Abstract：
The mental health burden of COVID-19 and associated quarantine can be enormous for the elderly. Being at higher risk for serious illnesses results in them being further isolated at a time of prolonged social distancing. In the following suicide-attempt cases, we examine the effects of quarantine and a global pandemic that expose the elderly to increased risk for negative mental health outcomes. Examining defense mechanisms and the effects of quarantine may help healthcare professionals better identify individuals at higher risk during times of crises that warrant isolation and quarantine, and provide appropriate interventions.
摘要：
COVID-19和相关隔离对老年人的心理健康负担可能是巨大的。患严重疾病的风险更高，导致他们在长期的社会距离中被进一步隔离。在下列自杀未遂案件中,我们研究了隔离和全球大流行的影响，这些影响使老年人面临不良心理健康结果的风险增加。检查防御机制和隔离效果可以帮助医疗保健专业人员在需要隔离和隔离的危机时期更好地识别风险较高的个人，并提供适当的干预措施。
