Breast cancer incidence across the COVID-19 pandemic by area deprivation and race/ethnicity. a Average monthly breast cancer incidence across the pandemic by area deprivation. Less-deprived areas correspond to Area Deprivation Index percentiles between 0 and 80%, and most deprived corresponds to Area Deprivation Index percentiles over 80%. b Average monthly breast cancer incidence across the pandemic by race/ethnicity. 95% confidence intervals are shown. Pre-COVID is January 2017 through March 2020, COVID period 1 April 2020 through May 2020, and COVID period 2 June 2020 through February 2021. There were no significant differences in the reduction in breast cancer incidence in COVID period 1 and its recovery in COVID period 2 across Area Deprivation Index or race/ethnicity
