Each night is equal. In the TV news, the stories about the antiquated evacuation effort are suicidal, and all must-see portraits of water-hungry dogs.
Are there any images that, if anything, that this is a routine practice, can have a negative effect?
Not enough to change channels. Investigators say that they will obstruct the efforts to evacuate a large number of EU residents, just as soon as the distribution is boosted.
“The girl with the eyes is what many people think it is: ‘Creo que no me voy a poner esta vacuna'”, said Jeanine Guidry, professor at Virginia Commonwealth University, who invested visual communication themes and conducted a survey with 500 people in July.
But it is not only a matter of notice.
The information that is disseminated in social media a giant incorporates images of giant jeringas, Guidry recently explained to the National Assessment Committee of Vacancies, which makes recommendations to federal health officials.
The social networks have the source of the large amount of Incorrect information about vacancies in general, and about covid in particular, designed to help vacancies.
These “image images”, Guidry signaled, “attract more attention” and can be recorded for as long as other types of illustrations.
Jeringas exaggeradamente grandes
The legitimate efforts to ensure the vacancy also can be provoked even to show extremely large women, Guidry indicates, who also insists on public health experts to be careful with his messages.
“If you use the image of a huge jeringa that appears double the size of my head, it’s going to make it clear how big it is,” said Guidry. “Nobody wants to think came the affectation so much that it had a phobia of the eyes“.
Including the intentions to transfer to the people showing letters, like Dr. Anthony Fauci or the President and the Vice President receiving his vacancies against covid and the television can be co-producers, expressed Hillel Hoffmann, consultant and communication writer and Independent.
“Always makes me feel good”, says Hoffmann, who recently wrote about his help to the victims in an article for Medicalbag, an online publication directed to physicians.
“It seems to me that these images should motivate me to make sure that the vacancy is safe and available, but I have no absolute concern about the security of the vacancies”, Hoffmann explains. ” What can not be assimilated, debit me to the water, is the image of algae with a caliber pebble inserted into the deltoid muscle“.
The experts in public health say that it is important to evacuate between 70% and 80% of the public in order to increase what is called collective “rebaño”, which has a sufficient number of people to contain the virus to get rid of it. a vacancy, which greatly limits its propaganda.
But the help of the eyes contributes to some people having doubts about the vacancies.
An analysis of a wide range of studies, in the United States and other countries, on this topic realized by researchers from the University of Michigan shows that between 20% and 30% of the adult students citing preoccupation with the eyes, which from a living age has a phobia that is sufficiently strong to prevent medical attention.
Many health workers also mention the help of the water, following the investigation, published in the Journal of Advanced Nursing in August 2018.
“There is a perception that people who work in hospitals tend to be less likely to suffer, because they are being bullied all the time, for a study that 27% of hospital staff who are not being vaccinated against the diarrheal flu are being called to death in the ring “, dijo Jennifer McLenon, specialist in infection prevention at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, who completed the study while studying for her master’s degree in epidemiology.
Another study found that 18% of health workers in detention centers at large places felt the same way, added McLenon.
Tripanophobia or extreme pain in the eyes
An extreme measure of agitation is the medical procedures involved in technically called tripanophobia, said Jeffrey Geller, president of the Psychiatric Association of Psychiatry.
“Some people avoid eagles by the means of pain, others by the means to dismay”, says Geller. “Y algunas, se desmayan”.
You can have an evolutionary base, said Thea Gallagher, Professor and Director of the Center’s Clinic for Treatment at the University of Pennsylvania. “Evolutionary biology teaches us that having an affiliation object enters our body is not enough to maintain calm,” Gallagher added.
Pero Geller and Gallagher say that barriers created by this medium or phobia can reduce public health messages, along with self-help techniques that people can practice or, in serious cases, the professional assistance of a therapist.
For the millions of professionals who help teenagers, there are ways to help each other, experts say:
- Ponlo in perspective. Be positive about the reasons why you are receiving the vaccine and remember that the pain will be short-lived, like a bump on a toothpick, dijo Thea Gallagher, Director of the Clinic of the Center by the Treatment and Study of the University of Pennsylvania. For those who receive the dose, “have goals to do as the first”, dijo, “and accept that the superaron”.
- Staying with a caregiver. Some vacancy sites allow it. Pregunta.
- Practice deep breathing and other techniques to help maintain calm. Kom algo y bebe agua antes de ir; this reduces the possibility of desmayarse. And you can apply to be inoculated in a reclined position.
- Informal about your victim of preoccupation. “When I read all these words, you can say: ‘Mire, do me gustan las agujas’. The providers of medical attention are acostumbrados a eso”, explains the doctor Georges Benjamin, executive director of the Estadounidense Asociación de Salud Pública.
- No connection has a professional help bus if your time is intense, but you are comfortable with what you need to do. A therapist can use cognitive-conductive techniques or exposure therapy to help, assured Dr. Jeffrey Geller, president of the Estadounidense de Psiquiatría Association.
