摘要

我们撰写这篇社论之际,世界开始重新开放,全球214多个国家和地区接种了36.3亿剂新冠肺炎疫苗。在撰写本文时,世界上有10亿人口,即12.9%的人口已经完全接种了疫苗(《我们的数据世界》,2021)。尽管这些都是有希望的事态发展,但随着病例继续攀升,我们还没有完全扭转疫情。全球确诊病例超过1.911亿例,死亡410万例(约翰斯·霍普金斯冠状病毒资源中心,2021)。美国的确诊病例和死亡病例总数分别为3410万例和60.9万例,继续领跑所有国家,但印度和巴西也紧随其后。此外,随着传染性极强的新冠肺炎变种的传播,世界各国正在为第三波、第四波或第五波疫情做好准备。我们还写这篇文章时,美国正接近拜登政府执政6个月的大关,该国从疫情和过去四年的政治动荡中短暂复苏。尽管有迹象表明复苏可能指日可待,但该国仍因新冠肺炎疫情造成的损失以及上届政府对民众身心健康以及国家经济健康和活力的影响而备受打击。尽管如此,经济复苏的不均衡性是显著的(CNN Business,n.d.)。尽管总体就业有所增加,但美国现在的就业岗位比疫情开始前减少了730万个(国会研究服务部,2021)。劳工部估计,超过950万美国工人在新冠肺炎大流行期间失去了工作(劳工统计局,2021年),导致2020年4月失业率达到创纪录的14.8%。尽管2021年6月的总体失业率明显较低(5.9%),但失业率仍高于新冠疫情前3.5%的失业率(国会研究服务,2021)。非裔美国人和拉丁裔工人的失业率继续上升,分别为9.2%和7.4%,突显出少数族裔工人的就业复苏明显放缓(劳工统计局,2021)。预计休闲和酒店业以及零售业将永久失去约300万个工作岗位,而非裔美国人和拉丁裔工人的就业比例过高,这加剧了这一比率。长期失业者——失业六个月或六个月以上的人——现在共有400万人,比疫情前多290万人(劳工统计局,2021)。《2021社区实践杂志》,第29卷,第2期,91-98https://doi.org/10.1080/10705422.2021.1959840

No neighborhood left behind: building an ethos of community interconnections
We write this editorial as the world begins to reopen with the administration of 3.63 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccines in more than 214 countries and territories around the globe. At the time of this writing, 1 billion or 12.9% of the world’s population have been fully vaccinated (Our World in Data, 2021). Although these are hopeful developments, we have not quite turned the corner on the pandemic as cases continue to climb. There are more than 191.1 million confirmed cases and 4.1 million deaths worldwide (Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Resource Center, 2021). The U.S. continues to lead all countries with total confirmed cases and deaths at 34.1 million and 609,000, respectively, but India and Brazil do not trail far behind. Further, countries around the world are bracing for a third, fourth or fifth wave of the pandemic with the spread of highly infectious COVID-19 variants. We also write as the United States nears the 6-month mark of the Biden administration and the country shows fleeting glimpses of recovery from the pandemic and the past four years of political turmoil. While there are signs that recovery may be on the horizon, the country is still reeling from the toll of the COVID-19 pandemic and the previous administration on the physical and mental well-being of the population as well as the economic health and vitality of the nation. Nonetheless the unevenness of the economic recovery is marked (CNN Business, n.d.). Despite gains in overall employment, the United States has 7.3 million fewer jobs now than the country had before the start of the pandemic (Congressional Research Services, 2021). The Department of Labor estimates more than 9.5 million U.S. workers lost their jobs during the COVID-19 pandemic (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2021), leading to a record 14.8% unemployment rate in April 2020. Although the overall unemployment rate in June 2021 was markedly lower (5.9%), unemployment remains higher than the pre-COVID rate of 3.5% (Congressional Research Services, 2021).
