Trends in health service use, Mexican Institute of Social Security, January 2019 to August 2021. Months 1–32 correspond to January 2019–August 2021. The blue lines are the observed service values at the national level. The vertical black dashed line indicates the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico (1 April 2020). The vertical grey dashed line is the start of the IMSS national strategy for health services recovery (1 April 2021). The definitions of the indicators of services use presented in this figure can be found in the previously published article by Doubova et al9. For instance, the indicator on children vaccination included information on Bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccine; the rotavirus vaccine; the pentavalent vaccine against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio and Haemophilus influenzae type B; the pneumococcal vaccine; and the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine applied in children 0–9 years.
