Bui Publishes Analysis of Injuries During the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone Protests

The 2020 Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ) protests in Seattle raised important questions about healthcare needs during and after such events. In a recent study published in Injury Prevention, CSDE Affiliate Anthony Bui and colleagues analyzed emergency department data from two major hospitals near CHAZ, identifying 48 protest-related injury visits. The majority of injuries resulted from assaults, crowd-control weapons, and ground-level falls. These findings aim to inform healthcare providers and policymakers about potential injury patterns during protests to enhance preparedness and response strategies. Read the full study here.
