For Angular 8 or posterior @ViewChild have an additional parameter called opts, which have two properties: read and static, read is optional. You can use it like so:

// ...
@ViewChild('mydiv', { static: false }) public mydiv: ElementRef;

constructor() {
// ...

NOTE: Static: false is not required anymore in Angular 9. (just { static: true } when you are going to use that variable inside ngOnInit)
