Abstract

Beginning January of 2020, COVID-19 cases detected in Arctic countries triggered government policy responses to stop transmission and limit caseloads beneath levels that would overwhelm existing healthcare systems. This review details the various restrictions, health mandates, and transmission mitigation strategies imposed by governments in eight Arctic countries (the United States, Canada, Greenland, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Iceland, and Russia) during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, through 31 January 2021s31 January 2021. We highlight formal protocols and informal initiatives adopted by local communities in each country, beyond what was mandated by regional or national governments. This review documents travel restrictions, communications, testing strategies, and use of health technology to track and monitor COVID-19 cases. We provide geographical and sociocultural background and draw on local media and communications to contextualise the impact of COVID-19 emergence and prevention measures in Indigenous communities in the Arctic. Countries saw varied case rates associated with local protocols, governance, and population. Still, almost all regions maintained low COVID-19 case rates until November of 2020. This review was produced as part of an international collaboration to identify community-driven, evidence-based promising practices and recommendations to inform pan-Arctic collaboration and decision making in public health during global emergencies.

新冠肺炎大流行第一年北极国家的公共卫生限制、指令和措施。
从2020年1月开始,在北极国家检测到的新冠肺炎病例引发了政府的政策反应,以阻止传播,并将病例数量限制在足以使现有医疗系统不堪重负的水平之下。本审查详细介绍了八个北极国家(美国、加拿大、格陵兰、挪威、芬兰、瑞典、冰岛和俄罗斯)政府在新冠肺炎大流行的第一年至2021年1月31日至2021年2月31日期间实施的各种限制、卫生规定和传播缓解战略。我们强调每个国家的地方社区通过的正式协议和非正式倡议,超出了地区或国家政府的授权范围。这篇综述记录了旅行限制、通信、检测策略以及使用卫生技术来追踪和监测新冠肺炎病例。我们提供地理和社会文化背景,并利用当地媒体和通讯,了解新冠肺炎的出现和预防措施对北极土著社区的影响。各国的病例率因地方协议、治理和人口而异。尽管如此,直到2020年11月,几乎所有地区的新冠肺炎病例率都保持在较低水平。这项审查是国际合作的一部分,旨在确定社区驱动、循证的有希望的做法和建议,为全球紧急情况下的泛北极合作和公共卫生决策提供信息。
