The proposed viewpoint seems important at this time of the COVID-19 pandemic. Indeed, the COVID-19 prevention strategies implemented in the population are based on medical paradigms that generate extremely deleterious social and environmental impacts. Using the occupational health and safety perspective - taking care of myself with recyclables PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) - in place of the medical perspective - taking care of others with disposable PPE - can help to influence and support this important public health reflection.
在 COVID-19 大流行期间，提出这一观点似乎很重要。事实上，在人群中实施的 COVID-19 预防策略基于产生极其有害的社会和环境影响的医学模式。采用职业健康和安全视角——用可回收的个人防护设备（PPE）照顾自己——而不是采用医疗视角——用一次性 PPE 照顾他人——可以帮助影响和支持这一重要的公共卫生反思。
