Data collected from a scoping review of published peer-reviewed literature during the first two years of the COVID-19 pandemic have highlighted the impact that the global pandemic has had on young people with anorexia nervosa and atypical anorexia nervosa. We found an increase in medical hospitalizations related to eating disorders, changes in eating disorder-related symptomology as well as overall poorer behavioral and mental health among this population as a result of COVID-19. We also found an increase in the use of telemedicine as treatment modality, particularly during lockdowns, which sheds light on more diverse modalities for treatment. Further research investigating how the series of lockdowns and re-openings impacted individuals with AN/AAN is warranted.
