Covid-19 infection and symptoms may be more common in people experiencing elevated psychological distress, according to a new study.
The research, published in Annals of Behavioural Medicine, examined the relationship between psychological factors and the risk of Covid-19 infection and the severity of symptoms.
The study enrolled 1 087 UK adults who completed surveys and self-reported incidence of Covid-19 infection and symptoms from the beginning of the pandemic until December 2020.
