Abstract

The prevailing COVID-19 pandemic and climate change-mediated wildfires can combine to impact maternal–child health, yet this connection remains understudied. To shape policies and design interventions to mitigate the combined effects of future global catastrophes, it is vital to holistically evaluate the impact of syndemics on maternal–child health.
