الملخص EN

Neurological and psychiatric complications of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) appeared initially in case reports and case series.

The observed complications have stimulated further research addressing the mental health consequences of the COVID-19 epidemic.

The pathological mechanisms of these consequences have also been explored.

Initial studies were limited to patients treated in hospitals, but soon involved patients treated in the community.

The possibility of experiencing long lasting mental health difficulties after recovery from the COVID-19 virus has also been studied.

Research has also addressed the psychological impact of quarantine, the mental health of healthcare professionals during the COVID-19 epidemic, and the mental health status of the general population.
