 note = {application/pdf, Most Japanese daycare centers do not accept ill children, even if they only have minor symptoms. Nurseries for children with mild illness have been developed (mostly in urban areas), but use of these nurseries dropped sharply during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aimed to clarify the reason for the decreased use of these nurseries. Data on trends in common infectious diseases reported by sentinel medical facilities to public health centers in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan from January 2018 to March 2021 were provided by the Hiroshima CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention). The number of monthly users of nurseries for children with mild illness in the 23 municipalities in Hiroshima Prefecture over the same period was obtained by a questionnaire survey. Multiple regression analysis was used to assess the association between the numbers of nursery users and common infectious diseases before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The regression coefficient between the number of users of these nurseries and number of common infectious diseases did not change between before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many parents may still have wished to use nurseries for children with mild illness during the COVID-19 pandemic., COVID-19のパンデミックの際には病児対応型保育施設の利用者数が激減した。本研究では、その理由を明らかにすることを目的として、 2018年1月から 2021年3月までの間に広島県内7保健所に報告された一般的な感染症の発生数と同期間の広島県 23 市町村の病児保育施設の月間利用者数との重回帰分析を行った。この結果、COVID-19パンデミックの前と中では、病児対応型保育施設の利用者数と一般的な感染症発生数との間の回帰係数に大きな変化はなかった。},
