Mental health consequences of long-term stays in refugee camps: preliminary evidence from Moria. BMC Public Health 21, 1290 (2021). https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-021-11301-xhttps://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-021-11301-xhttp://hdl.handle.net/11447/5624Ever since the implementation of the EU-Turkey deal, most refugees that enter Greece via sea are confined to the island on which they arrive until their asylum claims are adjudicated, where they generally reside in camps. Some of these camps have detention-like characteristics and dire living conditions, such as Moria camp on the island of Lesbos, Greece. Aid-organizations have stated that the situation in camp Moria deteriorates the mental health of its inhabitants and there is qualitative evidence to support this. This study explores the quantitative relationship between the incidence of acute mental health crises and the length of stay in the camp.enRefugeesCampGreeceContainmentMental healthCrisisArticle
