Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) screening between ages 50 and 75 years is a US Preventive Services Task Force Grade A recommendation.1 The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic initially decreased CRC screening participation by as much as 82%,2 and new variants continue to disrupt preventive care. Screening colonoscopy is more vulnerable to pandemic-related delays than the fecal immunochemical test (FIT).2 We estimated the potential clinical impact of pandemic-related interruptions in CRC screening on the US population.
