Introduction: In the recent months, the world has been exposed to a serious and evolving threat called the Corona virus disease 2019. A virus that did not take more than a month to become a pandemic disease and it has infected the whole world with its contagion. The virus, which originated in the Chinese city of Wuhan, quickly infected millions of people around the world. As a result, borders were closed internationally, communications were reduced, and billions were quarantined in their homes. The most important strategies recommended by the World Health Organization and the centers for disease control and prevention are such as social distancing, personal hygiene, and disinfection. This situation led to a significant increase in demand for masks, gloves, alcohol, and disinfectants. However, excess in this area may cause various psychological disorders, including obsessive-compulsive disorder and hoarding, which need further attention and investigation.

Introduction: During the COVID-19 pandemic, although hospital staff cared for patients, they were recognized in the community as an asymptomatic carrier and people were afraid and anxious about them. To the extent thateven the families of hospital staff experienced this social stigma, and many people cut off contact with them. In addition to the stigma that medical staff received from people during the COVID-19 pandemic, many people were stigmatized and feared that as an asymptomatic carrier they would endanger the health of their families and those around them. For this reason, they tried to limit social communication and be more present at home and at work. Hospital staff were among the first to deal with the deadly virus and relinquish their physical health. Many nurses and physicians stay awake for long hours to save the lives of patients with COVID-19. Unfortunately, we have seen people fear and avoid the hospital staff, which has led to increased burnout and depression in the medical staff. For this purpose, it is necessary to take measures to socially motivate the medical staff of hospitals by the Ministry of Education and Health.
