    However, though important as an indicator, this was not evaluated in this study, and may be considered a limitation of the study. Our study faced many challenges regarding the structured questionnaires, reporting and resources. Limitations response rates, correlation with fear and psychological issues, and completion of the questionnaire for COVID-19 positive. We recommend future studies to include information on limitation of movement, isolation and insomnia as it relates to psychological illness, as well as information regarding neurological signs and symptoms of patients and relationship to cognition and fear.
