By creating acute respiratory syndrome, the virus is highly contagious and spreads fast so that 392802 are dead so far due to the virus in the world. Total number of deaths and diagnosed cases in the east Mediterranean region are 605026 and 14024 respectively. In Iran, 167156 cases and 8134 deaths have been recorded o far, which places Iran in 10th position in the world in terms of the spread of COVID 19 [1]. COVID 19 virus can be found in pulmonary secretion lavage, blood, and feces of the patients, which indicate the infection transmission paths [2]. According to studies, the main transmission path of the disease is through respiratory droplets (from the nose and mouth) and direct contact with contaminated surfaces. Incubation period of the disease ranges from 1 – 14 days, and mostly between 3-7 days [3]. Mean age of the patients ranges from 47-59 years and the prevalence in women is 41-9-45.7% [4]. The symptoms are mostly fever, cough, and tiredness, and the course of disease in most of the patients is like that of influenza. A few of the patients experience respiratory distress and respiratory agony (through non-treatable metabolic acidosis, septic shock, and coagulation disorder) that lead to death [5]. All these highlight the risk to care-givers of COVID 19 patients [6]. The pandemic nature of the disease and its high mortality and transferability are the factors that make the disease a great concern for the public [7]. Studies have been carried out about the effects of this disease on mental health of care-givers.
