ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 pandemic has been a catalyst for more accessible abortion care in Canada, even as other countries report increasing barriers to the service. But according to a study of more than 300 Canadian abortion providers published in Family Practice, fewer than one in five had any experience providing medical abortions by telemedicine before the pandemic. By Jan 2021, however, nearly nine in 10 reported providing some or all aspects of abortion care virtually--from counseling and prescribing to follow up and emergency care. According to Madeleine Ennis and coauthors, most providers reported maintaining or increasing access to abortion while making a "seamless switch" to virtual care, except in Quebec, where restrictions on mifepristone remained a barrier.
