ABSTRACT
During a pandemic, particularly a pandemic resulting in a quarantine, child abuse is likely to increase because of added stressors to a family, the isolation of children with their offenders, reduced interaction with mandated reporters, and the elimination or reduction of critical services. Using the COVID-19 pandemic as an illustration, the authors propose numerous recommendations to assist multidisciplinary teams (MDTs) responding to child abuse during a pandemic.
