COVID-19 Pandemic, Social Isolation, and Online Gaming Addiction: Evidence From Two Case Reports
In the background of COVID-19 restrictions, online games have positioned themselves as activities which promote adherence to precautionary measures, while allowing users to socially interact and entertain themselves. Emerging evidence suggest increase in viewership as well as gaming activity throughout the world. However, such rapid increase in initiation of gaming activities also puts vulnerable population at risk of developing problematic use and addiction. We provide 2 real world examples of how pandemic-related changes can contribute toward gaming disorder in those with previously recreational or minimal Internet gaming. Public health policymakers need to be mindful of potential fallout of gaming addiction secondary to increased changes brought by the pandemic.
