Abstract

Data were collected as part of the Child Health and Mortality Prevention Surveillance (CHAMPS) network to learn about the effects of COVID-19 lockdowns on child health and access to care. Data were collected between August and September 2021 through a Health and Demographic Surveillance System (HDSS) operating in Eastern Ethiopia using a survey instrument focused on knowledge about COVID-19 and changes in food availability and healthcare services during the COVID-19 related lockdown. The data are representative of two communities in Eastern Ethiopia, one rural (Kersa) and one urban (Harar), and consist of a random sample of 880 households.

Keywords: East Africa; Resilience; SARS-CoV-2; Vulnerability.
