Abstract

Researchers at Åbo Akademi University are taking part in helping to understand the Covid19 pandemic and in mitigating its consequences in society. We are especially concerned about how the epidemic affects vulnerable individuals and creates new vulnerabilities. Research efforts are targeted towards preventing depression and anxiety caused by the virus in patients who have recovered from the infection.
