The psychologically impact of COVID-19

FRANCISTOWN: Mmegi spoke to some of the local social workers to get their expert opinions on the psychological impact of coronavirus on the people during the pandemic, after 28 days of practising extreme social distancing and recording 23 positive cases with one death.

In an interview with Dr. Kgomotso Jongman a practising social worker and academic who specialises in family welfare issues said that the feelings of fatigue that people are currently experiencing are more likely to be related to the mental workload associated with Covid-19 rather than the physical burden.
