Study summary

Emergency departments have been placed at the heart of the patient triage strategy during the COVID-19 epidemic. In the absence of scientific knowledge on the most efficient strategy to put in place in emergency structures, the centers have proposed very heterogeneous protocols resulting from collaboration with local radiology and virology teams. While the pandemic in France appears to be currently under control, it is important to assess the sorting strategies put in place to deal with a new epidemic.
