Abstract:
:The proposed viewpoint seems important at this time of the COVID-19 pandemic. Indeed, the COVID-19 prevention strategies implemented in the population are based on medical paradigms that generate extremely deleterious social and environmental impacts. Using the occupational health and safety perspective - taking care of myself with recyclables PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) - in place of the medical perspective - taking care of others with disposable PPE - can help to influence and support this important public health reflection.
