An investigation into the health of people in Bristol flooded in July 1968 was made by means of a controlled survey and a study of mortality rates. There was a 50% increase in the number of deaths among those whose homes had been flooded, with a conspicuous rise in deaths from cancer.Surgery attendances rose by 53%, referrals to hospital and hospital admissions more than doubled. In all respects the men appeared less well able to cope with the experience of disaster than the women.
通过对照调查和死亡率研究,对1968年7月布里斯托尔受洪水影响人群的健康状况进行了调查。家中被洪水淹没的人群死亡人数增加了50%,癌症死亡人数显著上升。外科就诊人数增加了53%,转诊至医院和住院人数增加了一倍多。在各个方面,男性应对灾难的能力似乎都不如女性。
