Salgın Psikolojisi-Bir Başa Çıkma Rehberi

Malaria, leprosy, plague, influenza, smallpox, tuberculosis, syphilis... Epidemics and diseases are not new in human history... However, today, people of the 21st century are going through a different experience, a trauma experience whose effects will emerge much later.

Humanity has made a great leap forward with the change in consumption habits, the development of technology and the introduction of the internet into human life. It has come a long way since the invention of the first steam engine.

So, has humans been able to keep up with this speed psychologically?

Are defense mechanisms, fight-flight responses, still functional in today's world? Has the human brain, behavior and thoughts been able to adapt the experiences it has gained over hundreds of thousands of years of evolution to today's world, or is it still trying to survive with extremely primitive and simple methods?
