Covid19 Isolation In The Family

Covid19 isolation in the family

The importance of this project is to know more about social isolation by COVID-19 and the family, both in how it affects each of the members of it, at the same time it is emphasized that it is necessary to prevent;Although each one reacts differently from stressful situations, an infectious pandemic such as the one we suffer implies social distancing, quarantine and isolation, so people can experience anxiety, concern or fear in relation to: the concern of being possiblevector and spread others, including nearby people, also the boredom and frustration of not being connected to the usual routine of their life. On the other hand, this is also reflected in statistical tables that have the present work.

First we should know that, according to (Badia, 2016) loneliness and social isolation are emerging health conditions in the elderly population, especially in widowed, hyper frequents and chronic problems and depression. Loneliness is the subjective sensation of having less affection and closeness of what is desired in the intimate or relational sphere. On the other hand, social isolation is the objective situation of having minimal contacts with other people. Its contribution to increased morbidity and mortality is comparable to that of other well -known risk factors on those we act daily from primary care teams.

According to a study published in the, loneliness and social isolation are twice more harmful to physical and mental health than obesity: “The lack of social connection increases health risks as well as smoking 15 cigarettes per day orHave an alcohol consumption disorder, ”explains the doctor and professor of Psychology and Neuroscience.

For his part (Association, 2019) he pointed out before the new coronavirus in Wuhan, China that social isolation could end our lives. Due to this article, the situation is very worrying since as much as the isolation and exit are two variants that we must choose from and most opt for the first, but this also affects us emotionally and physical as we talked before, it must be emphasizedThat many of the situations in which each family is taken into account is different and this is first due to the economy of each one and that a stability of it can be achieved so much in the home, usually without the virus there are family conflictsFor the same reason, but the COVID-19 has only aggravated it more. "Chronic loneliness is more likely when people do not have emotional, mental and financial resources to exit and meet their social needs or lack a social circle that can provide these benefits," reports the aforementioned site.

Also (Khullar, 2020) mentions that, “we have evolved to be social creatures, throughout the history of humanity, people have been in family structures, people have been in groups, we have evolved to yearn for and trust that interaction with that interaction withOther human beings. So, when we don’t have that, it is a great emptiness in the way we do the human. This is something that has been connected to what we are as beings ".

In our opinion, it is very close to what we have mentioned before with the economic side as soon as we failedFrom home: the study, work and many others. But in reality, even if we have the physical effort worn at home, it does not compare to feel free and live our routine. We must take into account the news we receive daily is something that affects us in the way we feel.

The anxiety generated by the coronavirus has to do much in the dissemination of news and the number of people who look. There are even studies that detail the relationship between what we see on our electronic or mobile devices and the relationships caused by these communications.

They saw the news bulletin or neutral. “What was most interesting was the effect to see the negative news on people’s concerns. We ask each participant to tell us what their main concern was at that time, and then we asked them to happen in this concern during the structured interview. We discovered that the people who had seen the negative news bulletin spent more time thinking and talking about their concern and were more likely to stay under stress for their concern than the people of the other two groups, ”he explained in his portal.

Actually, what the doctor says, is very thinking and true. Most Ecuadorian families decide not. Anxiety as such makes us think that of not knowing or knowing about the subject, it is so great that we often relate it to the dream and boredom we say.

According to the Ministry of Health, it informs us that many of the effects we have or we will feel in these long periods at home are: physicists such as fatigue and fatigue, change of food patterns, weight gain for inactivity, feeling of physical slowness andmental. Sleep cycle change. Emotional such as boredom and boredom, discouragement to carry out common activities, irritability and anger, alert to physical signs about the possibility of getting infected, a feeling of not being doing something productive, feeling of injustice, sadness for not being able to carry out the desired activities. This and many more effects would be considered to be in isolation with the family, but as mentioned before each family has their way of feeling them due to many factors such as the economic.

On the other hand (Spanish, 2020) with isolation measures, household tension grows, and the risk of family violence increases for women, says the UN. “Other outbreaks of diseases, such as those of Ebola and Zika, left us the experience that these events divert the resources of the services that women need, despite the increase in the charge of care and losses in the media paid for remunerated livelihoods ofWomen, ”says the UN Women, such as contraception and pre and postnatal care. The same could happen to COVID-19, they warn.

Another public health crisis is also added to the damage of the new coronavirus: there are more and more data that indicate that domestic abuse is behaving as an opportunistic infection, thriving in the conditions created by the pandemic. For (Hester, 2019), who studies abusive relationships, the reasons for assuming that the restrictions imposed against the propagation of the virus would have this effect were always there. Domestic violence always increases when families spend more time together, such as Christmas and summer holidays, he said. So it could be another effect on this situation than attached to the social isolation that Ecuador is happening.

Now, with families in confinement worldwide, telephone attention lines constantly sound with complaints of abuse, which has caused governments to try to attend a crisis that, according to experts, should have seen come. On April 5, the United Nations called for urgent actions to combat the global increase in domestic violence. However, in general, governments have failed to prepare to respond to the new opportunities generated by new public health measures so that abusers terrorize their victims. Now, many governments are having difficulty offering assistance to those at risk.

In addition to physical violence, which is not present in all abusive relationships, common abuse tools include isolation of friends, family and jobs;constant surveillance;Strict and detailed rules of behavior and restrictions on access to basic needs such as food, clothing and health facilities.

In the previous paragraph, it only tells us how home rules make us make or make decisions about our behavior with our relatives, such as the fact that we must use less object or stop eating what we used to in our routineBecause of the position that we should save in every way not only in food and this causes different behaviors in family individuals.

The isolation has also broken support networks, making it even more difficult for victims to ask for help or escape. In Europe, several countries seem to have followed the same sinister path: first, governments impose confinement without sufficient provisions for victims of domestic abuse. Approximately ten days later, relief calls increase, which unleashes public outrage. It is only at that time when governments are hurried to improvise solutions. These cases in other countries, only give us a perspective that could happen to us or perhaps it began to happen and try to solve in time or simply prevent, already the situation is very serious and Ecuador is one of the countries that countsMore with these problems.

For this, Ecuador would already report more than 580 calls for domestic violence has received ECU911, in the two weeks of isolation by Coronavirus, indicates the news of the universe.

Our last point to play in this project is COVID-19 and mental health. As commented before and the postulates left by some doctors and psychologists about it because the concerns and anxiety about COVID-19 and their impact can become overwhelming and social distancing makes everything even more complex due to all factorsmentioned above and situations in which families can be. The Covid-19 pandemic has probably changed a lot in which thousands of families live, and that has brought uncertainty, altered routines, economic pressures and social isolation. Maybe these or the concern of getting sick, how long the pandemic will last and what will the future bring us. Excess information, rumors and erroneous information can make you feel without control and make it clear what to do. During the pandemic perhaps or perhaps most feel stress, anxiety, fear, sadness and loneliness. Mental health disorders may worsen, including anxiety and depression as main. Through a quick consultation, a series of care measures have been prepared since they are good for physical and mental health, and they can take control in life: the first would be to take care of our body in this would cover enough sleep, participate regularly in physical activity, eat healthy, avoid tobacco, alcohol and drugs, limit the tempo in front of the screens, relax and recharge the batteries. Then to take care of our mind we would have to reduce stress triggers: how, keep your normal routine, limit exposure to the media, stay busy, concentrate on positive thoughts, use moral values or your spiritual life as support, establish prioritiesAnd finally connect with other people. 

In this way and with the aforementioned measures, an improvement could be achieved in the effects that social isolation could cause by COVID-19 in family relationships and thus have a much better coexistence with nearby people and not to aggravate the situation moreof what Ecuador now lives.
