- The pandemic caused abrupt and important changes in the patterns of acute health care use among children and youth in Canada. In this session, the presenters will present data from a series of research studies that have explored these changes, including a focus of those populations at-risk of acute deterioration of their health status. They will discuss what we learned from these changes and how these lessons may inform mitigation strategies for future pandemics or health system disruptions.
