Abstract
An increase in severe acute hepatitis of unknown etiology was first reported in the United Kingdom in April 2022. Following this report, the Public Health Agency of Canada connected with three paediatric liver transplant centres across Canada to determine if an increase in liver transplants was noted. Data demonstrated no observable increase in the number of transplants conducted in 2022. These data in conjunction with a federal, provincial, territorial investigation provided insight into the situation in Canada.
