A comunicação de risco nas plataformas digitais oficiais da pandemia no Brasil / Risk communication in the official digital media of the pandemic in Brazil

Considerando a primeira onda do cenário pandêmico e a necessária operação de políticas e estratégias que promovam o autocuidado da população para a mitigação da disseminação do vírus da COVID-19, constatamos aqui, as ações adotadas nas plataformas digitais oficiais da administração pública federal no período de março a outubro de 2020. Para tal, utilizamo-nos do método da análise de conteúdo sobre tudo o material publicitado pelo Ministério da Saúde nas plataformas Twitter, Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, Spotify, Soundcloud, e sites oficiais; ministério da saúde, hotsite da pandemia, e blog da saúde. Com a análise, constatamos o prevalecimento de conteúdos que privilegiam a ilustração dos feitos do ministério, a 1. Autopromoção da própria gestão, com 27,57 parcent do total das publicações, 2. Promoção do autocuidado 18,87 por cento, 3. Dados oficiais com 18,55 por cento, 4. Notícias do cotidiano com 18,03 por cento 5. Comunicação técnica para públicos especializados com 9,25 por cento, e 6. Operação técnica estrutural com 7,73 por cento. Com 3428 postagens e 428 073 246 interações avaliadas, vimos os conteúdos de promoção do autocuidado (18,87 por cento) serem suprimidos por 81,13 por cento e outros aspectos abordados pela comunicação oficial do governo. Constatamos dessa forma que a ausência do devido suporte comunicativo oficial em nível equivalente às demandas sanitárias apresentadas na pandemia que se instaurou, abre espaço para lacunas de orientações essenciais à população, e até mesmo de desinformação, o que pode ter comprometido o enfrentamento rigoroso da disseminação do vírus(AU)

Considerando la primera ola del escenario pandémico y el necesario funcionamiento de políticas y estrategias que promueven el autocuidado de la población para mitigar la propagación del virus COVID-19, se recogen en este trabajo las acciones realizadas en los medios digitales oficiales de la ciudadanía federal en el período comprendido entre marzo y octubre de 2020. Para ello se utilizó el método de análisis de contenido en todo el material publicitado por el Ministerio de Salud en las plataformas Twitter, Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, Spotify, Soundcloud y sitios web oficiales; Ministerio de Salud, sitio de acceso a la pandemia y blog de salud. Con el análisis se constató la prevalencia de contenidos que privilegian la ilustración de los logros del Ministerio: 1. La autopromoción de la propia gestión, con el 27,57 por ciento del total de publicaciones, 2. promoción del autocuidado,18,87 por ciento, 3. Datos oficiales con 18,55 por ciento, 4. Noticias diarias con el 18,03 por ciento, 5. Comunicación técnica para públicos especializados con 9,25 por ciento, y 6. Operación técnica estructural con 7,73 por ciento. En las 3428 publicaciones y 428 073 246 interacciones evaluadas se apreció que el contenido de promoción del autocuidado (18,87 por ciento) fue suprimido por el 81,13 por ciento de otros aspectos abordados por la comunicación oficial del gobierno. De esta forma se encuentra que la ausencia de un adecuado soporte comunicativo oficial, que sea equivalente a las demandas de salud presentadas en la pandemia, abre espacio a lagunas en los lineamientos esenciales para la población e, incluso, a la desinformación que puede haber comprometido la situación para el enfrentamiento riguroso a la diseminación del virus(AU)

Considering the first wave of the pandemic scenario and the necessary operation of policies and strategies that promote the population's self-care to mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 virus, we see here the actions taken in the official digital media of the federal public administration in the period from March to October 2020. To this end, we used the method of content analysis on all material advertised by the Ministry of Health on the platforms Twitter, Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, Spotify, Soundcloud, and official websites; ministry of health, pandemic hotsite, and health blog. With the analysis, we verified the prevalence of contents that privilege the illustration of the ministry's achievements, the 1. Self-promotion of the management itself, with 27.57percent of the total publications, 2. Self-care promotion 18.87percent, 3. Official data with 18.55percent, 4. Daily news with 18.03percent, 5. Technical communication for specialized audiences with 9.25percent and 6. Structural technical operation with 7.73percent. With 3428 posts and 428,073,246 interactions evaluated, we saw self-care promotion content (18.87percent) being suppressed by 81.13percent of other aspects addressed by official government communication. In this way, we found that the absence of proper official communicative support at a level equivalent to the health demands presented in the pandemic that was established, leaves gaps in essential guidelines for the population, and even misinformation, which may have compromised the rigorous confrontation of the dissemination of the virus(AU)

Manejo del sistema de salud de Ecuador frente a la resistencia antimicrobiana

Introducción: El Sistema de Salud del Ecuador cuenta con el Plan Nacional para la Prevención y Control de la Resistencia a los Antimicrobianos, que persigue la mejora en la calidad de la atención en médica y, desde ahí, llamar la atención en el aumento de la resistencia microbiana, que se ha convertido en un problema de suma relevancia para la salud pública mundial. Objetivo: Sistematizar conocimientos sobre el manejo del sistema de salud del Ecuador frente a la resistencia antimicrobiana. Método: Se llevó a cabo una revisión bibliográfica exhaustiva en buscadores bibliográficos como Scopus, Google Académico y PubMed, con la búsqueda de palabras clave. La indagación se realizó el 20 de mayo de 2022, de los 39 artículos fueron seleccionados según criterios solo 20 artículos. Resultados: Ecuador cuenta con un sistema de salud mixto, constituido por el sector público del Ministerio de Salud Pública (MSP), el Instituto Ecuatoriano de Seguridad Social (IESS), el Instituto de Seguridad de las Fuerzas Armadas (ISSFA) y el Instituto Nacional de Seguridad Policial (ISSPOL); por otro lado, está el sector privado, integrado por la Asociación Nacional de Clínicas y Hospitales Privados del Ecuador. Ambos se encuentran integrados a fin de garantizar el desarrollo integral en salud de toda la población ecuatoriana, regular y controlar las actividades que realizan las entidades tanto públicas como privadas, sin distinción, para combatir la amenaza que representa el incremento en el uso indiscriminado de antimicrobianos, con repercusiones en la salud humana y animal. Consideraciones finales: La forma ineficiente de combatir el riesgo sanitario por resistencia antimicrobiana afecta a la población ecuatoriana como consecuencia del uso indiscriminado e inadecuado de antibióticos, y el insuficiente uso de los tratamientos convencionales.

Introduction: The Health Care System in Ecuador has a National Plan for the Prevention and Control of antimicrobial resistance, which aims to improve the quality of medical care and based from this goal focus attention on the increase in microbial resistance, which has become a highly relevant problem for global public health. Objective: To systematize knowledge on how the Ecuatorian health care system confront the antimicrobial resistance. Method: An exhaustive bibliographic review was carried out in bibliographic search engines such as Scopus, Google Scholar and PubMed, with the use in the search process of expecifics keywords. The research was carried out on May 20, 2022, and of the 39 articles only 20 were selected according to the criteria needed. Results: Ecuador has a mixed health care system, made up by the Ministry of Public Health (MSP), the Ecuadorian Social Security Institute (IESS), the Social Security of the Armed Forces (ISSFA) and the Institute Security National Police (ISSPOL), all representing the public sector; on the other hand, representing the private sector, it´s included the National Association of Private Clinics and Hospitals of Ecuador (Asociación Nacional de Clínicas y Hospitales Privados del Ecuador). Both are integrated to guarantee the integral health development in the entire Ecuadorian population, regulate and control the activities conducted by both public and private entities, without distinction, and to face the threat posed by the increase in the indiscriminate use of antimicrobials and its consequent repercussions on human and animal health. Conclusions: The inefficient way of combating the health risk related to antimicrobial resistance affects the Ecuadorian population due to indiscriminate and inadequate use of antibiotics and the insufficient use of conventional treatments.

The birth of a Ministry of Public Health in Colombia, 1946-1953: Cold War, invisible government and asymmetrical interdependence / El nacimiento de un Ministerio de Salud Pública en Colombia, 1946-1953: Guerra Fría, gobierno invisible e interdependencia asimétrica

Abstract This article studies the shift from a Ministry of Hygiene in Colombia to a Ministry of Public Health, from 1946 to 1953. This was not only a new name for the ministry, but a transitional process from government policies based on European public hygiene towards institutionalizing the North American model of public health. The process involved negotiations between local government representatives and the Currie Mission, which was sent to Colombia by the Inter-American Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the Inter-American Cooperative Health Service. These negotiations took place via asymmetrical relationships of interdependence, within the framework of the "invisible government" implemented by the United States in Latin America during the Cold War.

Resumen Este artículo estudia el cambio de un Ministerio de Higiene en Colombia a un Ministerio de Salud Pública, de 1946 a 1953. Este no fue solo un nuevo nombre para el ministerio sino un proceso de transición de políticas gubernamentales basadas en la higiene pública europea hacia la institucionalización del modelo norteamericano de salud pública. El proceso involucró negociaciones entre representantes del gobierno local y la Misión Currie, que fue enviada a Colombia por el Banco Interamericano de Reconstrucción y Desarrollo y el Servicio Cooperativo Interamericano de Salud. Estas negociaciones se dieron a través de relaciones asimétricas de interdependencia, en el marco del "gobierno invisible" implementado por Estados Unidos en América Latina durante la Guerra Fría.

Análise da aplicabilidade da Portaria 557 do Ministério das Cidades em estudos de viabilidade técnico-econômica para incineração com recuperação energética de resíduo sólido urbano no Brasil / Analysis of the applicability of Ordinance 557 of the Ministry of Cities in technical-economic feasibility studies for incineration with MSW energy recovery in Brazil

RESUMO Os estudos de viabilidade técnico econômica são elementos primordiais para a viabilização de projetos de saneamento, inclusive de incineração de resíduo sólido urbano com recuperação energética. O artigo teve como base os padrões para estudos de viabilidade técnico econômica conforme Portaria n° 557 do Ministério das Cidades, previstos na lei n° 11.445 que estabelece diretrizes nacionais para o saneamento básico. Foram realizadas visitas técnicas em quatro incineradores em operação na Suíça e dois em Portugal, com o objetivo de estabelecer um benchmarking para referenciar a análise da aplicação da Portaria, a identificação dos fatores críticos que dificultam a adoção dessa tecnologia no Brasil, assim como as ações necessárias para a viabilidade técnico-econômica do incinerador. Os principais fatores críticos identificados foram a localização da planta, o efeito Not in My Backyard, a concepção de conflito entre reciclagem e incineração, o elevado investimento inicial, o risco de adoção de tecnologias já superadas, a falta de experiência e mão de obra capacitada local, a variação e sazonalidade na alimentação de resíduo sólido urbano, a volatilidade do preço da energia no mercado, as receitas mínimas para viabilidade financeira, a adequação do arcabouço legal e a seleção de modelo de negócio adequado.

ABSTRACT Technical-economic feasibility studies are essential elements for making sanitation projects feasible, including projects of MSW incinerators with energy recovery. This article is based on the reference standards for technical-economic feasibility studies according to Ordinance No. 557 (2016) of the Ministry of Cities, provided for in Law No. 11.445, which establishes national guidelines for basic sanitation. Technical visits were carried out in four incinerators in Switzerland and two in Portugal in order to establish a benchmark to reference the analysis of the application of the Ordinance, the identification of critical factors that hinder the adoption of this technology in Brazil, as well as the necessary actions for technical-economic feasibility. The objective of this article is to propose an adaptation of the technical-economic feasibility studies model of the Ordinance for a MSW incinerator project with energy recovery, identifying the critical factors and actions related to the financial-economic viability that hinder the adoption of this technology in Brazil. The critical factors identified were the location of the plant, the Not in My Backyard effect, the concept of conflict between recycling and incineration, the high initial investment, the risk of adopting technologies that have already been overcome, the lack of experience and hands of qualified local work, variation and seasonality in MSW supply, volatility in the price of energy in the market, minimum revenues for financial viability, adequacy of the legal framework, and selection of an appropriate business model.

Ética y jurisprudencia administrativa de los derechos de los sujetos de investigación en pandemia (COVID-19): función de los comités éticos científicos: Chile / Ethics and administrative jurisprudence of the rights of subjects of research in pandemic (COVID-19): role of the scientific ethics committees: Chile

RESUMEN: Todo gobierno debe reaccionar rápida y efectivamente ante cualquier pandemia, Chile no es la excepción y apoyado en el estado de Excepción Constitucional, ha tenido que implementar medidas que podrían involucrar poca información sobre las percepciones de las personas y las reacciones durante la implementación de las restricciones. Las instituciones internacionales de salud han determinado que es un deber moral realizar investigaciones que generen evidencia que promuevan y mejoren la atención de la salud y la mitigación de la pandemia, instando a reducir los "obstáculos" prácticos de la revisión ética. Los objetivos de este trabajo fueron analizar desde las perspectivas de las consideraciones éticas y jurídicas, el rol que cumplen los Comités Éticos Científicos en el manejo y la protección de las personas durante la pandemia de la COVID-19. La metodología de trabajo se basó en la recolección de la información de Instituciones nacionales e internacionales de Salud y luego analizarla según la jurisprudencia administrativa del gobierno de Chile. Se concluye que los cambios de criterios que deben observar los CECs en el proceso de revisión de los protocolos de los proyectos de investigación científica, deben velar por proteger los derechos de los pacientes y sujetos de investigación en cuanto puede involucrar información sensible, más aún, si se consideran las graves consecuencias de su transgresión, dar un sentido distinto al que corresponda a las normas sobre derechos de pacientes, puede resultar en "falta de servicio" y eventual vulneración en los derechos del sujeto de investigación. La labor de los CEC, debe realizarse siempre desde una interpretación restrictiva, reconociendo la función pública que cumplen como parte integrante de la labor ética encomendada por el legislador al efecto.

SUMMARY: Every government must react quickly and effectively to any pandemic, Chile is no exception and supported by the state of Constitutional Exception, it has had to implement measures that could involve little information about people's perceptions and reactions during the implementation of the restrictions. International health institutions have determined that it is a moral duty to carry out research that generates evidence that promotes and improves health care and the mitigation of the pandemic, urging to reduce the practical "obstacles" to ethical review. The objective of this study was to analyze from the perspectives of ethical and legal considerations, the role that Scientific Ethics Committees play in the management and protection of people during the COVID-19 pandemic. The methodology used was based on collecting information from national and international Health Institutions and then analyzing it according to the administrative jurisprudence of the Chilean government. It is concluded that the changes in criteria that the CECs must observe in the process of reviewing the protocols of scientific research projects, must ensure the protection of the rights of patients and research subjects insofar as it may involve sensitive information, even more if the serious consequences of its transgression are considered. Giving a different meaning to the one that corresponds may result in "lack of service" and eventual violation of the rights of the research subject. The task of the CEC, must always be carried out from a restrictive interpretation, recognizing the public function that they fulfill as an integral part of the ethical work entrusted by the legislators to that effect.

Knowledge, Perception and Practice of Infection Control among Ministry of Health staff during COVID-19 Outbreak in Malaysia

@#Introduction Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) was declared a pandemic in the middle of March as the disease is highly contagious and spread very quickly throughout the world. Understanding the knowledge and practice among healthcare staff is also crucial, especially among the frontlines staff, as they need to protect themselves and facilitate in educating their patients and public regarding disease prevention measures. This study's objective is to assess knowledge, practice, and perception on the effectiveness of the preventive measures taken by Ministry of Health (MOH) staff to prevent transmission of the disease and measures they would take should they develop symptoms of the disease on COVID-19 disease. (TPB). Methods We conducted a cross-sectional online survey from 30th March 2020 to 6th April 2020 among the Ministry of Health staff. 1719 staff completed the survey. Results The overall correct rate of knowledge was 46.6%. Most participants held good perceptions (range from 77.8% to 98.4%) and good practices (range from 88.8% to 99.7%) towards COVID-19 preventive measure. Meanwhile, the preventive measures practices if they develop symptoms of COVID-19 range from 89.8% to 99.7% and for the perception, it ranges from 85.5% to 98.9%. Conclusions There are also still some lower percentages of perceptions and practices than expected. Additional education intervention and campaigns are required to provide the Ministry of health staff with adequate knowledge towards COVID19 main symptoms, general knowledge and transmission route of COVID-19, and increase some of the perceptions and practices on COVID-19 preventive measures.

Effects of Different Shoe Conditions on Achilles Tendon Loading in Runners with Habitual Rearfoot Strike Patterns / 医用生物力学

Objective To investigate the mechanical properties of Achilles tendon (AT) during running under different shoe conditions (minimalist vs conventional shoes). MethodsSixteen healthy male runners with habitual rearfoot strike patterns were recruited to complete the running trials at the speed of 3.16~3.50 m/s under two shoe conditions. The cross-sectional area of the AT was obtained by ultrasound imaging. Sagittal plane ankle kinematics and ground reaction forces were recorded by motion capture system and three-dimensional force platform simultaneously. Mechanical properties of the ankle and AT were calculated. Paired t test was used to compare the effects of two shoe conditions on various parameters (ankle angle, strike angle, AT force, stress, strain, etc). ResultsCompared with conventional shoes, foot inclination angle was significantly reduced by 39.9% with minimalist shoes. Obvious increase in ankle moment, peak AT force, peak AT loading rate, average loading rate, and obvious decrease in time to peak AT force were observed with minimalist shoes. Peak AT stress, peak AT strain and corresponding stress rate, peak strain rate also increased significantly with minimalist shoes. ConclusionsGreater AT loading was observed when runners with habitual rearfoot strike pattern in conventional shoes begin to wear minimalist shoes. Therefore, a gradual transition to minimalist shoes was recommended for them so as to improve the ability to load adaptively.

Abstract Legal intervention in early childhood education policies has facilitated the consolidation of the right to education in Brazil for children aged 0 to 5 years. Such a process, seen from the perspective of the judicialization of public policies, fosters both beneficial and adverse impacts on government actions. This paper aims to scrutinize the direct and indirect effects of the judicialization of early childhood education carried out through judicial and extra-judicial proceedings in the local context of nine municipalities scattered across four Brazilian states. The methodology adopted here is the qualitative research, approached with case studies, probing into how Public-interest Civil Actions and Conduct Adjustment Agreements changed local management and planning in the selected cases.

Análise de Solicitações ao Ministério Público sobre o Direito das Pessoas com Deficiência à Educação / Analysis of Requests to the Public Ministry on the Right of People with Disabilities to Education

RESUMO Este trabalho analisa as solicitações referentes ao direito à educação do público-alvo da Educação Especial que chegam ao Grupo de Atuação Especial de Educação - Geduc - do Ministério Público do Estado de São Paulo, desde sua criação em 2011 até o final de 2017, totalizando 163 procedimentos. Busca-se depreender com que intuito, de que maneira e por quais setores da sociedade tal instância é acionada. Utilizaram-se as seguintes categorias: proponentes das solicitações, tipos de reivindicações, rede de ensino a que se referem e variação na quantidade de solicitações ao longo dos anos. Percebe-se que a maior parte das solicitações endereçadas ao Ministério Público são propostas por familiares das pessoas com deficiência, referindo-se a pleitos envolvendo suportes para escolarização em classes comuns de escolas regulares, sobretudo, na rede estadual de ensino de São Paulo. Quanto à variação de solicitações, nota-se um grande número de solicitações nos primeiros anos após a criação do Geduc, com um decréscimo nos últimos anos, o que poderia relacionar-se à maneira como este Grupo vem atuando. Verifica-se a reconfiguração das atuações do Geduc ao longo do período de 2011 a 2017, com a presença de elementos representativos da disposição para atuar na transposição da queixa inicial para a demanda efetiva subjacente. Assim, em vez de respostas diretas requerendo a execução da solicitação por parte das/os representadas/os, são encontradas ações mais demoradas de promoção de diálogo sobre o problema posto. Entende-se, portanto, que as solicitações podem ser utilizadas como ferramenta de ampliação e de qualificação do diálogo entre Ministério Público, sociedade civil e Poder Executivo, visando à universalização do direito à educação.

ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the requests regarding the right to education of the Special Education target population that reach the Special Education Action Group (Grupo de Atuação Especial de Educação - GEDUC) of the Public Ministry of the State of São Paulo, from its creation in 2011 until the end of 2017, totaling 163 procedures. It seeks to understand with what purpose, in what manner and by which sectors of society such an instance is triggered. The following categories were used: proponents, types of claims, education network to which they refer and variation in the number of requests over the years. It is noticed that most of the requests addressed to the Public Ministry are proposed by family members of people with disabilities, referring to claims involving support for schooling in common classes of regular schools, especially in the state school system of São Paulo. As for the variation in requests, there is a large number of requests in the first years after the creation of GEDUC, with a decrease in recent years, which could be related to the way this Group has been operating. There is a reconfiguration of GEDUC's actions over the period from 2011 to 2017, with the presence of elements representative of the willingness to act in the transposition of the initial complaint to the underlying effective demand. Thus, instead of direct responses requiring the execution of the request by the represented parties, more time-consuming actions are found to promote dialogue on the problem posed. It is understood, therefore, that requests can be used as a tool to expand and qualify the dialogue between the Public Ministry, civil society and the Executive Branch, aiming at the universalization of the right to education.
