More people than usual called Thailand’s Mental Health Department’s (MHD) hotline in March and April, seeking advice about stress, Deputy Public Health Minister Sathit Pitutecha said today.

 

In January and February, the hotline service received 20 to 40 calls a month, but in March the number of calls went up to 600 and there  have been 315 so far in April, increases which coincide with the spread of COVID-19, he added.

 

51.85% of the callers were extremely stressed and most of them were women. 6.57% were seeking basic information about the virus and 37.99% were people with a history of psychological problems.

It's  the hot season, it makes you go crazier, I for one am more  ratty when its  this  hot. If the case  numbers are so low here why are the front line workers having problems? try Italy,America or the UK to do this job.
