Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to synthesize and analyze existing evidence on depressive symptoms, emotional exhaustion, and psychological trauma symptoms in frontline healthcare workers during the COVID-19 outbreak. Using and replicating data from BMA, CPHA, GMU/CCCC, GWI, Harvard Medical School, ICF, ICFJ, Nursing Times, Pew Research Center, Potloc, TCDJ/Columbia University, UNC School of Medicine, UPMC, and YPCCC, we performed analyses and made estimates regarding whether COVID-19 healthcare personnel are at an elevated risk for developing stress-related psychiatric disorders. Descriptive statistics of compiled data from the completed surveys were calculated when appropriate.
