SEATTLE, April 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Sleep Foundation (sleepfoundation.org) has released an article series, COVID-19 and Sleep: an Ongoing Concern, which explores how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the waking and sleeping hours of the global population.

Within the series, Sleep Foundation examines the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on sleep in:

Recommendations for better sleep during the pandemic, Sleep Guidelines During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Vaccination information and how sleep plays a part in immunity with COVID-19 Vaccine: Sleep, Sickness, and Immunity
An M.D./Ph.D. live discussion, COVID-19 and Sleep Roundtable
The trending topic of "coronasomnia" in Coronasomnia : Definition, Symptoms, and Solutions.

Each article has been developed with the most recent information and expert-reviewed, plus consistently updated using any new data that are shared by both government agencies as well as subject-matter experts.

Elise Chahine, Editor-in-Chief of Sleep Foundation, says, "We are still not free of the COVID-19 pandemic, which is having a major impact on sleep habits and hygiene, demonstrated by the approximately 40% of Americans who reported sleep issues since the beginning of the pandemic—enter 'coronasomnia'. With the global rollout of vaccinations—more than 7.79 billion administered worldwide—plus new data emerging from infection-rate spikes and lulls, we believe it is our responsibility to keep our readers abreast of the latest findings from researchers and government organizations."
