For those who went to bed after 24:00 before, it increased from 19.9% to 56.1%.In addition, sleep quality as assessed by subjective and JSS significantly deteriorated after the COVID-19 pandemic. Excessive daytime sleepiness increased. Those with ESS>10 before COVID-19 were 3.9%, post- COVID-19 ESS>10 14.1% (p<0.001).
