The international organization ‘Save the Children’ says that the lockdown caused by the Covid epidemic has increased the trauma of children. The announcement was made in a press release issued by the organization on the occasion of World Mental Health Day on October 10.
Save the Children, an international organization, found that 96 percent of children in countries where schools are closed have been diagnosed with depression and anxiety after a long lockdown.
The organization therefore urges governments to recognize the psychological and social support for mental health of children, adolescents and their rights. They also reminded the government of their inclusion of the service in the National Health Service.
