Translational Health and the Socio-Epidemiological Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic: How Can We Translate Social Research Findings Into Public Health Actions?
The COVID-19 pandemic has been 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.
This session encompasses research work experiences that, from the Social Sciences, aim to generate new knowledge about the problems brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic or that were deepened by unprecedented stress scenarios both on populations and on health systems. This proposal aims to highlight case studies that identified socio-sanitary problems and challenges for health management today in Latin America.
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.
