The COVID-19 pandemic has had many impacts on global health beyond those caused by the COVID-19 disease itself. It has led to a reduction in hospital visits for other reasons. There have been 38 per cent fewer hospital visits for heart attack symptoms in the United States and 40 per cent fewer in Spain. The head of cardiology at the University of Arizona said, "My worry is some of these people are dying at home because they're too scared to go to the hospital." There is also concern that people with strokes and appendicitis are not seeking timely treatment. Shortages of medical supplies have impacted people with various conditions.

| - The COVID-19 pandemic has had many impacts on global health beyond those caused by the COVID-19 disease itself. It has led to a reduction in hospital visits for other reasons. There have been 38 per cent fewer hospital visits for heart attack symptoms in the United States and 40 per cent fewer in Spain. The head of cardiology at the University of Arizona said, "My worry is some of these people are dying at home because they're too scared to go to the hospital." There is also concern that people with strokes and appendicitis are not seeking timely treatment. Shortages of medical supplies have impacted people with various conditions. In several countries there has been a marked reduction of spread of sexually transmitted infections, including HIV/AIDS, attributable to COVID-19 quarantines, social distancing measures, and recommendations to not engage in casual sex. Similarly, in some places, rates of transmission of influenza and other respiratory viruses significantly decreased during the pandemic. The pandemic has also negatively impacted mental health globally, including increased loneliness resulting from social distancing and depression and domestic violence from lockdowns. As of June 2020, 40% of U.S. adults were experiencing adverse mental health symptoms, with 11% having seriously considered to attempt suicide. The research data suggest that the pandemic has negative effects on both weight loss and food health monitoring but the effects were short lived results. Paying attention and taking measures to prevent mental health problems and post-traumatic stress syndrome, particularly in women, is already a need. (en)

En varios países ha habido una marcada reducción de la propagación de infecciones de transmisión sexual, incluido el VIH / SIDA, atribuible a las cuarentenas de COVID-19, las medidas de distanciamiento social y las recomendaciones de no tener relaciones sexuales casuales. De manera similar, en algunos lugares, las tasas de transmisión de la influenza y otros virus respiratorios disminuyeron significativamente durante la pandemia. La pandemia también ha tenido un impacto negativo en la salud mental a nivel mundial, incluido el aumento de la soledad resultante del distanciamiento social y la depresión y la violencia doméstica por los encierros. En junio de 2020, el 40% de los adultos estadounidenses experimentaban síntomas adversos de salud mental, y el 11% había considerado seriamente intentar suicidarse en el último mes. (es)
