2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）将对公共卫生产生持久影响。除了COVID-19感染的直接影响外，物理距离和隔离干预对健康也有间接影响。虽然有必要，但控制COVID-19传播的物理距离干预措施可能对阿片类药物使用障碍患者产生多重影响，包括对心理健康的影响，导致更多的物质使用，药物供应的可用性，人们使用药物的方式，寻求治疗的行为，以及保持护理。COVID-19将在多大程度上影响阿片类药物流行，以及我们讨论的可能机制是重要的监测。我们采用模拟建模来证明物理距离对过量死亡率的潜在影响。
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) will have a lasting impact on public health. In addition to the direct effects of COVID-19 infection, physical distancing and quarantine interventions have indirect effects on health. While necessary, physical distancing interventions to control the spread of COVID-19 could have multiple impacts on people living with opioid use disorder, including impacts on mental health that lead to greater substance use, the availability of drug supply, the ways that people use drugs, treatment-seeking behaviors, and retention in care. The degree to which COVID-19 will impact the opioid epidemic and through which of the possible mechanisms that we discuss is important to monitor. We employed simulation modeling to demonstrate the potential impact of physical distancing on overdose mortality.
