Résumé
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has had negative consequences on the mental health of the population, which has been documented. Marginalized groups, that are at risk of poor mental health overall, have been particularly impacted. Objective: The purpose of this review is to describe the mental health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on marginalized group (that is persons who are socioeconomically disadvantaged, migrants and members of ethno-racial minorities, experience homelessness) and identified interventions which could be well-suited to prevent and address mental health difficulties. Methods: We conducted a scoping review of systematic reviews on mental health difficulties since the beginning of the COVID-19 epidemic and appropriate interventions among marginalized groups published from January 1 st 2020 up to May 2, 2022, using Google Scholar and PubMed (MEDLINE). Results: Among 792 studies on mental health difficulties among members of marginalized groups identified by keywords, 17 studies met our eligibility criteria. 12 systematic reviews examining mental health difficulties in one or several marginalized groups during the COVID-19 pandemic and 5 systematic reviews on interventions that can mitigate the mental health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic were retained in our scoping review. Conclusion: The mental health of marginalized groups was severely affected during the COVID-19 pandemic. Most frequently reported mental health difficulties included symptoms of anxiety and depression. Additionally, there are interventions that appear effective and well-suited for marginalized populations, which should be disseminated on a large scale to mitigate the psychiatric burden in these groups and at the population level.
