- People with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) experience similar levels of distress, depression, and anxiety compared to healthy individuals, despite their heightened concerns related to COVID-19.
- The study involved 69 adult pwCF and matched healthy controls, using an online questionnaire to assess mental health and safety behaviors.
