ABSTRACT

Objective: To identify the economic and health aspects in times of quarantine due to COVID-19 in the Peruvian population in 2020. Methods: Quantitative, descriptive, and non-experimental approach. A sample of 1064 Peruvians from all the regions of Peru surveyed from March to April of 2020. The distribution of absolute and relative frequencies was used. Results: Regarding the economic situation, 57.3% presented many or some economic problems to buy necessities, 69.8% has food supplies for less than seven days; 56.8% has enough monetary income for less than two weeks. Likewise, 79.5% has not benefited from a state bond or subsidy and 65.8% declare that the bonds or subsidies are not enough to be able to acquire the basics. Regarding health aspects, 10.5% of those surveyed stated that some of the members of their household had symptoms, and 1.1% say that in their family there is a confirmed carrier of COVID-19. 88.3% have altered the sensation generated by social isolation and 56.4% have felt stress due to social isolation. Conclusion: There are economic problems to acquire food and medicine. The food supply is enough for 7 days, the monetary income is only enough for two weeks, the vouchers are scarce to buy the basics and most of the family has not been benefited by state bonuses. In the aspects of health, most people feel altered by social isolation and stress from quarantine.

INTRODUCTION

The World Health Organization (WHO), after the high cases of contagion of the new coronavirus (COVID-19), has come to describe the outbreak originating in China as a pandemic to increase the political commitment of some countries(1). It is important to mention that the new coronavirus is a particular strain that had not been previously identified in humans; therefore, there is currently limited information on transmission and clinical impact, as well as the best treatment(2).

Globally, the new coronavirus has infected more than 2.8 million people worldwide with a death rate of 204,891 and 812,548 being in the recovery phase. It has an upward trend in infections and the number of deaths. Countries such as the United States, Spain, Italy, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom (in that exact order) are the most affected by the pandemic in terms of the number of confirmed infections and are the only ones where the barrier of 100,000 cases has been exceeded. These countries have overtaken China (the original epicenter of the pandemic) in terms of cases of contagion and deaths(3).

In this sense, Lai C et al. (2020) mentioned that more than 43,000 confirmed cases of COVID-19 have been identified in 28 countries/regions(4). Likewise, Palacios M., et al. (2020) pointed out that the mortality rate for COVID-2019 is not high (about 2-3%), but its rapid spread has led to the activation of protocols for its arrest(5).

At the Latin American level, three weeks ago 0.1% of global cases were noted and rising to 2.4%. Brazil leading this list with 54,043 cases and 3,704 deaths, followed by Peru with 25,331 cases and 700 deaths, and Ecuador with 22,719 cases and 576 confirmed deaths, although more deaths are reported(6).

These cases and increased deaths have led to several analyses or studies on COVID-19 in different countries, for example, Zakaria H et al. (2020) in Saudi Arabia showed that the demographic profile of the participants was between 20 and 39 years of age (61.5%), females (52.9%) and with university education (63.8%), although unemployed (56.3%), with family income greater than 8000 SAR/month, living in the urban region (95.8%), about a third with farm ownership (34.9%) and few had camels (9.6%). Most showed moderate knowledge of coronavirus (85.5%). Age, education, and occupation were significant predictors of low wisdom (p<0.05). The essential source of information was the Ministry of Health, then social networks and community communication(7).

This situation has generated economic, social, and health crises. Social distancing has forced the reduction of the labor forces in the vast majority of economic sectors causing the loss of many jobs, and monetary problems. It does not only cause physical but also psychological health problems(8).

In India, Roy D et al. (2020) found that there is a moderate level of knowledge about COVID-19 infection in the population and adequate knowledge about its preventive aspects. The attitude towards COVID-19 showed the willingness of individuals to follow government guidelines on quarantine and social distancing. The levels of anxiety identified were high. Additionally, more than 80% of people were concerned with thoughts associated with COVID-19 and 72% reported the need to use gloves and disinfectants. Likewise, sleeping difficulties (12.5%), paranoia about the acquisition of COVID-19 infection (37.8%), and anxiety related to social networks (36.4%)(9) were recorded.

In Turkey, Açikgöz Ö and Günay A (2020) revealed that this COVID-19 pandemic has serious adverse effects on employees, customers, supply chains, and financial markets(10).

Likewise, Qiu W, Chu C, Mao A, and Wu J (2018) found that severe acute respiratory syndrome has had an impact in China, causing significant negative effects on health, the economy, and even national and international security(11).

In South Korea, Lee A and Cho J (2016) showed through their research that older workers faced a higher probability of unemployment after the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome outbreak. In particular, they experienced higher involuntary unemployment and a state of underemployment, as well as a reduction in working hours. It was confirmed that the relative vulnerability of the labor market for older workers was higher than for the other age groups after the epidemic outbreak due to the double blow of vulnerability in the medical and labor markets(12).

Defining the coronavirus, it is an enveloped RNA virus that causes respiratory diseases of varying severity, from the common cold to fatal pneumonia. Only 7 coronaviruses are known to cause disease in humans, and only 3 causes respiratory infections. The most current being SARS-CoV2 and is identified as the cause of the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) which started in Wuhan, China, in late 2019 and has spread around the world(13).

On December 31, 2019, the authorities of China reported several cases of pneumonia of unknown etiology to the WHO in Wuhan, a city located in the Chinese province of Hubei. A week later they confirmed that it was a new coronavirus that has been called SARS-CoV-2. Like others in the coronavirus family, this virus causes various clinical manifestations encompassed under the term COVID-19(14).

Cases are currently known in some areas of Thailand, Japan, South Korea, Italy, Spain, Iraq, France, the United States, Mexico, Brazil, Ecuador, Chile, Peru, among other countries. It is important to mention that this virus is transmitted from person to person through droplets that a patient expels when talking, coughing, or sneezing. These can be inhaled by people who are close to the patient and also remain on any type of surface (handrails, tables, pencils, among others) and be touched with the hands.

The virus enters the body when the eyes, nose, and mouth are touched with unwashed hands(15). Also, a person can contract the virus by touching contaminated surfaces and then touching their face (eyes, nose, or mouth). It has been observed that the COVID-19 virus can survive on a surface for several hours, but can be removed with simple disinfectants(16).

People with COVID-19 may have few or no symptoms, although some become seriously ill and die. Symptoms may include fever, cough, and dyspnea. Patients with more severe disease may have lymphopenia and chest imaging findings consistent with pneumonia. The exact incubation time is not known with certainty; however, according to some estimates, it ranges from 1 to 14 days(13).

Singhal T (2020) reported that the condition is mild; but in some (generally the elderly and people with comorbidities) it can lead to pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and multi-organ dysfunction, besides, many people are asymptomatic(17).

Diagnosis is made by special molecular tests, where the virus is demonstrated in respiratory secretions. Common laboratory findings include normal/low white blood cell counts with elevated C-reactive protein (CRP), and chest computed tomography is often abnormal, even in those without symptoms or mild disease(17).

Various preventive measures include handwashing with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after being in a public place or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. If soap and water are not available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Avoiding touching eyes, nose, and mouth without washing hands and preventing direct contact; covering the mouth and nose with a cloth covering when surrounded by people and covering the mouth when coughing and sneezing, either with the inside of the elbow or with disposable tissues, are required measures. In addition to daily cleaning or disinfecting surfaces that are frequently touched or that are dirty(18).

In the review by Adhikari S et al. The main preventive measures were identified as: masks, hand hygiene practices, avoiding public contact, case detection, contact tracing, and quarantine(19).

At the national level, the total population of Peru in 2020 is 32 625 658 million, and the economically active population (from 18 years and over) is made up of approximately 23 052 170 million. The population is directly affected by the coronavirus, either at an economic, labor, and health level(20). The situational reality of this population to COVID-19 has been affected alarmingly, given that the population has different opinions about this pandemic. According to a survey conducted by Datum to 410 people from different regions of the country at the end of March, it is found that 49% believe that the measures established by the Peruvian government will partially control the contagion of COVID-19. 70% of Peruvians have not been able to work from home and only 18% were found to do so, 41% have food supply and money problems, and 64% of the population is concerned about this economic situation and health also 32% found themselves bored. The positive aspect of the measures of social isolation was that they enjoyed their friends and family more (53%)(21). It should be noted that this situation, to date, has changed considerably, since the increase in the number of cases and deaths by the end of April 2020, has transformed opinions on the measures taken by the government; causing a great impact on the economic aspect. Due to the absence of work, which has been causing monetary deficiencies, affecting both the mental and physical health of the Peruvian population. In this analysis, we seek to know, in a detailed way, the economic situation and certain health aspects, according to the point of view that people from different districts and/or regions of the country have based on the new coronavirus, a disease that is causing an important impact on Peruvian society, this to show the situation that Peru is going through from different points of view.

The objective of this article is to identify the economic and health aspects in times of quarantine due to COVID-19 in the Peruvian population in 2020.

METHODS

A study with a quantitative approach, descriptive level, and non-experimental design was conducted. The sample consisted of 1064 Peruvians from all the regions of Peru surveyed from March to April of the year 2020. For the selection of the sample, the finite sample formula was applied, taking into account a total population of 23 052 170 million, an error of 3%, and a prevalence of 0.5%. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were met.

Inclusion criteria:



Exclusion criteria:



The technique used was the personalized online survey and the instrument was a structured questionnaire with closed questions that evaluated the economic aspects and the health situation of the Peruvians who agreed to participate in the study. This instrument is entitled: "Situational analysis of the economic and health aspects in the Peruvian population in times of Covid-19, 2020", which is divided into three parts. The first describes the age and gender of the Peruvian population consisting of 2 questions. The second one corresponding to the economic aspects dimension made up of 9 questions. The third health aspect dimension is made up of 4 questions.

This instrument was validated by expert judgment through the expert appraisal index, obtaining agreement between their appraisals (p <0.05). Likewise, the questions of the instrument were made reliable through a pilot test applied to 30 people, obtaining a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.80 for Likert-type questions, and reliability by Kuder Richardson of 0.82 for dichotomous questions, showing these results very high reliability for both cases, and suitable for your application.

The statistical analysis was carried out using the SPSS v.25 program, using the distribution of absolute and relative frequencies for qualitative variables, also being presented in graphs made with the Microsoft Excel program.

RESULTS

Of a total of 1064 respondents in different regions of Peru, most are between the ages of 30 to 59 years (64.6%), in addition to gender, 66.3% are male and 33.7 % woman.(Figura 1 y 2)

DISCUSSION

Coronaviruses are common infectious agents in many species of animals such as camels, cows, cats, and bats. In rare cases, they can infect people and then spread among them. However, COVID-19 is a new virus that causes a potentially serious respiratory illness in humans and was first discovered in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China. From here, thousands of cases have been detected and in a growing number in other countries. In the early stages, the epidemic doubled in size every 7.4 days. At the end of January, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the outbreak a public health emergency of international concern.

The virus is spreading from person to person by direct contact with respiratory droplets of infected persons transmitted directly or by hands or fomites in contact with the mucosa of the recipient(22).

Peru is facing a quarantine period as a result of the pandemic caused by COVID-19, so it is necessary to know the economic and health status of the population to cope with this stage.

In the economic sphere, the respondents indicate that they agree that they have managed their expenses in a more orderly manner (84.1%) and that they have resources to face the quarantine (47.5%); however, 20.1% disagreed about the economic means. Likewise, few have had financial problems to have necessities (42.7%), although 20.3% have had many financial problems. Food generally lasts less than 7 days (69.8%) and money lasts less than two weeks (56.8%). They also consider that social bonds or programs are not enough to subsist with the family (65.8%), in the last week they have not resorted to loans (64.1%), except for 35.9% who did need it and many have had relatives or friends with money problems (39.4%). A high percentage have not benefited from subsidies or bonuses (79.5%), but 20.5% obtained the subsidy. In contrast, the Diario Gestión report shows that 59% of participants do not have food supply problems and 53% maintain that they will pass this social isolation without problems(21). Açikgöz Ö. and Günay A. study observed that this COVID-19 pandemic has serious effects on employees and financial markets(10). Although the population can support itself economically for a period of quarantine, the money may not be enough if this situation spreads, so it would be essential that the government prevent this context to provide alternative solutions since many have been unemployed or have no bonds.

Concerning personal or family health, a large part of those surveyed referred that no family member has presented symptoms related to COVID-19 (89.5%) and has not had or had contact with a confirmed carrier of COVID-19 (98.9%), although 1.1% have had contact. The feelings generated by the quarantine are generally altered (88.3%) including concern, anxiety, fear, and helplessness. Stress was seen in 56.4%. Likewise, Roy's research detected high levels of anxiety, concern about COVID-19 (80%), difficulty sleeping (12.5%), paranoia about the acquisition of COVID-19 infection (37, 8%), and anxiety related to social networks (36.4%) (9). In the Diario Gestión, the participants indicated feelings such as worry (64%) and stress (31%)(21). For this reason, subjects must engage in recreational activities and breathing and relaxation techniques to reduce anxiety and stress.

When looking at the economic indicators according to the health of the population, it was obtained that the economic aspects such as food available for less than 7 days, having money for less than 2 weeks, low-cost management, and economic problems to buy necessities. These generate stress perhaps because by not being able to work and seeing that the expenses increase when the quarantine is not completed and the population becomes more stressed. The feelings of uncertainty about the resume of activities pre-social isolation. In addition to this, possibly many of the families live from day to day and do not have savings, which affects them even more in the face of the situation.

Limitations

Among the limitations for carrying out the research are the fact of not knowing how to use an application to fill out the survey given that the survey was filled in virtually, the time factor, among others.

CONCLUSION

From the results, it is concluded that there are economic problems to buy food and medicine, that food is enough for only 7 days, money is only enough for two weeks, the vouchers are few to acquire the basics and most of the family has not been benefited by any bonus. In terms of health, most of them have a feeling altered by social isolation and present stress from quarantine.
