A previous editorial by the Editor-in-Chief discusses public health and steps towards recovery from the COVID-19 disaster. In addition to the current public health disasters, and multiple disasters such as earthquakes, typhoons and hurricanes, worldwide recession, and global morbidity and mortality, the authors would like to highlight the need for responses to deal with the well-being of the homeless population due to their condition and vulnerability in the society. People who are experiencing homelessness are considered vulnerable and "preferential options for the homeless" must be considered.
主编之前的一篇社论讨论了公共卫生以及从新冠疫情灾难中恢复的步骤。除了当前的公共卫生灾难，还有地震、台风和飓风等多重灾难、全球经济衰退以及全球发病率和死亡率，作者们想强调，由于无家可归者的状况及其在社会中的脆弱性，应对他们的福祉问题很有必要。经历无家可归的人被视为弱势群体，必须考虑“对无家可归者的优先选择”。
