A Third of Americans Report Anxiety or Depression Symptoms During Pandemic
According to a recent Census Bureau survey, a third of American adults report symptoms of clinical anxiety or depression amid the coronavirus outbreak, which highlights the psychological toll the pandemic has had on the mental health of many individuals. Data shows that out of every 100 American adults, 34 show symptoms of anxiety, depression or both; 10 show symptoms of anxiety alone; and 4 show symptoms of depression alone.
The survey's findings indicate a significant jump since before the pandemic. For one question regarding depressed mood, for example, the percentage reporting such symptoms was double that found in a 2014 national survey. In response to the question "How often have you been bothered by feeling down, depressed, or hopeless?," 25 percent of adults said they had depressed symptoms before the pandemic (2013-2014), but now 50 percent of adults report having depressed symptoms at least for several days if not every day.

Leading Through Turbulent Times
by Noel Massie
Retired UPS Vice President of US Operations
Leading a group in any capacity is a big responsibility; more importantly it is one that was generally sought by the person in the role. During my 42 year career with UPS, I had the opportunity to lead many different size groups through many crises. It started in my first assignment with leading nine employees and ultimately ended as Vice President of U.S Operations leading over 200,000. Being in the logistics industry, these crises included earthquakes, hurricanes and attacks such as Sept. 9/11. However, this COVID-19 pandemic is like nothing we have seen as Americans.
