Descrizione del progetto
Una ricerca per ottimizzare le future misure di controllo delle epidemie
L’insorgenza della pandemia di COVID-19 ha trasformato la nostra vita e comportato numerose conseguenze indesiderate. Le normative e le politiche introdotte allo scopo di contribuire a controllare la diffusione del virus, ad esempio, hanno determinato una profonda recessione economica. Inoltre, i contatti e le interazioni sociali sono stati interrotti e le persone sono divenute per lo più titubanti a recarsi presso i centri sanitari. A tal riguardo, il progetto SHARE-COVID19, finanziato dall’UE, ha adottato un approccio transdisciplinare e comparativo a livello internazionale per sfruttare le fonti di dati dell’infrastruttura di ricerca di SHARE. L’obiettivo è quello di formulare raccomandazioni che possano rendere le società europee più resilienti, proteggere le popolazioni più vulnerabili degli ultracinquantenni e ottimizzare le future misure di controllo delle epidemie.
Obiettivo
The non-intended consequences of the epidemic control decisions to contain the COVID-19 pandemic are huge and affect the well-being of European citizens in terms of economics, social relationships and health: Europe is experiencing the largest recession since WWII; social contacts have been interrupted; people avoid seeking medical treatment in fear of infection.
The overarching objective of this project is to understand these non-intended consequences and to devise improved health, economic and social policies. In our policy recommendations, we strive to make healthcare systems and societies in the EU more resilient to pandemics in terms of prevention, protection and treatment of the population 50+, a most vulnerable part of the population.
The project aims to identify healthcare inequalities before, during and after the pandemic; to understand the lockdown effects on health and health behaviours; to analyse labour market implications of the lockdown; to assess the impacts of pandemic and lockdown on income and wealth inequality; to mitigate the effects of epidemic control decisions on social relationships; to optimise future epidemic control measures by taking the geographical patterns of the disease and their relationship with social patterns into account; and to better manage housing and living arrangements choices between independence, co-residence or institutionalisation.
The project pursues a transdisciplinary and internationally comparative approach by exploiting the data sources of the SHARE research infrastructure. It covers all EU MS. The project’s team represents medicine, public health, economics and sociology and has worked together since the creation of SHARE. It is experienced in translating data analysis into concrete policy advice. The project’s policy recommendation are targeted at policy makers in the Commission and in national ministries as well as at national and international NGOs and social organisations.
