Kuchengeta vana vasiri vavo kunofanirwa kunge kuri sarudzo yechinguvana yakagadzirirwa kubatsira vabereki kuisa rutsigiro kuti vakwanise kuchengeta vana vavo. Chirongwa ichi chakagadzirwa nechinangwa chekubatanidza mhuri. MuColorado, vana 4,804 vakaiswa munzvimbo dzinochengetwa vana 2020, zvichidzika kubva pa5,340 muna 2019. Izvi zvinofungidzirwa kuti zvakakonzerwa nekusaenda kuchikoro panguva yeCOVID-19. Nevadzidzisi vashoma, vanachipangamazano, uye mibato yapashure pechikoro, pakanga pane vatori venhau vanosungirwa vashoma uye vamwe vanhu vakuru vaiitira hanya kushuma itiro hanya yokuregeredzwa nokubatwa zvisina kufanira. Izvo zvakakosha kuti titaure kuti kana kufona kwaitwa maererano nekunetseka kwekuchengetedzwa kwemwana, izvi hazvireve kuti mwana anozongobviswa. Kana chichemo chikashumwa, muchengeti wemhosva anozotevera osarudza kana zviri kunetsa zvine musoro, kana mwana ari munjodzi nekukasika uye kana mamiriro acho achigona kuvandudzwa nerubatsiro rudiki.
