新冠病例分析揭示女性的护理角色和高易感性

Nursing Role Results in Higher Susceptibility of Women: Analyzing Family Clusters during COVID-19 Outbreaks

  • 摘要: 以深圳市家庭聚集性新冠确诊病例为例,按照出现症状的时间早晚划分确定一二代病例,通过对比理论数值模型和家庭结构网络计算出的家庭聚集性病例中二代病例理论值和实际观测值,发现女性在家庭聚集性病例中的二代病例比例显著高于男性。该文定量化支持了“女性在家庭环境中承担更多护理角色”的假设,统计上显示了在以居家隔离为主的防控措施要求下,其感染新冠肺炎的可能性将高于男性。最后给出了可降低女性感染风险的若干建议。

     

    Abstract: This article collected the information on family cluster confirmed cases of COVID-19 from Shenzhen Municipal Health Commission as an example. The first and second generations cases were identified according to the time of symptoms onset. Comparing the theoretical value of the second-generation cases calculated by the numerical model and the family structural network model with the actual value, the article found that the proportion of the second-generation cases in family cluster cases of females were significantly higher than that of males. The quantitative results support the hypothesis that women play the major part of the nursing role at home, and statically suggest that women were in higher susceptibility than men while implementing home quarantine as the main epidemic control measurement. Based on the current situation, the article listed out some advices to reduce the infection risk of women at the end.
