尽管有必要减缓新型冠状病毒(COVID-19)的传播,但社交距离、就地庇护、限制旅行和关闭主要社区基金会等行动可能会大幅增加地球仪各地的家庭暴力风险。事实上,许多国家已经表明,报告的家庭暴力案件急剧增加。虽然目前的危机没有明确的先例存在于学术文献中,探讨自然灾害对家庭暴力报告的影响,家庭暴力受害者服务的专业人士提供了重要的见解。改善人类福利和动物福利机构之间的合作,扩大社区伙伴关系,并告知公众报告任何虐待问题的重要性,在这个时候都是至关重要的。
Though necessary to slow the spread of the novel Coronavirus (Covid-19), actions such as social-distancing, sheltering in-place, restricted travel, and closures of key community foundations are likely to dramatically increase the risk for family violence around the globe. In fact many countries are already indicating a dramatic increase in reported cases of domestic violence. While no clear precedent for the current crisis exists in academic literature, exploring the impact of natural disasters on family violence reports may provide important insight for family violence victim-serving professionals. Improving collaborations between human welfare and animal welfare agencies, expanding community partnerships, and informing the public of the great importance of reporting any concerns of abuse are all critical at this time.
