Changes in rural China’s caregiver outcomes, behaviours, and health services utilisation following the COVID-19 pandemic: an observational study
Our findings suggest that many aspects of CCH in rural China were similar or improved during the early pandemic lockdowns. These data highlight the importance of promoting targeted public health interventions, such as mental health support initiatives, accessible perinatal care options, and family-centred education campaigns, in under-resourced communities and during future healthcare crises.
