Studies on mental health undertaken during the pandemic have revealed rising rates of suicidality and indications of acute stress and depression. The national laws on travel and quarantine have made attending these routine checkups harder and less practicable. The fast use of telehealth during the epidemic has accelerated the need to address the moral difficulties of using electronic treatments for mental illness. However, the urgent need for socially detached mental health care should not be used to weaken regulations and practices that safeguard individuals from receiving inadequate mental health care or having their personal information misused, raising several ethical concerns for the professionals providing these services. This study aims to provide a theoretical analysis of some of the pressing ethical concerns surrounding online healthcare delivery during COVID-19, which include privacy and data protection, safety and accountability, and access and fairness.
