Objectives  The aim of this study was to assess coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) anxiety and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms in the hospital staff, as well as to identify protective factors of COVID-19 anxiety once the coronavirus pandemic was announced in Poland.    Methods  90 healthcare workers from the hospital in Poland completed validated self-report questionnaires assessing self-efficacy, emotional control, and PTSD symptoms; a questionnaire assessing COVID-19 anxiety; and a socio-demographic questionnaire. A multiple linear regression was conducted to assess the effects of gender, being directly vs indirectly exposed to patients, and general self-efficacy on COVID-19 anxiety.    Results  The analysis showed that female ( β  = −0.271,  p  < 0.01) healthcare professionals indirectly exposed to patients ( β  = −0.336,  p  < 0.01) and those who reported lower levels of general self-efficacy ( β  = −0.295,  p  < 0.01) have a stronger tendency to experience COVID-19 anxiety [ R  2  = 0.301,  F (3,89) = 12.34,  p  < 0.01].    Conclusion  The findings show the importance of self-efficacy for dealing with COVID-19 anxiety. The internal coping strategies should be introduced to healthcare workers.
