Abstract

COVID-19'un ortaya çıkıĢı, dünyada karıĢık, sürekli geliĢen ve değiĢen bir durum ortaya çıkararak her yaĢtan insanı etkilemeye devam etmektedir. Ancak virüse bağlı ciddi hastalık geliĢimi ve ölme riski yaĢla birlikte artar. Bu durum, COVID-19 pandemisi sürecinde altta yatan yaĢa dayalı ayrımcı tutumları ortaya çıkaran veya teĢvik eden çok sayıda sorunlu politika önerileri ve yorumlarına yol açmaktadır. YaĢlıları homojen bir Ģekilde ‗kırılgan‘ ve ‗savunmasız‘ olarak etiketlendiren bu yaklaĢım, kitlelerin yaĢ temelindeki ayrımcı tutumlarını körükleyerek pandemiye paralel bir yaĢlı ayrımcılığı salgınının patlak vermesine sebep olmuĢtur. Virüsle mücadele esnasında sağlık bakımında ve sokağa çıkıĢ kısıtlaması uygulamalarında yaĢ temelli kararların alınması, medyada ve sağlık yetkilileri açıklamalarında ‗yaĢlı‘ vurgusunun tekrarlaması, sosyal medyada yaĢlı bireylere yönelik ötekileĢtirme/siber zorbalık/stigmatizasyonun artıĢı tüm toplumlarda yaĢanan problemlerdir. YaĢlının esenliğine, özerkliğine ve yaĢam hakkına zarar veren bu yaklaĢımların yerleĢip kurumsallaĢması yaĢlıların toplumdan dıĢlanmasıyla sonuçlanacaktır. Ayrıca genç ve yaĢlı arasındaki bölünme, mevcut pandemi bağlamında yaĢlılık ve yaĢlanmayla ilgili olumsuz mesajları içselleĢtiren gençlerin yaĢlanma sürecini olumsuz etkileyebilir.

Discriminatory practices towards the elderly during the COVID-19 pandemic and assessment of the situation on the elderly people

Year 2021, Volume: 60 Issue: 2, 181 - 190, 30.06.2021

Abstract

The emergence of COVID-19 has created a complex, ever-evolving and changing situation in the world that affected people of all ages, in different ways. The risk of developing severe illness from the virus and of dying from it increases with age. This statement has led to numerous highly problematic policy suggestions and comments revealing underlying ageist attitudes and promoting age discrimination. This approach, which labels the elderly as "frail" and "vulnerable" in a homogeneous way, has fueled the age-based discriminatory attitudes of the masses, causing an epidemic of age discrimination parallel to the pandemic. Age-based decisions in health care and curfews during the fight against the virus, the repetition of the 'old' emphasis in the media and health officials' statements, the increase of marginalization / cyberbullying / stigmatization towards elderly individuals on social media are the problems experienced in all societies. The establishment and institutionalization of these approaches that harm the well-being, autonomy and right to life of the elderly will result in the exclusion of the elderly from society. In addition, the division between young and old can negatively affect the aging process of young people, who internalize negative messages about old age and aging in the context of the current pandemic
