Lifestyle behaviours during the COVID‐19 – time to connect 2020-05-12 .txt text/plain 1001 61 46 From public health and preventative care perspectives, there is a pressing need to provide individuals, communities and health agencies with information and interventions to maintain the healthiest possible lifestyle while in isolation. Of note, towards the end of the SARS epidemic, social support, mental health awareness and other lifestyles changes (exercise, more time for relaxation and restorative sleep) were all associated with decreased perceived stress and incidence of PTSD (13) . It is time that such interventions start to include lifestyle guidelines with the aim to translate evidence into public health policies. Observational data on how the general public and patients with psychiatric disorders actually deal with self-care, nutrition, physical activity or restorative sleep during confinement are lacking and represent a research gap. Such studies would provide the much-needed evidence to design interventions to prevent a new pandemic of psychiatric disorders and cardiometabolic comorbidities as proposed by the COVID-19 Snapshot Monitoring (COSMO) initiative (19) . ./cache/cord-309436-5qoo3a8i.txt ./txt/cord-309436-5qoo3a8i.txt
