Mental Health Crisis Among US Children Existed Before COVID-19 Pandemic, Surgeon General Points Out

The New York Times (3/23, Tingley) reports on the children’s mental-health crisis in the US. According to the Times, “it would be easy to blame the pandemic for changes in mental health that have been observed since March 2020,” but last year, “when the surgeon general noted a ‘mental-health crisis’ among young people, he made clear that rising numbers of children and young adults were struggling with anxiety and depression before Covid-19.”
