?This study aimed to the psychological distress and the associated predictor factors of the 2019 corona-virus disease (COVID-19) survivors in early recovery stage across ages in Shenzhen, China.?The main finding of this study is that the occurrence rate of psychological distress among COVID-19 survivors in early convalescence is dramatically high, with 39(31.0%), 28 (22.2%), and 48(38.1%) of the survivors meeting the clinically diagnosis criteria of stress response, anxiety and depressive mood, respectively. Post-infection physical discomforts and the presence of family members or relatives being infected are significantly associated with more symptoms of stress response, anxiety, and depression. Good social support and retirement were inversely associated with stress response. Female survivors reported more severe stress response symptoms than males. The survivors aged 60 and above experienced fewer stress response symptoms, fewer emotional symptoms of depression and fewer anxiety symptoms than survivors of other ages.?The finding of this study highlights the need to pay special attention to the mental state of COVID-19 survivors. Screening for psychological distress regularly for timely intervention is recommended to all COVID survivors both under quarantine and after quarantine. The predictors indicated by the current study may help to identify those at-high-risk. The current study also contributes to the geriatric psychiatry by indicating the older survivors suffered less emotional reactivity and fewer stress symptoms and anxiety symptoms from infectious diseases than the younger adults.
