Irrationality munguva yaCoronavirus

Iyi posvo yakanyorwa naMark J. Blechner, Ph.D.

Epidemics ndeye zvipenyu, zvakadaro zvine mhedzisiro pane yedu psychology uye hukama hwehukama. Kutya kunogona kukurudzira vanhu kuti vafunge zvakajeka, asi zvinogona zvakare kuburitsa kusagadzikana kusingaite.

Takazviona izvi makore makumi mana apfuura pakatanga denda reAIDS. Panguva iyoyo, ini ndaive mudiki psychoanalyst, ndichidzidza kuti psyche yemunhu inobatwa sei nemasimba asina musoro. Denda reAIDS rakaratidza kuratidzwa kwakajeka kwemauto iwayo, achidzidzisa zvidzidzo zvinogona kubatsira mune yanhasi yeCOVID-19 dambudziko.

Kutya Asingazivikanwe

Chekutanga kuita kudenda nyowani kutya, kunokudzwa nekushaikwa kwezivo. Chii chakanga chiri kukonzera AIDS kupararira? Kwakabva kupi? Zvaigona sei kurapwa? Pasina chokwadi chakavimbika, vanhu vakagadzira zvinhu, vachipomera mapoka emadzinza, zvinodhaka, kana mafungiro asina kunaka.

Kumwe kusafunga kuri pamusoro pekuti ndiani ari panjodzi. Zvakanakisa, "hausi ini." Ini ndinonzwa ndakachengeteka kugadzira nyaya inonongedza njodzi kune mumwe munhu. NeAIDS, pakanga paine kutaura nezve "mapoka ane njodzi" - sevane varume vane ngochani uye maHaiti - zvichireva kuti vachena vanoita bonde. Vakanga vasina. Na COVID-19, isu takatanga kunzwa kuti chete avo makumi matanhatu uye vakuru kana avo vatove vanorwara nemamwe mamiriro vanoda kunetseka. Asi pane mitsara yevanhu vane makore makumi matatu nemakumi mana avo vari panjodzi nekufa.

Mari Haigone Kukununura

Njodzi inounza kudzivirirwa kwesimba rose mune vamwe vanhu, vanofunga, "Ini ndakafuma, ndine simba, uye ndine simba, saka handifanire kunetseka." Vanhu vakapfuma vari kubhururuka kunze kweguta mundege dzakavanzika uye vachishandisa mari yakawanda kwazvo vachiunganidza chikafu uye zvekushandisa. Mari nesimba zvinodzivirira kubva kuhutachiona hwe COVID-19 here?

Roy Cohn, chipangamazano kumutungamiriri wedu wazvino, akashandisa simba rake kutanga kwechirwere kuwana mishonga yekuyedza uye kuviga chokwadi chekuti aive neAIDS. Akafa neAIDS muna 1986 zvakadaro.

KuIran neItari, vatungamiriri vehurumende vakatotapukirwa. Mumwe seneta weU.S. ane hutachiona, uye dzimwe nhengo dzeCongress dzinozvisarudzira vega. Mukurumbira, simba, uye mukurumbira hazvizopa dziviriro.

Kukundikana Kwehutungamiriri uye Kubudirira

Munguva yedenda, vatungamiriri vehurumende vanofanirwa kuve muenzaniso wekuenzanisira kufunga uye kunzwira tsitsi, vachinyatsoteerera vasingavhunduke. Kuvimbiswa kwenhema kana kuramba kukura kwengozi kunongoita kuti zvinhu zviwedzere.

Mutungamiri Reagan haana kutaura nezveAIDS kusvikira zviuru gumi zvevanhu vekuAmerica vafa nazvo. Kuramba kwekutanga kwaPresident Trump, kuchiteverwa netarisiro yake yekuwedzera, kuchawedzera sezvo mamiriro ari kuramba achiwedzera. Kusiyana neizvi, kunyeverwa kwakasununguka, kwechokwadi kwaGerman Chancellor Angela Merkel naGavhuna weNew York Andrew Cuomo vari kukurudzira kushinga uye kuvimba.

Uprofita Hwechokwadi

Njodzi huru dzinounza chishuwo chisina musoro-kuzadzikiswa. Isu tese tinoda kutenda kuti mushonga uri padyo nekona, saka isu tinobata pane yega yega yakanaka shandi yeruzivo, kunyangwe iri nhema. Muna 1984, pakanga paine mushonga mutsva weAIDS unoshamisa, HPA-23. Rock Hudson akabhururukira kuParis nekuda kwayo; hazvina kushanda uye zvakaita kuti varwere vazhinji vawedzere. Paunonzwa nhasi kuti chloroquine kana zvimwe zvinodhaka zvinorapa COVID-19, edza kusanyanya kufara. Mushonga uchauya, asi kwete pasati pave paine runyerekupe rwenhema.

Migumisiro Yakanaka?

Hapana munhu anoda zvehosha, asi ivo vanogona kupedzisira vaine zvinowoneka munharaunda. Pamberi kwedenda reAIDS, maNational Institutes of Health aive nenzira dzinononoka uye dzisina basa dzekuyedza mishonga mitsva. Muna 1988, Larry Kramer akaburitsa "Tsamba Yakavhurika kuna Anthony Fauci," achimuti "benzi risingagoni." Zvaireva, asi zvakawana mhedzisiro.

Dr Fauci, avo vachiri pamberi pekubata madenda muAmerica, vanobvuma kuti vanoita zveAIDS vakachinja maitiro eAmerica ekuyedza nekuburitsa mishonga. Vakuru vevanhu vakaita saElizabeth Taylor vakashandisawo simba ravo. AIDS yakaburitsa pfungwa yenharaunda pakati peavo vaitambudzika, uye takaona zviito zvinoshamisa zvemutsa uye nerudo rusina kuzvipira.

Denda reAIDS rakachinja nzanga yedu. Yakapa kuzivikanwa kune ngochani sevanhu vane nharaunda ine hanya. Yakatsemura nzanga yedu yekusagadzikana uye nekuvandudza hutano hwedu.

Iyo COVID-19 denda, kunyangwe ichirwadza, inotungamira mukuvandudza nyika yedu? Izvo zvinogona kutimutsa isu kune isina hanya nzira yatakabata nayo runyararo runyararo uye kusaenzana kwemaitiro edu ehutano. Zvinogona kutitungamira kuti tidanane zvirinani, kunyangwe paine misiyano. Kuita kusinganzwisisike hakuendi, asi kana tikazviziva, tinokwanisa, kana tichiedza, kushandisa njere dzedu uye kuda kwedu kubatsirana.
