A 1,500% SURGE in child abuse and it’s probably under-counted: the brutal, hidden cost of lockdown that should alarm the world
Covid-19 quarantine has exposed youngsters to severe abuse, neglect and isolation. As horrifying reports start to emerge, we need to do better to help protect society’s most vulnerable.
Despite the fact that, as it stands, Covid-19 is thankfully not providing an overwhelming threat to children’s health globally, they are suffering in other ways. They’re not allowed to go to school, attend camps, visit sports grounds or meet friends, meaning a gaping hole exists in which important milestones and rites of passage were missed and will never be experienced again.
For many children, it’s been boring, frustrating and sometimes depressing. However, for others, it’s been deadly, because the coronavirus lockdown has seen them fall prey to a wave of increased domestic abuse.
The Archives of Disease in Childhood, an international journal that informs pediatricians and doctors about advocacy issues such as child protection, disease diagnosis and treatment of childhood diseases, has reported a surge in domestic child abuse during the pandemic.
In surveying just one institution, London’s Great Ormond Street children’s hospital, over a period of just one month, it found a surge in new admissions of badly abused babies. Such cases have risen from an average of 0.67 in 2017, 2018, and 2019 to 10 cases in 2020 – an increase of 1,493 percent.
Ten babies – six boys and four girls – aged between 17 days and 13 months, presented with suspected head trauma between March 23 and April 23. They had collectively suffered breathing issues, brain swelling, skull fractures, loss of consciousness, seizures, extensive bruising, swollen scalp, marks caused by repeated damage, blood pooling in the brain, and bone fractures.
