2019冠状病毒病危机可能使大量妇女和夫妇无法获得基本的性健康和生殖健康保健。本研究说明分析了各可持续发展目标区域在避孕方法组合方面的差异，并采用特定方法使用率下降的假设，制作了一个说明性情景，说明COVID-19对避孕方法使用和现代方法满足的计划生育需求比例的潜在影响。据估计，到2020年，77%的育龄妇女（15-49岁）的计划生育需要将通过现代避孕方法得到满足。然而，考虑到2019冠状病毒病对特定方法使用的潜在影响，这一比例可能降至71%，导致2020年全球现代避孕药具使用者减少约6000万。避孕药具使用的总体下降将取决于妇女及其伴侣使用的方法以及所经历的中断类型。分析最后建议，各国应将计划生育和生殖健康服务纳入一揽子基本服务，并制定战略，确保妇女和夫妇能够在2019冠状病毒病危机期间行使其生殖权利。
The COVID-19 crisis could leave significant numbers of women and couples without access to essential sexual and reproductive health care. This research note analyses differences in contraceptive method mix across Sustainable Development Goal regions and applies assumed method-specific declines in use to produce an illustrative scenario of the potential impact of COVID-19 on contraceptive use and on the proportion of the need for family planning satisfied by modern methods. Globally, it had been estimated that 77 per cent of women of reproductive age (15-49years) would have their need for family planning satisfied with modern contraceptive methods in 2020. However, taking into account the potential impact of COVID-19 on method-specific use, this could fall to 71 per cent, resulting in around 60 million fewer users of modern contraception worldwide in 2020. Overall declines in contraceptive use will depend on the methods used by women and their partners and on the types of disruptions experienced. The analysis concludes with the recommendation that countries should include family planning and reproductive health services in the package of essential services anddevelop strategies toensure that women and couplesare able toexercise their reproductive rights during the COVID-19 crisis.
