“…Como consequência desse fenômenos, foi possível desvelar, por meio dos relatos desses homens, a presença de falas que expressaram emoções, sentimentos, atitudes, comportamentos que se revertem em preocupações durante a pandemia (7)(8) . Enfatiza-se que os achados apreendidos representaram o período inicial da quarentena no Brasil, o que permite ilustrar marcos característicos da pandemia no curso inicial, no qual houve expressiva negação por parcela da população, caracterizada pela dificuldade do reconhecimento de ameaças potenciais; e por outra parte, por envolvimento emocional, imaginações e preocupações, como reflexo do processo de assimilação e transição para o segundo ato característico gerenciamento da aleatoriedade -explicação (9) .…”

“…As preocupações que revelaram vulnerabilidade da saúde psicoemocional, no segundo ato de enquadramento da pandemia, foram resultantes da tentativa de explicação da doença, a qual envolve elementos de ordens morais, religiosas/espirituais e racionalistas, atribuindo valor ao fenômeno (9) , o que provoca sentimentos de ansiedade, apreensão, temor, aflição, associados a pensamentos negativos sobre o que possa vir a acontecer no futuro (7)(8) , e permite a compreensão e a adesão às medidas de prevenção e controle recomendadas pelos órgãos de saúde (9) . O surgimento das preocupações é comum na vida humana, todavia, frente a contextos em que ela se apresenta de forma excessiva associada à ausência de atitudes de controle, poderão se tornar não saudáveis e destru-tivas para o indivíduo, desvirtuando-os do presente e pouco colaborando com o preparo para lidar com o futuro (17) .…”

“…Eventos como a pandemia (9) faz emergir medos diversos, o que potencializa as vulnerabilidades sociais (3) , pois a manutenção da ordem pública é ameaçada e os hábitos de vida são significativamente alterados, os quais somam-se a um possível estado de calamidade pública, o que torna o cenário incerto, inseguro, gerador de preocupações e ansiedade, que devem ser merecedoras de atenção pelas autoridades públicas e pelos profissionais de saúde, especialmente da enfermagem, por produzirem cuidado e estarem à frente da rede de atenção à saúde, tal qual dos dispositivos de atenção psicossocial (9,16) .…”

“…No quarto e último ato característico, identificou-se a existência da subsidência e retrospecção (9) , demarcadas pelo fim da pandemia, quando diminui ou cessa a incidência da doença. Tal ato não foi evidenciado neste estudo, uma vez que a pandemia da Covid-19 ainda permanece em curso no país, e somente poderá ser evidenciada em estudos futuros.…”

“…O prolongamento de padrões de sofrimento pode manifestar no indivíduo sentimentos negativos, como a elevação de casos de suicídio, em países como a Colômbia. Além disso, a conjuntura pandêmica denuncia problemática semelhante na Índia e Bangla-desh (9) , o que merece atenção de autoridades governamentais e de saúde, tal qual de profissionais da rede de atenção, como os da categoria de enfermagem.…”

Objective: to understand the vulnerabilities perceived by men in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic. Methods: socio-historical, qualitative study, carried out from the results of online research in all regions of Brazil. The sample consisted of 200 men. The data were processed and analyzed methodologically by the Collective Subject Discourse, supported by the framework of epidemic disease. Results: men perceived the vulnerabilities due to the existence of chronic diseases in them and in the family, the need to maintain a work routine that limits the adoption of social distance, the uncertainties generated by the pandemic, which threatens the maintenance of employment and the professional achievement projects, in addition to the discomfort caused by the interruption of sexual interactions. Conclusion: men’s perceptions of vulnerabilities in the pandemic revolved around health, professionalization, work and sexuality.

Suicide is one of the top 20 leading causes of death worldwide. With the rapid spreading of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) crisis around the world, suicide cases induced by the COVID‐19 pandemic have been reported in many countries. Individuals with suspected and confirmed COVID‐19 infection, frontline healthcare workers, bereaved families, elders, children, and adolescents are vulnerable populations who might be at elevated suicide risk. In this micro‐review, a systematic search through PubMed was performed for a comprehensive investigation of suicide risk factors during the pandemic. On this basis, we put forward considerations and advice for preventing pandemic related suicide, including staying socially connected through online platform or apps during period of quarantine, reducing unemployment, dispelling rumors and misinformation in time, and maintaining evidenced‐based management of psychiatric symptoms. More importantly, early detection and timely intervention of individuals with psychiatric disorders and suicide behaviors will be effective to reduce the number of suicides, with specific measurements of using validated scales to perform regular suicide risk screening, improving the availability of mental health services, and providing appropriate and evidence‐based interventions for individuals in demand. Policy makers, psychiatrists, psychologists, and other healthcare professionals need to collaborate to control the possible suicide events during the COVID‐19 pandemic and future possible crisis.

Despite being on average a relatively happy country, Colombia has a high level of inequality in subjective well-being (SWB). Using Gallup World Poll data for the period from 2010 to 2018, this paper tests the direction and strength of association of a range of objective and subjective factors with SWB and explains differences in SWB across individuals and space. The perceived welfare of the average Colombian is mainly influenced by conditions and expectations related to economic opportunities and education. However, quantile regressions, reveal substantial differences in the domains that matter to those at the bottom and top of the experienced welfare distribution. Standard-of-living improvements, housing affordability, and civic engagement matter more to the most fortunate top 20%, while having education, a job, sufficient income, economic security, and digital connectivity are much more strongly associated with the well-being of the bottom 20%. The life domains that matter more to the unhappiest respondents also explain the majority of the spatial differences in perceived welfare between residents in urban and rural areas as well as core and peripheral regions. Policy actions aimed at closing the gaps in these areas have the potential to increase well-being and reduce inequality in Colombia.
