The association between household food insecurity and healthcare costs among Canadian children
CONCLUSION: Even after adjusting for measurable social determinants of health, household food insecurity was associated with higher public-payer health services costs and utilization among children and youth. Efforts to mitigate food insecurity could lessen child healthcare needs, as well as associated costs to our healthcare systems.PMID:37610612 | DOI:10.17269/s41997-023-00812-2 (Source: Canadian Journal of Public Health)

Eviction filings during bans on enforcement throughout the COVID-19 pandemic: an interrupted time series analysis
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that while the first ban on eviction enforcement appeared to substantially reduce filing rates, subsequent bans were less effective and none of them eliminated eviction filings altogether. Enacting upstream policies that tackle the root causes of displacement would better equip jurisdictions during future public health emergencies.PMID:37581748 | DOI:10.17269/s41997-023-00813-1 (Source: Canadian Journal of Public Health)

Addressing overdose risks and fatalities in public bathrooms: insights from the development of a Safer Bathroom Toolkit in British Columbia, Canada
Can J Public Health. 2023 Aug 15. doi: 10.17269/s41997-023-00810-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSETTING: In British Columbia (BC), over 11,000 people have died of an overdose since 2016. Recently, an all-party standing committee on health tabled a report identifying several gaps in BC's overdose response. Chief among these is the inequitable distribution of supervised consumption and overdose prevention services across BC and barriers to accessing services that are currently available. In this context, public bathrooms continue to act as consumption spaces and contribute to overdose-related risks and fatalities.INTERVENT...
