Will COVID-19 Cause a Mental Health Crisis?

The COVID-19 pandemic itself and measures taken to mitigate its spread has upended our lives for the past few months, and is expected to continue to impact us for months to come. So what impact will it have on our mental and emotional well-being? How will we cope (and change) in the long-run? We speak to clinical psychologist, Dr Joel Low.
