Relationship Between Social Status and Use of Healthcare Services During the Confinement Period Linked to the COVID-19 Epidemic

Completed
Conditions
Covid-19
Registration Number
NCT04703777
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Strasbourg, France
Brief Summary

Epidemics have always affected the most disadvantaged social categories more intensely. This social inequality is expressed in the use of care and emergencies: greater frequency but also greater seriousness. Our hypothesis is that, during a period of confinement, the most disadvantaged populations are more affected by the COVID-19 infection than the rest of the population. The number of remedies is greater, as is the severity of the forms of infection.
