摘要

巴西是受 COVID-19 影响最严重的国家之一。通过实施严厉的非药物干预措施，本可以避免许多死亡。尽管国家以下各级当局支持留守要求和掩盖任务，但总统却积极予以反对。反对采取措施减少病毒传播的政治压力以及将短期经济后果放在首位的做法会产生什么后果？文章表明，在对博尔索纳罗投票较多的辖区内，将卫生问题的责任推卸给国家以下各级政府、将重点放在尽量减少经济衰退上的策略，恶化了 COVID-19 的结果（以病例和死亡人数衡量）。

A Farewell to Arms: Brazilian Politics and Blame Avoidance during the COVID-19 Pandemic

Brazil was one of the countries most affected by COVID-19. Many deaths could have been avoided by implementing severe non-pharmaceutical interventions. Despite support for stay-at-home requirements and masking mandates from subnational authorities, the president actively pushed back against it. What are the consequences of the political pressures against measures to mitigate virus dissemination and the utmost prioritisation of short-term economic consequences? The article demonstrates that the strategies of shifting blame for the subnational authorities on health issues, focusing on the minimisation of economic downturn, worsened COVID-19 results, measured by cases and deaths, in jurisdictions that voted heavily for Bolsonaro.
