CHAVEZ, Andrés Joaquín Guarnizo  y  HEREDIA, Nathaly Alejandra Romero. Social determinants and mental health in the management of grief in COVID-19 times. Medisur [online]. 2021, vol.19, n.5, pp. 895-897.  Epub 30-Oct-2021. ISSN 1727-897X.

The COVID-19 pandemic has undoubtedly left deep marks on individual and collective mental health. Although SARS-Cov2 is certainly a disease that does not discriminate age, sex, social status, economic class, etc., it has been shown that certain social determinants highly influence their risk of mortality. Therefore, these deaths will not be seen in the same way by all people, but will depend on the social context in which they exist. Managing the normal grieving process after a loss is never easy, much less if the current health emergency and the psychosocial problems that it entails are involved.

Palabras clave : mental health; social determinants of health; bereavement; grief; COVID-19.
