Participation Assignment 6 Answer
Belluck, Pam. (2021 March 23). First COVID, then psychosis: The most terrifying thing I’ve ever experienced. Retrieved from https://www.nytimes.com/2021/03/22/health/covid-psychosis.html (Links to an external site.).
I find this article very relevant because it details the psychosis experienced by COVID-19 patients. It is almost like schizophrenia because the patients do not know how time has passed as if they have lost their sense of self, and have no recollection of what has happened or what they have done during those moments.
