Resumo: | Reflecting on the natural history of human beings and microbiological agents and getting lost between vernaculars. At one moment we think we are combat agents, at another, we are subjugated to the condition of victim of an invisible executioner of great adaptive capacity. In this interaction that oscillates between the states of parasitism or commensalism, we are not allowed to play the role of cooperator, or to live in a kind of mutualism with different beings that cause different diseases. Because when we allow viruses, bacteria, and other pathogenic microorganisms to replicate, multiply, and spread, neglecting individual and collective orientations, we are feeding a deadly chain of events that will end with the definitive extermination of one of the sides in this war for survival. And day after day we are confronted, provoked, to choose which side to be on. Historically, we have gone through decades and centuries in which, despite the evolution of pharmacological and health areas, we have accepted the condition of victims of pandemics, both regional and global. The irony stands before the pedestal of history and shows us that if on one hand there was the emergence and expansion of intensive care units, the numbers of victims are sometimes expressed by the millions. In this temporal trajectory there were different protagonists: Influenza, Metapneumovirus, Adenovirus, Coronavirus, and, with avidity for children, the Respiratory Syncytial Virus, which again corrupts paradigms, leaving the status of seasonality for other times. These are silent wars that do not choose winners, but flirt with genocide; wars that require empathy for the susceptible and distance from attitudes that prize only vanity and self-centeredness. |

A veces nos consideramos agentes de combate, a veces estamos subyugados a la condición de víctima, de verdugo invisible y de gran capacidad adaptativa. En esta interacción que oscila entre estados de parasitismo o comensalismo, no se nos permite jugar el papel de cooperador, ni vivir en una especie de mutualismo con diferentes seres que provocan diferentes enfermedades. Porque cuando permitimos la replicación, multiplicación y diseminación de virus, bacterias y otros microorganismos patógenos, descuidando las pautas individuales y colectivas, estamos alimentando una nefasta cadena de hechos que terminarán con el exterminio definitivo de uno de los bandos de esta guerra por la supervivencia. Y día tras día somos confrontados, provocados, para elegir de qué lado tomar. Históricamente, hemos atravesado décadas y siglos en los que, a pesar de la evolución farmacológica y de las áreas de salud, aceptamos la condición de víctimas de pandemias, regionales y mundiales. La ironía se alza sobre el pedestal de la historia y nos muestra que si por un lado hubo el surgimiento y expansión de las unidades de cuidados intensivos, las cifras de víctimas a veces se expresan en millones. En esta trayectoria temporal hubo diferentes protagonistas, Influenza, Metapneumovirus, Adenovirus, Coronavirus y, con avidez por los niños, el Virus Sincitial Respiratorio, que nuevamente corrompe paradigmas, dejando para otros tiempos la condición de estacionalidad. Son guerras silenciosas que no eligen vencedores, sino que coquetean con el genocidio. Guerras que exigen empatía por los susceptibles y distanciamiento de actitudes que sólo valoran la vanidad y el egocentrismo.Refletir sobre a história natural dos seres humanos e dos agentes microbiológicos é perder-se entre vernáculos. Ora, julgamo-nos agentes de combate, ora somos subjugados à condição de vítima, de um algoz invisível e de grande capacidade adaptativa. Nessa interação que oscila entre os estados de parasitismo ou comensalismo, não nos é permitido o papel de cooperador, ou de convivermos numa espécie de mutualismo com diferentes seres causadores de diferentes doenças. Porque, quando permitimos a replicação, multiplicação e disseminação de vírus, bactérias e outros microrganismos patogênicos, negligenciando orientações individuais e coletivas, estamos alimentando uma cadeia funesta de acontecimentos que terminará com o extermínio definitivo de um dos lados dessa guerra pela sobrevivência. E cotidianamente somos confrontados e provocados a escolher de que lado ficar. Historicamente atravessamos décadas e séculos em que, a despeito da evolução farmacológica e das áreas da saúde, aceitamos a condição de vítimas de pandemias, regionais e globais. A ironia posiciona-se perante o pedestal da história e demonstra-nos que se de um lado houve o surgimento e a expansão das Unidades de Terapia Intensiva (UTI), as cifras das vítimas por vezes são expressas em milhões. Nessa trajetória temporal houve diferentes protagonistas, como: Influenza, Metapneumovírus, Adenovírus, Coronavírus e, com avidez por crianças, o Vírus Sincicial Respiratório, que novamente corrompe paradigmas, deixando para outras épocas o status da sazonalidade. São guerras silenciosas que não escolhem vencedores, mas flertam com o genocídio. Guerras que requerem empatia pelos suscetíveis e distanciamento de atitudes que prezam unicamente pela vaidade e egocentrismo.Universidade Estadual de Londrina2022-02-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/anh/article/view/4538710.5433/anh.2022v4.id45387Advances in Nursing and Health; Vol. 4 (2022); 16-20Advances in Nursing and Health; Vol. 4 (2022); 16-20Advances in Nursing and Health; v. 4 (2022); 16-202675-1798reponame:Advances in Nursing and Healthinstname:Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)instacron:UELporenghttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/anh/article/view/45387/31220https://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/anh/article/view/45387/31221Copyright (c) 2022 Advances in Nursing and Healthhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLinck Júnior, ArnildoGabani, Flávia Lopes2024-01-24T02:06:01Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/45387Revistahttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/anh/indexPUBhttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/anh/oaianh@uel.br2675-17982675-1798opendoar:2024-01-24T02:06:01Advances in Nursing and Health - Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)false |
