Brief summary: The mental health of the French population in response to covid-19 pandemic is of concern.

Health professionals are prone to more mental disorders due to their direct exposure to the pandemic consequences. Indeed, compared to general population, health care workers face enormous in the current health situation, especially those who may be in contact with suspected or confirmed cases (risk of infection, inadequate protection, loss of control, lack of experience in managing the diseases, overwork, stigma, lack of support). Thus, it seems interesting to describe the psychological state of hospital interns during this pandemic.
