ABSTRACT

Este trabalho teve o objetivo de estudar quais foram os principais impactos e distúrbios desenvolvidos pelos trabalhadores no estado de São Paulo durante a pandemia de Covid-19. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória que se utilizou de questionários respondidos por duzentas e quarenta e sete pessoas que estavam trabalhando em home office em virtude das medidas de isolamento social adotadas para barrar a proliferação do vírus. A pesquisa indica que talvez o maior problema na pandemia a ser enfrentado pelas empresas e pelos RH não seja o próprio vírus, agora que já existem vacinas, mas a forma com que a nossa sociedade está lidando com novas demandas de lockdown, homeschooling, isolamento social, distanciamento social e convivência em tempo integral com as pessoas de casa. Assim, os resultados do estudo sugerem a necessidade de as empresas adotarem iniciativas a fim de auxiliar todas as pessoas com sintomas ansiosos e depressivos, ocasionados pela adoção do isolamento social, principalmente em home office, oferecendo aos empregados solidariedade e apoio. Pode-se pensar em grupos de apoio em intranet das empresas redes sociais e programas de prevenção, conversas com psicólogos, orientações, dicas para superar e passar essa fase e muitos outros conteúdos relevantes para que promova o bem-estar e saúde mental dos trabalhadores. Entende-se que esse tipo de pesquisa deve ser repetido ao longo da pandemia e após seu término pelas próprias empresas para verificar a situação de seus empregados e direcionar ações mais específicas a cada caso.Alternate :This work aims to study what were the main impacts and disturbances developed by workers in the state of São Paulo during the Covid-19 pandemic. This is an exploratory research that used questionnaires answered by two hundred and forty-seven people who were working in the home office due to the social isolation measures adopted to stop the proliferation of the virus. The research indicates that perhaps the biggest problem in the pandemic to be faced by companies and HR is not the virus itself, now that vaccines already exist, but the way our society is dealing with new demands for lockdown, homeschooling, social isolation, social distance and full-time living with people at home. Thus, the results of the study suggest the need for companies to take initiatives in order to help all people with anxious and depressive symptoms, caused by the adoption of social isolation, especially in the home office, offering employees solidarity and support. One can think of support groups on companies intranet social networks and prevention programs, conversations with psychologists, guidelines, tips to overcome and pass this phase and many other relevant content to promote the well-being and mental health of workers. It is understood that this type of research must be repeated throughout the pandemic and after its end by the companies themselves to verify the situation of their employees and direct more specific actions to each case.

ABSTRACT

This text analyzes videos that have erotized situations linked to COVID-19, in which the use of gloves, masks, alcohol gel, or protective gear have represented the context of the pandemic, and that are referred to here as "pornography of confinement." The aim of this article is to explore the characteristics of this type of pornography and analyze the links between such videos and demands upon the biopolitical subject, who is to be responsible for their own health. Approximately twenty-seven videos from the website Pornhub were reviewed, with special attention to ten that were entitled The Cleanest Porn Ever. All these materials aim to promote "safe sex" based on social distancing, viewing pornography, or learning hygienic techniques to avoid infection. Diverse theories, news stories, and data on this topic were used in the analysis. Among the key findings, pornography of confinement reflects the liberal subjectivity, as the individuals represented are not interested in strengthening social ties or participating in cultural change but rather in attending to their own immediate and individual needs. Finally, it is concluded that reality is simplified in this type of pornography by connecting people with "positive" emotions, discarding the potential for change that entails ties to the collective. (English) [ FROM AUTHOR] En el presente texto se analizan los videos que han erotizado algunas situaciones ligadas a la covid-19, como el uso de guantes, mascarillas, alcohol en gel o trajes de protección para representar el contexto específico de la pandemia y que aquí se denomina "pornografía del confinamiento". Los objetivos del artículo son explorar las características de este tipo de pornografía y analizar los vínculos entre tales videos y la exigencia hacia el sujeto biopolítico de que se responsabilice por su salud. Se revisaron alrededor de veintisiete videos de la página Pornhub, prestando especial atención a diez que fueron titulados The Cleanest Porn Ever. Todos estos materiales buscan promover el "sexo seguro" basado en el distanciamiento social, en la visualización de pornografía o en el aprendizaje de técnicas higiénicas para evitar el contagio. En el análisis se utilizaron diversas teorías, noticias y estadísticas sobre el tema. Entre los hallazgos encontrados sobresale que la pornografía del confinamiento es un reflejo de la subjetividad liberal, en la que los individuos no están interesados en fortalecer el lazo social o participar en modificaciones culturales, sino en atender sus necesidades inmediatas e individuales. Finalmente, se concluye que con este tipo de pornografía se simplifica la realidad al conectar a las personas con emociones "positivas", descartando la potencia de las modificaciones que implican vínculos con la comunidad.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: la pandemia de covid-19 ha suscitado un nuevo interés en la historia de la salud. Tanto en Chile como en otras partes del mundo, la búsqueda de respuestas en torno a cómo las sociedades pasadas han enfrentado la llegada de alguna epidemia ha hecho recordar que el contagio forma parte de nuestra historia y la estrecha relación que existe entre enfermedad y Estado. Desarrollo: se estudia la dimensión pública de la salud en Santiago de Chile entre los años 1810 y 1842, indagando, principalmente, en las respuestas que el Estado y sus instituciones entregaron en materia sanitaria frente a la aparición de brotes epidémicos. Se revisan las epidemias generadas por escarlatina, viruela y erisipela, dado que fueron las enfermedades que desencadenaron una respuesta de carácter institucional. Conclusión: la aparición de dichos brotes epidémicos se tradujo en que el Estado, a través de instituciones como el Protomedicato, la Junta de Sanidad, la Junta de Beneficencia o la Junta de Vacuna, articuló una respuesta sanitaria que se centró en mejorar las condiciones de higiene de la ciudad. A su vez, dio cuenta de dimensión pública de la enfermedad y de la capacidad que el Estado tuvo de poner en marcha medidas concretas que permitieran frenar los estragos de las epidemias


Introduction: The covid-19 pandemic has generated a new interest in the history of health. In Chile and other parts of the world, search for answers regarding societies that have dealt with epidemics reminds us that contagions have been a part of our history and that there is a close relationship between disease and the State. Development: We studied the public dimension of health in Santiago de Chile between 1810 and 1842, mainly considering the responses of the State and its institutions toward epidemic out-breaks. In addition, we reviewed the scarlet fever, smallpox, and erysipelas epidemics, as these were the diseases that triggered an institutional response. Conclusion: The appearance of these epidemic out-breaks signified that the State, through institutions such as the Protomedicato, Junta de Sanidad, Junta de Beneficencia, or Junta de Vacuna, articulated a sanitary response that focused on improving the hygienic conditions of the city. At the same time, epidemic outbreaks also showed the public dimension of a dis-ease and the State's capacity to implement specific measures to cope with the ravages of epidemics


Introdução: a pandemia que vivemos de covid-19 despertou um novo interesse na história da saúde. Tanto no Chile como em outras partes do mundo, a busca por respostas sobre como as sociedades do passado enfrentaram a chegada de uma epidemia nos lembrou que o contágio faz parte da nossa história e da estreita relação que existe entre a doença e o Estado. Desenvolvimento: estuda-se a dimensão pública da saúde em Santiago do Chile entre os anos 1810 e 1842, investigando principalmente as respostas que o Estado e suas instituições deram em matéria de saúde ante o aparecimento de surtos epidêmicos. Revisamos as epidemias geradas pela escarlatina, varíola e erisipela, por serem as doenças que desen-cadearam uma resposta institucional. Conclusão: o surgimento desses surtos epidêmicos fez com que o Estado, por meio de instituições como o Protomedicato, o Conselho de Saúde, o Conselho de Caridade ou o Conselho de Vacinas, articulasse uma resposta sanitária centrada na melhoria das condições de higiene da cidade. Ao mesmo tempo, deu conta da dimensão pública da doença e da capacidade de que dispõe o Estado para implementar medidas concretas que permitiram conter a devastação das epidemias

ABSTRACT

Introducción: este artículo pretende estudiar las medidas tomadas en las epidemias de viruela de Santiago (1787), Concepción (1789) y Santafé (1782/1802), para compararlas y entender cómo el estudio de estas epidemias nos puede dar luces para el abordaje del reto de salud pública actual: la pandemia de covid-19. Desarrollo: el artículo está dividido en tres partes: en la primera se exponen las medidas de higiene que se tomaron para subsanar y prevenir estas epidemias, previas a la llegada de la vacunación, comparando el rol desempeñado por los actores locales en cada región; en la segunda se relata y se compara el proceso de llegada y búsqueda de la vacuna contra la viruela en cada territorio, y en la tercera se reflexiona brevemente sobre la pandemia actual. Conclusiones: en el análisis comparativo, se destaca la manera en la que la agenda transcolonial incluye una serie de similitudes para su aplicación en cada territorio, pero también las diferencias que los procesos locales y transcoloniales plantean para su domesticación en cada uno de ellos. Además, se resaltan las particularidades que ha tenido la pandemia de covid-19 y las lecciones que este estudio de caso deja para pensar en la necesidad de enfrentarla desde una perspectiva global.


Introduction: This study aimed to investigate and compare measures implemented during the smallpox epidemics in Santiago (1787), Concepción (1789), and Santafé (1782/1802). In addition, we also tried to understand how the study of these epidemics could help identify an approach for managing the current public health challenge, i.e., the covid-19 pandemic. Development: The article is divided into three parts: the first part studies the hygienic measures that were taken to face and prevent the epidemics as well as compares the role played by local actors in each region; the second part studies the processes of searching and acquiring smallpox vaccine in Santafé and Santiago; and the third part reflects on the current pandemic scenario. Conclusions: Through comparative analysis, we evaluated the similarities in the application of transcolonial agenda in each territory and the differences brought about by local and transcolonial processes implemented for its domestication. Furthermore, we highlighted particular processes conducted for managing and treating covid-19 as well as lessons learnt from this case study about the need of dealing with covid-19 from a global perspective.


Introdução: este artigo tem como objetivo estudar as medidas tomadas nas epidemias de varíola de Santiago (1787), Concepción (1789) e Santafé (1782/1802), compará-las e compreender como o estudo des-sas epidemias pode lançar luz sobre a abordagem do desafio atual da saúde pública: a pandemia covid-19. Desenvolvimento: o artigo está dividido em três partes: na primeira, são expostas as medidas de higiene que foram tomadas para corrigir e prevenir estas epidemias, antes da chegada da vacinação, comparando o papel desempenhado pelos atores locais em cada região; na segunda, relaciona-se e compara-se o processo de chegada e busca da vacina contra a varíola em cada território; e, na terceira, faz uma breve refle-xão sobre a atual pandemia. Conclusões: na análise comparativa, destacamos a forma como a agenda transcolonial suscita uma série de semelhanças para a sua aplicação em cada território, mas também as diferenças que os processos locais e transcoloniais colocam para a sua domesticação em cada um deles. Além disso, destacamos as particularidades que a pandemia covid-19 teve e as lições que este estudo de caso deixa para pensar a necessidade de enfrentá-la a partir de uma perspectiva global.

ABSTRACT

With the current COVID-19 pandemic that humanity is experiencing and the mobilization of all health systems to exercise sanitary measures such as quarantines and other measures to reduce infections, it should be remembered that these practices have been possible thanks to the experiences that in hygiene matters we have accumulated in our history. This essay aims to highlight about hygiene, the historicity of the concept, and its object of study as a medical discipline, in medical texts published in Spain during the 19th century, to help us understand the contributions of this science to current clinical practice and for these purposes, the bibliographic material was obtained from the National Library of Spain.


Con la actual pandemia de COVID-19 que la humanidad vive y la movilización de todos los sistemas de salud para ejercer medidas sanitarias, como los confinamientos, las cuarentenas y otras medidas para disminuir los contagios, vale la pena recordar que estas prácticas han sido posibles por las experiencias que en materia de higiene hemos acumulado en nuestra historia. Este ensayo tiene como objetivo destacar la higiene, la historicidad del concepto y su objeto de estudio como disciplina médica, en textos publicados en España en el siglo XIX, para ayudarnos a entender los aportes de esta ciencia a la práctica clínica actual. Con tales fines se obtuvo el material bibliográfico en la Biblioteca Nacional de España.

ABSTRACT

Los trabajadores de la industria están expuestos a distintos tipos de riesgos, incluyendo la exposición laboral a agentes biológicos como virus, bacterias, hongos, parásitos, esporas o toxinas capaces de originar algún tipo de infección, enfermedad o toxicidad. Gran variedad de estos patógenos ha sido identificada sobre distintas superficies dentro de instalaciones de trabajo, persistiendo en algunos casos luego de las jornadas de limpieza habituales, e incluso sobreviviendo por largos períodos de tiempo. Los hallazgos preliminares indican que los procesos de higiene en dos industrias permitieron disminuir de manera estadísticamente significativa la presencia de E. Coli y Sars-Cov-2, en las superficies dentro de las instalaciones. Por el contrario, en una tercera industria se observó que los procesos de higiene y limpieza no lograron reducir eficazmente la presencia de los patógenos La auditoría de higiene en instalaciones de industrias textiles debe incluir la capacidad de hallar e identificar los peligros biológicos que aún estén presentes en superficies, una vez ejecutados los protocolos rutinarios de limpieza y desinfección establecidos por la organización. Para esta labor proponemos la práctica complementaria de tres procedimientos: la determinación microbiológica, mediante torundas o placas de contacto, la determinación visual con luz ultravioleta, para comprobar el grado de eficacia de la limpieza, y la determinación específica, consistente en la detección de ARN de virus SARS-CoV-2 (causante del COVID-19) en muestras ambientales de superficies por el método de PCR en tiempo real(AU)


Industrial workers are exposed to different types of risks, including occupational exposure to biological agents such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, parasites, spores or toxins capable of causing some type of infection, disease or toxicity. A great variety of these pathogens have been identified on different surfaces within work facilities, persisting in some cases after the usual cleaning days, and even surviving for long periods of time. Preliminary findings indicate that hygiene processes in two industries allowed a statistically significant decrease in the presence of E. Coli and Sars-Cov-2, on surfaces within the facilities. On the contrary, in a third industry it was observed that hygiene and cleaning processes failed to effectively reduce the presence of pathogens Hygiene audit in textile industry facilities should include the ability to find and identify biological hazards that are still present on surfaces, once the routine cleaning and disinfection protocols established by the organization have been executed. For this work, we propose the complementary practice of three procedures: microbiological determination, using swabs or contact plates, visual determination with ultraviolet light, to verify the degree of cleaning efficiency, and specific determination, consisting of RNA detection. of SARS-CoV-2 virus (causing COVID-19) in environmental samples of surfaces by the real-time PCR method(AU)

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: During the COVID-19 pandemic, adherence to hygiene measures is an objective aimed at reducing morbidity and mortality. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate adherence to hand hygiene and protection measures during the COVID-19 pandemic in a tertiary care hospital. METHODS: Cross-sectional study on health personnel handwashing at the five moments recommended by the World Health Organization, as well as on the use of specific personal protective equipment. RESULTS: One hundred and seventeen hand hygiene opportunities were observed in health personnel. Hand washing was observed in 40 (34 %) and omission in 76 (65 %). Adherence to the use of face shield was observed in five (4 %), and lack of adherence in 112 (96%). Adherence to the use of face mask was observed in 65 nursing professionals (87 %), with appropriate use of the mask in 56 of them (60 %) and use of face shield in one (1 %). CONCLUSION: Health personnel showed low proportions of adherence to hand hygiene and use of equipment for specific protection during the COVID-19 pandemic.
