This study presents nationally representative estimates of self-reported changes in alcohol and cannabis consumption since the onset of COVID-19 in Canada. We used data from the Survey on COVID-19 and Mental Health (collected from September to December 2020) to calculate the prevalence of self-reported change in alcohol and cannabis consumption. We found that 15.7% of respondents self-reported an increase in alcohol consumption and 5.4% in cannabis consumption since the start of the pandemic. Sociodemographic disparities were also observed, indicating that increased alcohol and cannabis consumption may be more prevalent among certain populations.
本研究提供了自加拿大新冠疫情爆发以来,关于自我报告的酒精和大麻消费变化的全国代表性估计数据。我们使用了新冠疫情与心理健康调查(于2020年9月至12月收集)的数据来计算自我报告的酒精和大麻消费变化的患病率。我们发现,自疫情开始以来,15.7%的受访者自我报告酒精消费量增加,5.4%的受访者自我报告大麻消费量增加。我们还观察到了社会人口统计学差异,这表明酒精和大麻消费的增加在某些人群中可能更为普遍。
