** "Local scope" in reference to the province of Ontario.
It has become clear to me that during this pandemic more women had opted for an at-home birth. This could be for a variety of reasons; fear of hospitals/ contracting the virus, a lack of hospital space, or perhaps other personal reasons. While I am not specifically looking for information about at-home births to be focused around the pandemic I do believe I am going to see a lot of new information about this topic because of said pandemic.
