卡特里娜飓风的破坏性影响使新奥尔良的拉丁裔人口构成发生了动态变化。这篇文章的重点是一种特别有害的快克可卡因吸烟模式,它与许多社会和健康后果有关。利用快速评估方法,对新奥尔良的52名拉丁裔移民日工进行了深入的定性访谈。调查结果显示,蓬勃发展的毒品市场促进和维持了吸食快克毒品的模式,包括开始吸食和每日吸食的时间。此外,由于日工的边缘地位而产生的孤立感和不断遭受伤害的感觉被描述为导致这种使用的原因。这一定性分析揭示了社会进程和背景因素是如何在灾后背景下促进拉丁裔日工使用可卡因的。这项研究对艾滋病毒和其他血源性病原体的传播具有重要的公共卫生意义。
The devastating effects of Hurricane Katrina have contributed to a dynamic demographic shift in the Latino composition of New Orleans. This article focuses on a particularly deleterious pattern of crack cocaine smoking associated with numerous social and health consequences. Utilizing a rapid assessment methodology, in-depth qualitative interviews were conducted with 52 Latino immigrant day laborers in New Orleans. Findings reveal that the presence of a flourishing drug market has facilitated and maintained patterns of crack use including initiation and periods of daily use. Moreover, feelings of isolation and constant exposure to victimization due to day laborers’ marginal status are described as contributing to this use. This qualitative analysis reveals how social processes and contextual factors contribute to crack use among Latino day laborers in a post-disaster context. This study has important public health implications in the spread of HIV and other blood borne pathogens.
