- ItemAcesso aberto (Open Access)Health surveillance and agribusiness: the impact of pesticides on health and the environment. Danger ahead!(ABRASCO - Associação Brasileira de Saúde Coletiva, 2014-12-01) Nasrala Neto, Elias; Lacaz, Francisco Antonio de Castro [UNIFESP]; Pignati, Wanderlei Antonio; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP); Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso Departamento de Saúde ColetivaPesticides are abundantly used in agribusiness and can be damaging to health and the environment. Society in general and agricultural, environmental and health institutions in particular have a legal and statutory duty to supervise their use. To identify and analyze these actions, interviews were conducted with managers of the municipal offices and union leaders representing the workers and farmers. Managers and rural producers were of the opinion that pesticides are essential to productivity and do not generate any impact on health and the environment. No policies or institutional relations monitoring pesticide use were identified or being considered. Rural workers' unions do not take any political initiatives to benefit the health of the workers themselves, their families and that of society in general. The conclusion draws is the pressing need to develop a model for sustainable agriculture, healthy and free of pesticides and that organized society and responsible institutions must undertake actions that meet the needs of the people who working on the farms or consume the agricultural products harvested there, especially controlling risks and consequences that can and must be avoided.

- ItemAcesso aberto (Open Access)Tabaco na mídia: análise de matérias jornalísticas no ano de 2006(ABRASCO - Associação Brasileira de Saúde Coletiva, 2010-05-01) Lacerda, Alex Eustáquio de [UNIFESP]; Mastroianni, Fábio de Carvalho [UNIFESP]; Noto, Ana Regina [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP); Centro Universitário AraraquaraAiming at understanding the relation among health, press and public policies on Tobacco in Brazil, this article analyses the texts about Tobacco published in the Brazilian press in 2006. In the clipping process of eight newspapers and magazines, the information about Tobacco were identified and then submitted to content analysis allowing categorization and classification of the texts. The frequency of the texts in 2006 was compared to that of in 2000 and 2003. We observed a higher prevalence of factual approach among the texts (46.7%). Most of the texts mentioned the negative consequences, such as physical health problems (44.2%), death (20%) and dependence (14.2%). The analysis of the headlines and lead-ins showed control policies, anti-smoking movements and spreading of results as the main categories observed. The frequency of the articles in 2006 was similar to that of in 2003 and lower to that of in 2000. The journalistic coverage on Tobacco in 2006 was restricted predominantly to harm to health and anti-smoking movements. The high proportion of the factual approach and the stabilization in the frequency of texts (2003-2006) might suggest an impoverishment of the discussion on this issue in the country.
