Pandemic fatigue

Pandemic fatigue is understood as a natural and expected reaction to sustained and unresolved adversity^[1] in people's everyday life. Those affected show symptoms of feeling burnt out and tired, while also expressing feelings of demotivation to engage in protection behaviors and seek COVID-19 related information as complacency, alienation and hopelessness.^[2]
