The research assess COVID-19 obsession among hospital workers in Jos-South local government area of Plateau State Nigeria. A total of 162 hospital workers (82, 50.6% males and 80, 49.4% females) with mean age of 34.01 participated in this survey research. Four hypotheses were tested utilizing Chi-square at p = 0.05 level of significance, result revealed that older hospital workers had higher prevalence of COVID-19 obsession compared to younger hospital worker, χ2 = 6.139, df = 1, p = 0.013 (p < 0.05). The prevalence of COVID-19 obsession did not differ among hospital workers in terms of gender, χ2 = 0.009, df = 1, p = 0.924 (p >0.05). Furthermore, results revealed that hospital workers with tertiary education had higher prevalence of COVID-19 obsession compared to those with lower educational status, χ2 = 7.168, df = 3, p = 0.028 (p < 0.05). Finally, prevalence of COVID-19 obsession did not differ among hospital workers in terms of marital status, χ2 = 6.996, df = 3, p = 0.072 (> 0.050). The authors concluded that more attention should be given to hospital workers in terms of policy formulation being that they are at the forefront in the fight against COVID-19. Also, there is need for setting up of psychological service centres across hospitals in Nigeria which would go a long way in not just evaluating the mental health status of hospital workers in relation to COVID-19 but it will be beneficial to the general public in assessing psychology services easily.
