Launched April 15, 2020, the CLSA COVID-19 Questionnaire Study collected data from 28,559 CLSA participants over an eight-month period. The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of the pandemic on older adults, exploring how they cope, the impacts on their physical and mental health and changes to how they access health-care services.
The CLSA COVID-19 Questionnaire Study collected data on a weekly/biweekly and monthly basis. The web-based and telephone-based interviews included questions on COVID-19 symptoms and status, risk factors, healthcare use, health behaviours, psychosocial and economic consequence of the pandemic.
