商品描述
Focused on the United States, this book summarizes the secondary impacts of COVID-19 due to the increased use of technology. Establishing the global response of social distancing, mandates for non-essential business, and working from home, the book centers on the disparate guidance provided domestically at the state and local levels. Marginalized populations are highlighted to identify areas where technology facilitated access and reach or contributed to difficulties catapulted by digital literacy or digital access issues. To explain how people may have been empowered or left behind due to a new and unique reliance on technology, this book is structured based on the social determinants of health domains. Specifically, this book explains how technology was an umbrella domain that impacted every aspect of life during the pandemic including access, use, adoption, digital literacy, and digital equity, as well as privacy and security concerns. Given this book's focus on the impacts to marginalized populations, there is a thread throughout the book related to the use of technology to perpetuate hate, discrimination, racism, and xenophobic behaviors that emerged as a twin pandemic during COVID-19. Part I explains the defining differences between primary and secondary impacts, as well as the unique guidelines adopted in each state. Part II of the book is focused on specific domains, where each chapter is dedicated to topics including economic stability through employment, education, healthcare, and the social/community context through access to services. Part III focuses on unique technological considerations related to COVID-19, such as mobile health-related apps and privacy or security issues that may have posed barriers to the adoption and use of technology. Finally, the book ends with a conclusion chapter, which explicitly explains the advantages and disadvantages of technology adoption during COVID-19. These exposed benefits and challenges will have implications for policies, disaster management practices, and interdisciplinary research.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書以美國為焦點，總結了COVID-19疫情對科技使用增加所帶來的次級影響。書中討論了全球對社交距離、非必要業務的限制和居家工作的回應，並著重於國內各州和地方層面提供的不一致指導。書中特別強調了被邊緣化的人群，以確定科技在數位素養或數位接觸問題所引發的困難中，如何促進了訪問和覆蓋範圍，或者導致了困難。為了解釋人們在對科技的新型依賴中可能被賦予權力或被拋棄的情況，本書根據社會健康決定因素的領域結構進行了安排。具體而言，本書解釋了科技是一個影響疫情期間生活的各個方面的綜合領域，包括訪問、使用、採用、數位素養和數位公平，以及隱私和安全問題。鑑於本書關注的是邊緣化人群的影響，全書貫穿了一條關於科技使用來延續仇恨、歧視、種族主義和仇外行為的線索，這些行為在COVID-19期間成為了一個雙重疫情。第一部分解釋了主要和次級影響之間的定義差異，以及各州採取的獨特指南。本書的第二部分專注於特定領域，每一章都專門討論經濟穩定、教育、醫療保健和社會/社區環境通過服務訪問等主題。第三部分則聚焦於與COVID-19相關的獨特技術考慮因素，例如移動健康相關應用程式以及可能對科技採用和使用構成障礙的隱私或安全問題。最後，本書以結論章結束，明確解釋了COVID-19期間科技採用的優點和缺點。這些暴露出的利益和挑戰將對政策、災害管理實踐和跨學科研究產生影響。
