I transported a 34 yo male, happily married, father of 3 young children, no past medical (or psych) history with the exception of Covid 1 month prior. Pts family put out a missing person report and PD found him 1 state over. Car was wrecked and abandoned in the woods, he was butt naked 1 mile away and had burned an old church down to the ground because “god told him to”.
Now, I finally see why… they were calling it Covid induced psychosis.
