- Abstract
Reduction in paediatric emergency visits during the COVID-19 pandemic in a region with open preschools and schools The same trend was observed when specifically assessing the visits for LRTI (cumulative incidence 0.24% in 2020 versus 0.57% I p i <0.001) and gastroenteritis (cumulative incidence 0.26% in 2020 versus 0.87%, I p i <0.001) whereas the number of UTI visits was slightly increased in 2020 as compared to the previous two years (0.22% versus 0.20%, I p i =0.01). On 11 March 2020, the novel coronavirus disease COVID-19 was declared a pandemic.
