Learning from public health and hospital resilience to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic: protocol for a multiple case study (Brazil, Canada, China, France, Japan, and Mali) - Ridde, Valéry; Gautier, Lara; Dagenais, Christian; Chabrol, Fanny; Hou, Renyou; Bonnet, Emmanuel; David, Pierre-Marie; Cloos, Patrick; Duhoux, Arnaud; Lucet, Jean-Christophe; Traverson, Lola; de Araujo Oliveira, Sydia Rosana; et al.

All prevention efforts currently being implemented for COVID-19 are aimed at reducing the burden on strained health systems and human resources. There has been little research conducted to understand how SARS-CoV-2 has affected health care systems and professionals in terms of their work. Finding effective ways to share the knowledge and insight between countries, including lessons learned, is paramount to the international containment and management of the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this project is to compare the pandemic response to COVID-19 in Brazil, Canada, China, France, Japan, and Mali. This comparison will be used to identify strengths and weaknesses in the response, including challenges for health professionals and health systems.
