While the latest data suggest that, on the whole, the population have coped well with the COVID pandemic in mental health terms, some groups suffered under it, severely in some cases, and may continue to do so: people who already had mental health issues, for instance, or some children and adolescents. So what lessons have been learnt? And how do matters stand in equal opportunities terms?
