Relações entre turismo e saúde: abordagens metodológicas e propostas de ação

Abstract

The need to implement health care policies aimed at the tourist population is evident, with emphasis on infectious diseases and emergency actions to detect outbreaks involving tourists. A tourist-specific surveillance and notification system is also necessary, together with measures to prepare health care institutions to meet the individual demands of this population.

Evaluating probabilistic dengue risk forecasts from a prototype early warning system for Brazil

“…Thus, large and touristic cities are prone to the introduction and maintenance of virus circulation. International mass gathering events have become an important health issue in the recent years ( Abubakar et al, 2012 ) as they create the opportunity for the introduction of new pathogens in a susceptible population, as well as exposing visitors to new and unknown local risks ( Matos and Barcellos, 2010 ).…”

Review of research on tourism-related diseases

“…When categorizing the research on related diseases, this study combined 115 articles, mainly adopting and modifying classification frameworks of infectious diseases and research on tourism-related diseases proposed by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (2020) and Semenza et al (2016), with reference to classifications proposed by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2019) and Matos and Barcellos (2010). The classification is based on the main routes of disease transmission in tourism, so it does not consider pathways such as vertical transmission.…”

“…In the risk management of tourism diseases, each stage is different: before the crisis focuses on prevention and planning to avoid and reduce the harm caused by the disease, during the crisis necessitates focus on mobilization and action, and after the crisis focuses on recovery and reflection (Johnson Tew et al, 2008). No matter at any stage of the crisis, the participation of the government, companies and personnel in tourism and related industries, tourists themselves, and the media is crucial (Matos & Barcellos, 2010).…”

“…Queiroz et al (2004) obtained 552 kg ha -1 N extraction in 120 days of continuous SWW application. Matos et al (2010), when evaluating the extraction capacity of two plant species (Pennisetum purpureum schum and Cynodon spp. ), when grown on HSSF-CWs used in the treatment of dairy wastewater, observed a tendency of increase in TN, TP and TK extraction with the increase in OLR applied.…”
