This short term digitally distributed longitudinal study evaluated impacts of the Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) pandemic on college students from Southern California. A total number of three hundred and eighteen [n=318] individuals were included in the study of which 154 or 48% were females, n=161 or 51% males and n=3 or 0.1% were individuals who refused to provide that information. The study was based on two separate data sets collected four months a part (Dec. 2020 and April 2021) from students of which n= 154 and n=164 were 1st and 2nd cohort respectfully. From all individuals surveyed n=253 or 80% were 26 years of age or younger at the time. Troubling pattern observed was a decline in overall satisfaction and wellbeing in all parameters analyzed. Some of the most concerning were an increase in stress from 74% to 77% while abilities to perform simple tasks declined from 67% to 55% from the first to the second cohort of students surveyed in that order. Such results, which were measured in two separate instances and only four months, apart suggest that distressed psychosomatic equilibriums need to be urgently addressed if we are to come out of the pandemic with physically and emotionally healthy population of young adults.
