Covid-19 and the patients suffering from back pain

We've all been watching the Kovid-19 pandemic lately. It has a connection in all areas of our lives. I came across an interesting letter published in the prestigious journal Neurosurgery.

And what do they think are the reasons for this phenomenon? 1. Reduction of 'mild cases' caused by fear of coronavirus infection and
2. Changing the rhythm of livery and actually reducing the incidence of back pain

I do not know which of the two is true, but we will certainly use our experience from this period in understanding many other diseases.
