Description

There is an increasing concern about a range of wider impacts of the pandemic response. Among these is the impact on problematic substance use. Feelings of isolation, stress and anxiety, lack of a regular schedule, boredom and limited available or accessible services for people who use substances may impact harms. Deaths, hospitalizations and visits to the emergency department are examples of harms.
