Abstract

Although disease ecology recognizes the multiplicity of factors involved in the (re)emergence of vector-borne diseases (VBD), it is necessary to strengthen attention to the social context and the social determinants of health. It is essential to integrate a sociocultural approach to health into the biological analysis of VBD ecology. To implement a coherent One Health approach in the prevention and control of VBD, it is pivotal to first understand the social and ecological interactions of the local context. Between October 2021 and June 2022, a social contextual study was made through surveys, semi-structured interviews and participatory activities in 12 localities with diverse ecological, economic and socio-cultural contexts in the Yucatan Peninsula. Through the perceptions of the populations on health and VBD, specifically mosquitoes, we gained knowledge on socio-cultural dynamics that influence people's relationship with pathogens. Local knowledge, management, and control of vectors; interactions with domestic and wild animals; and health-landscape relationship, were identified as factors that determine health-disease processes. This study contributed to a better understanding of local contexts and therefore, to the design of socially pertinent strategies for the reduction of vector-borne diseases risk scenarios in the study sites with an integrated approach.
疾病生态学中的一项健康和社会研究:墨西哥尤卡坦半岛病媒传播疾病的社会背景研究。
尽管疾病生态学认识到病媒传播疾病(VBD)的(再)出现涉及多种因素,但仍有必要加强对社会背景和健康的社会决定因素的关注。必须将健康的社会文化方法纳入病媒生物生态学的生物学分析。要在预防和控制膀胱阴道疾病方面实施协调一致的 "一个健康 "方法,关键是要首先了解当地的社会和生态互动情况。2021 年 10 月至 2022 年 6 月期间,在尤卡坦半岛具有不同生态、经济和社会文化背景的 12 个地方,通过调查、半结构式访谈和参与式活动,开展了一项社会背景研究。通过人们对健康和虫媒传染病(尤其是蚊子)的看法,我们了解了影响人们与病原体关系的社会文化动态。当地对病媒的了解、管理和控制;与家畜和野生动物的互动;以及健康与景观的关系,都被认为是决定健康-疾病过程的因素。这项研究有助于更好地了解当地情况,从而设计出与社会相关的战略,以综合方法降低研究地点的病媒传播疾病风险。

期刊介绍: Social Science & Medicine provides an international and interdisciplinary forum for the dissemination of social science research on health. We publish original research articles (both empirical and theoretical), reviews, position papers and commentaries on health issues, to inform current research, policy and practice in all areas of common interest to social scientists, health practitioners, and policy makers. The journal publishes material relevant to any aspect of health from a wide range of social science disciplines (anthropology, economics, epidemiology, geography, policy, psychology, and sociology), and material relevant to the social sciences from any of the professions concerned with physical and mental health, health care, clinical practice, and health policy and organization. We encourage material which is of general interest to an international readership.
