In the medical staff, access to social response systems (p=0. 02), considerable weight change (p=0. 019) and reluctance to perform daily activities (p=0. 001) were among the factors that had a significant relation with Stress score. For the general population, sex (p=0. 001), the presence of a high risk elderly person in the family (p=0. 001), having a fatal case due to COVID-19 in the family (p=0. 014), exacerbation of the underlying disease (p=0. 003), job closure (p=0. 007), etc had significant relations with Stress score. Conclusion: According to the findings of the present study, the level of Stress in the study population was mild, but the psychological effects of coronavirus epidemics are undeniable.
