COVID-19 has changed education for learners of all ages. Preliminary data project educational losses at many levels and verify the increased anxiety and depression associated with the changes, but there are not yet data on long-term outcomes.

The medical profession and other professions that teach by incrementally graduated internships are also severely affected and have had to make drastic changes.
