TELUS Talks Podcast: The psychology of a pandemic with Dr. Steven Taylor

Nov 3, 2020

Psychologist and author Dr. Steven Taylor has been studying the psychological footprint of pandemics and sees strong parallels between the Spanish flu from 100 years ago and COVID-19 today. Dr. Taylor shares his insights on the problematic behaviours and mental health challenges we’re seeing now and could see in the future, but he also outlines the promise of post-traumatic growth, which could mean many of us come through this pandemic feeling a greater sense of resilience.
