“…The spread of COVID-19, along with the measures taken to control the pandemic and the need to make lifestyle changes, have contributed to increased levels of stress and anxiety and negatively affected the mental health of people around the world (O’Connor et al, 2020 ; World Health Organization, 2020 ). Studies conducted in the recent months in the countries affected by the pandemic have noted the role of the unpredictability and uncertainty of the situation, the severity of the disease, as well as misinformation and social isolation in the deterioration of the mental and the emotional state and in the increase of fears and phobias related to health (Asmundson & Taylor, 2020 ; Lima et al, 2020 ; Zandifar & Badrfam, 2020 ).…”

Amid the spread of COVID-19, a study of mental health in university students from different regions of Russia (n = 3057) was undertaken during the period from April 9 to April 20, 2020. The results were compared to studies conducted earlier within a large-scale research project examining student mental health. Mental health indicators were analyzed during three different periods: long before the onset of the pandemic (period 1); in the early days of the spread of COVID-19 in Russia, though prior to the implementation of containment measures (period 2); during tough measures to contain the first wave of the pandemic (period 3). The comparison of indicators showed no differences in the levels of psychological wellbeing (F = 0.918; p = .4), significantly lower levels of depression, anxiety and stress during the period 1 compared to the periods 2 and 3 (p \ .001), and the highest levels of anxiety and stress during the period 2. We also established a higher increase in the levels of depression (F = 6.883; p = .001), anxiety (F = 11.868; p \ .001) and stress (F = 10.384; p \ .001) in young men compared to the changes in the same indicators in young women during the pandemic. However, both before and during the pandemic, these indicators showed better mental health in young men than in young women. Thus, when studying the impact of the pandemic on students' mental health, it is crucial to take into account the possible dynamics of their mental state within relatively short periods of time and to pay particular attention to gender differences.

“…It has created a negative supply shock, in which manufacturing productive activity slowed down due to global supply chain disruptions and closures of factories (2) . Thus, the first factor in creating fear during the Covid-19 pandemic is due to the economic crisis (1) . Furthermore, in addition to the fear of contracting the disease, Covid-19 has caused insecurity in all aspects of life, from the collective to the individual perspective, from the daily functioning of society to changes in interpersonal relationships (3) .…”
