Primary Outcome Measures

General health questionnaire including questions about lifestyle, access to health services, comorbidities, mental health, alcohol and drugs consumption. Additional questions regarding more specific themes (Lyme disease, medical aid in dying, COVID-19, etc.) will be added or adapted yearly.
