Abstract Concerns about infectious disease in mega-shelters following hurricanes should be a top priority. The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated the challenge of implementing standard evacuation and sheltering procedures for hurricanes during an outbreak of a respiratory disease and the lessons learned from the 2020 hurricane season must be applied to future response efforts. In this article, we examine the current risk framing for hurricane preparedness and response utilizing Prospect Theory. We also examine how the COVID-19 pandemic has complicated this traditional framing and offer a new framework for which to provide adequate sheltering following a hurricane, while minimizing the risk of respiratory disease to those seeking shelter. We argue that such a framework is necessary to protect American citizens in future hurricane seasons.

在 COVID-19 之后重塑风险

摘要 飓风过后，对大型避难所中的传染病的关注应该是重中之重。COVID-19 大流行证明了在呼吸道疾病爆发期间实施飓风标准疏散和避难程序的挑战，必须将 2020 年飓风季节的经验教训应用于未来的应对工作。在本文中，我们利用前景理论研究了当前飓风防备和响应的风险框架。我们还研究了 COVID-19 大流行如何使这种传统框架复杂化，并提供了一个新框架，为飓风过后提供足够的庇护所，同时将寻求庇护者的呼吸道疾病风险降至最低。我们认为，这样的框架对于在未来的飓风季节保护美国公民是必要的。
