The objective of this study was to assess psychosocial effects of COVID-19 among adolescents living with HIV (ALHIV) in Kenya and to assess the feasibility of conducting behavioral surveys by phone. We adapted our protocol to administer telephone rather than in-person follow-up surveys and included questions about COVID-19. The majority of participants (99%) reported having heard of COVID-19; 23% reported no longer being able to go outside, 17% reported that they could no longer go to their regular clinic for medical care, and 3% reported that they could no longer get medication refills. PHQ-9 screening identified 9% (n = 45) with mild depression symptoms, and 1% (n = 3) with moderate-to-severe depression symptoms. Young adults 20-24 years old had more mild to severe depressive symptoms than the younger age groups (p < 0.001). Offering remote peer-support or mental health care, continuing to offer differentiated care services, and considering financial support will support the health and well-being of ALHIV.

COVID-19 大流行对肯尼亚西部 HIV 感染青年的社会心理影响。

本研究的目的是评估 COVID-19 对肯尼亚 HIV 感染青少年 (ALHIV) 的心理社会影响,并评估通过电话进行行为调查的可行性。我们调整了我们的协议来管理电话而不是面对面的后续调查,并包括有关 COVID-19 的问题。大多数参与者 (99%) 报告说听说过 COVID-19;23% 的人表示无法再外出,17% 的人表示他们无法再去正规诊所接受医疗护理,3% 的人表示他们无法再获得药物补充。PHQ-9 筛查确定了 9% (n = 45) 有轻度抑郁症状,1% (n = 3) 有中度至重度抑郁症状。20-24 岁的年轻人比年轻年龄组有更多轻度到重度的抑郁症状(p < 0.001)。
