摘要

传统上,在印度,随地吐痰是一个公认的“社会文化问题”。随着新冠肺炎疫情在印度日益严重,这是一个主要的公共卫生问题,因为有证据表明,痰可能是容易传播的新冠肺炎病毒颗粒的潜在宿主。尽管这是一个重要的公共卫生问题,也与其他几种传染病有关,尤其是结核病(除了新冠肺炎),但这种不分青红皂白的行为没有得到应有的政策关注。国家和地方政府为控制这一问题而采取的强制措施以及社区层面的大规模审慎措施都非常令人沮丧。因此,我们的目标是提出短期和长期行动的政策建议,以优先考虑这一问题。该评论主张国家一级的政策制定者和公共卫生机构立即关注这一问题,共同应对并防止(减轻)由此产生的任何额外的公共卫生痛苦。关键词:公共随地吐痰,新冠肺炎,传播,政策,印度,无烟烟草。

Public Spitting During Pandemic Times in India
Traditionally the act of public spitting has been a putative “socio-cultural problem” in India. With the growing intensity of COVID-19 pandemic in India, it is of a predominant public health concern as evidence indicates sputum to be the potential reservoir of COVID-19 virus particles which could be easily transmitted. Despite being a significant public health issue, which is also linked to several other communicable diseases most notably tuberculosis (apart from COVID-19), this indiscriminate behavior has not received the due policy attention warranted. National and sub-national government enforcements and community level mass prudence to control this issue have been significantly dismal. Therefore, we aim to propose policy recommendations for short-term and long-term actions to prioritize this issue. The commentary advocates for immediate attention from national level policymakers and public health agencies to collectively respond to this issue and prevent (mitigate) any additional public health sufferings arising from this. Keywords: Public spitting, COVID-19, transmission, policy, India, smokeless tobacco.
