Tóm tắt

SOE measures to achieve physical distancing and restrict community contact were not associated with significant changes in time to ED presentation after acute stroke and AMI. Time to initial investigation and life‐saving interventions were also unchanged in the first 28 days. Public health messaging encouraging patients with acute illness or injury to seek medical assessment should be continued.
