Summary
This study aims to understand the mental health of migrant workers diagnosed with COVID-19 or quarantined in dormitories during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Description
Worldwide, there are an estimated 164 million migrant workers. Although studies have documented how workers have an increased risk of adverse health outcomes, little is known about their vulnerability during a health crisis.
In the current COVID-19 outbreak, nearly 30,000 migrant workers have been infected with SARS-CoV-2 in Singapore. This represents 9 in 10 of the local cases, and 25 dormitories have been gazetted to contain the spread of the virus. Correspondingly, these measures have placed a spotlight on the well-being of migrant workers.
In this research protocol, the investigators propose to administer a survey to understand the mental health of migrant workers: (1) diagnosed with COVID-19 (housed in NUS or Expo), and (2) quarantined in dormitories. This will allow the investigators to capture the base rate of depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms in the population, and will also help to identify risk factors of psychological distress within this population.
