The COVID19 pandemic is one of the most disruptive events on a global scale in recent decades. Its effects on the social and epidemiological level are only just beginning to be known and systematized for the development of public health strategies that allow populations and health systems to recover from the serious impacts they have had to face. Since health effects caused by COVID-19 cannot be attributed solely to the action of the virus, and infections cannot be considered independently of each person's socio-environmental context, pre-existent disparities in health amplified social inequalities and access to care services around the world. Thus, public health strategies require a reformulation of what is understood by disease and, consequently, face appropriate institutional and governmental responses to reverse both: health equity in the outcomes and in care provision. This reformulation of health policies and local implementations need to be based on scientific research to understand the current epidemiological configuration, population health demands and healthcare providers possibilities.
Interdisciplinary and intersectoral collaboration is essential to generate accurate and timely diagnoses according to the place and time where they are presented in order to establish an adequate translation between the Social Sciences research results and the implementation of public health strategies that contribute to solve the barriers to access to health services at all levels of care delivery and improve the quality of care services.
This session encompasses research work experiences that, from the Social Sciences, aim to generate new knowledge about the problems brought about by the COVID19 pandemic or that were deepened by unprecedented stress scenarios both on populations and on health systems. This proposal aims to highlight case studies that address socio-sanitary problems and challenges for health management today in Latin America that include, but are not limited to:
++ Access to healthcare services: the relationship between needs and availability
++Health workers experiences at work during the first years of the pandemic and at present. Good practices, conflictive spaces, institutional violence.
++Implementation of programs / public policy tools
++Health communication strategies and their impact on the population
++Analysis of vaccination processes (Covid19 and others)
This session is part of the Sustainable Development Goals in #3, which aims to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages.
