        • Example sentence(s)
          • O que é um cordão sanitário ou uma cerca sanitária? Os dois termos são sinónimos. O primeiro é mais usado pelos médicos, enquanto o segundo surge nas leis da protecção civil. Trata-se de um perímetro que delimita um determinado local, que deverá ficar isolado dos territórios vizinhos. Se for feito à volta de um município, em princípio, todas as entradas e saídas rodoviárias e ferroviárias que ligam esse concelho aos territórios vizinhos são vigiadas pelas forças de segurança de modo a não permitir que uma pessoa consiga sair ou entrar no local que está isolado. Pode haver entradas e saídas excepcionais, para os profissionais de saúde ou para o abastecimento do município a nível de bens essenciais. - Jornal O Público by Maria Teresa Borges de Almeida

        • Definition(s)
          • Санитарен кордон (от френски език: cordon sanitaire) в буквалния смисъл означава карантина - система от мерки, предотвратяващи разпространението на епидемия. След Първата световна война, терминът санитарен кордон се използва в преносен смисъл в геополитиката и означава система от мерки, предотвратяващи разпространение на влияние и идеология, смятани за неизгодни за прослойката на богатите. backdoornews.com - by Andrei Vrabtchev
        • Example sentence(s)
          • Санитарният кордон съответства на разполагане на постове за наблюдение с цел контролиране и блокиране на влизането или излизането от засегнати от епидемия зони. - mediapool.bg by Andrei Vrabtchev
          • Санитарният кордон пък се е появил във Франция през 19-и век, когато през 1821 г. Париж праща 30 000 военни да блокират границата с Испания, за да се попречи на разпространението на жълта треска. Според някои експерти т.нар. „санитарни бариери” е имало и по време на големите чумни епидемии. В Югоизточна Франция „стена срещу чумата" е била издигната във Воклюз през 1721 г. в продължение на 27 километра, за да защити цялата област от чумата, върлуваща по това време в Прованс и Марсилия - nova.bg by Andrei Vrabtchev
