] ; it bears mentioning that these reports were based on a lower HAD scale cut-off value (8 points) and included “suspected” anxiety or depressive disorders. When compared to the 2 French studies using the same HAD scale cut-off value as ours (11 points), which disclosed 14.6% and 19% anxiety, and 12% and 9% depression among radiologists and ICU healthcare workers respectively [5] , [6] , the psychological impact in our population is slightly higher than expected.…”

“…Diante da ocorrência desse fenômeno característico e frequente em pandemias, implica problematizar acerca do lugar que a morte ocupa para os homens que, no geral, demonstram em outros contextos se afastar dos serviços de saúde pelo receio do desconhecido, do adoecimento e do risco da morte, fortemente relacionado ao medo da contaminação e da vulnerabilização da harmonia e integridade familiar (18) . Trabalhar o sentido e o significado da morte de maneira ampliada em ações de saúde junto ao público masculino pode constituir importante estratégia terapêutica de promoção do bem-estar psicológico, mini-mizando, também, o estresse (7,17) .…”
