Abstract

In 2020, COVID-19 affected every aspect of life around the globe. The spread of SARS-CoV-2 through travel led to lockdowns, travel bans and border closures, crippling the tourism industry. Without tourists, there would be no tourism industry-and no travel medicine. Therefore, scholars started to research the human aspect of tourism immediately to develop strategies for economic recovery. The resulting insights are useful for travel medicine not only to see how tourism dealt with a medical crisis but also to understand travellers better who may be seeking health advice during and after a pandemic.This article presents tourism research of 2020 covering risk perception and travel intentions including mass-gatherings, the use of technology to protect from infection, impacts on tourism workers, residents' reactions to potentially infected travellers, discrimination, and racism. A potential fork in the road to tourism's future may have implications for travel health practitioners. Research recommendations conclude the paper. Understanding the industry response during the early days of panic and uncertainty may help prepare not only appropriate guidelines for travellers but also clearer instructions for tourism, transportation, and hospitality in anticipation of the next pandemic.

COVID-19:在大流行病期间,旅游医学如何从旅游业对人的关注中获益?
2020 年,COVID-19 影响了全球生活的方方面面。通过旅行传播的 SARS-CoV-2 导致了封锁、旅行禁令和边境关闭,使旅游业陷入瘫痪。没有游客,就没有旅游业,也就没有旅游医药。因此,学者们立即开始研究旅游业的人文因素,以制定经济复苏战略。本文介绍了 2020 年的旅游业研究,内容涉及风险认知和旅行意向,包括大规模集会、使用技术防止感染、对旅游从业人员的影响、居民对可能受感染的游客的反应、歧视和种族主义。旅游业未来可能出现的岔路口可能会对旅游保健从业人员产生影响。本文最后提出了研究建议。在恐慌和不确定的早期,了解旅游业的反应不仅有助于为旅客制定适当的指南,还有助于为旅游业、运输业和酒店业制定更明确的指示,以应对下一次大流行。

期刊介绍: Tropical Diseases, Travel Medicine and Vaccines is an open access journal that considers basic, translational and applied research, as well as reviews and commentary, related to the prevention and management of healthcare and diseases in international travelers. Given the changes in demographic trends of travelers globally, as well as the epidemiological transitions which many countries are experiencing, the journal considers non-infectious problems including chronic disease among target populations of interest as well as infectious diseases.
