During the unprecedented times caused by the novel coronavirus disease 2019, there is rapidly evolving information and guidance. However, a focus must also be on proper and effective risk communication. This is especially the case during pandemics that have high rates of infection, significant morbidity, lack of therapeutic measures, and rapid increases in cases, all of which apply to the current coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. A consequence of poor risk communication and heightened risk perception is hoarding behavior, which can lead to lack of medications and personal protective equipment. One potential way to ensure appropriate risk communication is using social media channels, and ensuring an ongoing consistent media presence. Another important step is to include all stakeholders including members of the allergy community in broader public health messaging. As we continue to face unprecedented times in the allergy community, an understanding and appreciation of risk communication will be essential as we communicate with, and inform, our patients, and our colleagues, moving forward.
在由 2019 年新型冠状病毒病引起的前所未有的时期,信息和指导在迅速发展。然而,还必须关注适当和有效的风险沟通。在感染率高、发病率高、缺乏治疗措施和病例迅速增加的大流行期间尤其如此,所有这些都适用于当前的 2019 年冠状病毒病大流行。风险沟通不佳和风险感知增强的后果是囤积行为,这可能导致药物和个人防护设备短缺。确保适当的风险沟通的一种潜在方法是利用社交媒体渠道,并确保媒体持续存在。另一个重要步骤是将包括过敏社区成员在内的所有利益攸关方纳入更广泛的公共卫生信息传递。随着我们继续在过敏社区面临前所未有的时期,了解和重视风险沟通将是至关重要的,因为我们将与我们的患者和同事进行沟通,并为他们提供信息,这将是我们前进的方向。
