ABSTRACT. Based on an in-depth survey of the literature, the purpose of the paper is to explore post-traumatic stress disorder, extreme anxiety, and depressive symptoms in frontline healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using and replicating data from ACHA, BMA, CMA, Commonwealth Fund, GWI, Harvard Medical School, HMN, IASC, MHA, Rek et al. (2020), Statista, and UNC School of Medicine, we performed analyses and made estimates regarding the psychological stress, anxiety and depression levels of frontline healthcare workers during the COVID-19 epidemic. Descriptive statistics of compiled data from the completed surveys were calculated when appropriate.
