It should be noted that all authors have focused their investigations on bacterial isolation from the chalice or the sacramental wine and none has investigated the viability and transmissibility of viral agents via the common communion cup. In summary, the common communion cup may theoretically serve as a vehicle of transmitting infection, but the potential risk of transmission is very small. Currently, available data do not provide any support for the suggestion that the practice of sharing a common communion cup can contribute to the spread of COVID-19 because SARS-CoV-2 transmission from a COVID-19 patient or asymptomatic carrier to other people has not been reported. cache = ./cache/cord-255078-jfwzax5l.txt txt = ./txt/cord-255078-jfwzax5l.txt === reduce.pl bib === === reduce.pl bib === id = cord-259727-u2zj7zf6 author = Wallar, L.

RESULTS: Ethnicity, population density and overweight/obesity were all found to have strong independent associations with Covid-19 mortality, at the local authority level. 9 We have conducted an ecological analysis to assess possible associations with a range of sociodemographic variables using routinely available data for local authorities e ethnicity, overweight and obesity, population density, deprivation and pollution. 9 Although it is widely reported that older people and men are at increased risk, these variables are not included in this analysis (because the mortality rates are age standardised and because we would not expect to see sufficient variation in the percentage of local authority populations who are men). Of the variables considered, we found that the strongest predictors of the rate of deaths involving Covid-19 at the local authority level were population density and ethnicity. cache = ./cache/cord-301426-i9a5g86x.txt txt = ./txt/cord-301426-i9a5g86x.txt === reduce.pl bib === id = cord-297197-klr208kp author = Weizman, Yehuda title = Use of Wearable Technology to Enhance Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic date = 2020-07-01 pages = extension = .txt mime = text/plain words = 1361 sentences = 73 flesch = 50 summary = ABSTRACT Introduction As part of the COVID-19 outbreak response, numerous technology-based solutions have been created to enable contact tracing, track movements of the population and ensure social control. The bracelet would facilitate 3 functions; screening on a population level, digital contact tracing and real-time immunity status tracking. The bracelet would employ the IoT to transfer data over a network to an interactive web-based dashboard that tracks COVID-19 in real-time. If an individual then tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, the database could automatically trace back anyone they had come in contact with in the past 14 days using a GPS feature (described below). In this instance, the biometric bracelet's GPS feature would continuously track movements of individuals within a geographical area and communicate back to the Covid-19 database platform saving input on the population whereabouts at each timepoint. As the coronavirus pandemic continues to spread, some Privacy Commissioners are lifting data restrictions for health officials to keep track of the outbreak. cache = ./cache/cord-297197-klr208kp.txt txt = ./txt/cord-297197-klr208kp.txt === reduce.pl bib === id = cord-263057-1pty32l1 author = Bhopal, Sunil title = Children's mortality from COVID-19 compared with all-deaths and other relevant causes of death: epidemiological information for decision-making by parents, teachers, clinicians and policymakers date = 2020-05-30 pages = extension = .txt mime = text/plain words = 803 sentences = 47 flesch = 57 summary = title: Children's mortality from COVID-19 compared with all-deaths and other relevant causes of death: epidemiological information for decision-making by parents, teachers, clinicians and policymakers We examined age-specific data on COVID-19 deaths which had been collated from official government sources for seven countries up to 8-19 May 2020 6 .

Previously excluded cases were included for plotting on an epidemic curve, and basic spot mapping for distribution of cases was used from attack rates recalculated for age, gender, occupation, residential location, date of onset of illness and demographics. If a spot map of incidence density rates was used during the early phase of the outbreak, the inner city might have been identified as a major risk factor requiring rapid quarantining. 8 Re-analysis included an epidemic curve for 'probable' SARS cases only and calculations of the Beijing population-based rate, stratified by age and sex, using the Fifth General Census of China (version 2000). The import phase of the Beijing epidemic occurred rapidly, between 1 and 10 March, with 14 cases admitted with an acute pneumonia of unknown cause without history taken for exposure to a case of respiratory illness or environmental contact. cache = ./cache/cord-276394-s9y11oep.txt txt = ./txt/cord-276394-s9y11oep.txt === reduce.pl bib === === reduce.pl bib === id = cord-302272-ahwyfn1n author = Legkauskas, V. title = Recommendations for ‘responsible behaviour’ is not a sufficient policy tool in public health emergencies date = 2020-05-01 pages = extension = .txt mime = text/plain words = 662 sentences = 45 flesch = 49 summary = Letter to the Editor Recommendations for 'responsible behaviour' is not a sufficient policy tool in public health emergencies In response to the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, several countries including the USA, the UK, and Sweden initially relied on recommendations for 'responsible behaviour' of their citizens in reducing the spread of infection. 1 Most countries (e.g., Italy, France, Denmark, Lithuania and so on) deemed unrealistic that the required majority of the population will be responsible enough to adhere to such recommendations voluntarily and imposed enforced restrictions of movement, including large fines for violation of social distancing regimes. 4 As these mortality comparisons suggest, recommendations for responsible behaviour alone is not a viable policy tool in public health emergencies such as pandemics of highly contagious and deadly diseases such as COVID-19. cache = ./cache/cord-302272-ahwyfn1n.txt txt = ./txt/cord-302272-ahwyfn1n.txt === reduce.pl bib === id = cord-351065-nyfnwrtm author = Zhang, Tenghao title = Integrating GIS technique with Google Trends data to analyse COVID-19 severity and public interest date = 2020-09-16 pages = extension = .txt mime = text/plain words = 460 sentences = 40 flesch = 61 summary = title: Integrating GIS technique with Google Trends data to analyse COVID-19 severity and public interest Some studies suggest that health related issues can cause anxiety which may lead to increased public attention, typically manifested by online information search.

The COVID-19 pandemic is a major health emergency that is impacting the behaviour of entire populations in response to a direct threat to both individuals and communities. We compared ED visits in two major referral hospitals in the North of Italy from the 21st February to 16th April with COVID-19 daily mortality data from the Italian Civil Protection Department 4 (see Figure 1 ).

The other component of well-developed health protection systems are strong infectious disease surveillance systems. The current concerns then regarding the 2019-nCoV outbreak must be for low-and middle-income countries where health protection systems tend to be weaker.

This study found that delaying policies for international travel restrictions, public information campaigns, and testing policies increased the fatality rate. Tests also impacted the case fatality rate, and nations with 10% more cumulative tests per million people resulted in a 2.8% lower mortality rate. Here, we assessed tests as a policy instrument and the start of policy enactment to contain 29 and potentially reduce mortalities across 121 nations.

Objective: With the current SARS-CoV2 outbreak, countless tests need to be performed on potential symptomatic individuals, contacts and travellers. We therefore evaluated a rapid antibody IgG/IgMebased testing system in the community setting for its ability, specificity and sensitivity to reliably identify infected individuals. Thirty-nine randomly selected individuals at the centre were tested simultaneously using the SARS-CoV-2 rapid test and the gold standard RT-qPCR method (Altona Diagnostics). The rapid test used for evaluation is a qualitative IgG/IgM detection system to test for a current or past infection of SARS-CoV-2. cache = ./cache/cord-281241-k1adcls8.txt txt = ./txt/cord-281241-k1adcls8.txt === reduce.pl bib === === reduce.pl bib === === reduce.pl bib === === reduce.pl bib === ===== Reducing email addresses cord-302272-ahwyfn1n cord-286361-wh6aaqlu cord-290173-r3ikazrt Creating transaction Updating adr table ===== Reducing keywords cord-254904-4eduslpb cord-258842-vuxzv6eu cord-276394-s9y11oep cord-269575-hdqa12es cord-265996-97xxpe8m cord-301426-i9a5g86x cord-255078-jfwzax5l cord-259727-u2zj7zf6 cord-263659-9i5qws5h cord-334401-i5dz7ufc cord-263057-1pty32l1 cord-263255-zdufwtn4 cord-326852-gm98s8a3 cord-297197-klr208kp cord-257325-pvf0uon3 cord-031747-tnprxtoh cord-303861-qn8yifcd cord-352649-6yzddeua cord-302272-ahwyfn1n cord-262577-70ifjvkf cord-346160-n9i0blv1 cord-308821-j4vylbhy cord-344425-27q9x6hb cord-355869-r68fccx0 cord-298652-96l3h3ih cord-351065-nyfnwrtm cord-346370-jdfsacds cord-281241-k1adcls8 cord-337096-ulc7mnwb cord-311636-8l7jlvvj cord-263719-a9mnjr3s cord-332142-lk95akg5 cord-290173-r3ikazrt cord-354318-gzdy25vv cord-328662-kpx73ki2 cord-354989-k0qktzor cord-286290-85l99l13 cord-270278-d61n3v90 cord-285928-gl4jfb3z cord-279032-plj9kg42 cord-339822-cewpqddk cord-283553-n06og3cw cord-318737-b32tk5ze cord-283467-bgxc3ti8 cord-312646-hfv7ce3f cord-315217-sg6vnur0 cord-293316-kip8mrjo cord-347261-d6012uem cord-307520-8zmwh9ch cord-286361-wh6aaqlu cord-294884-6l25y6fw cord-252218-jrgl0x06 cord-280800-g25z8xzt cord-288616-7i1kukmn cord-324650-rsp72rx8 cord-333532-vrfduv5a cord-281645-vvucoiqd cord-303414-fwamdr08 Creating transaction Updating wrd table ===== Reducing urls cord-307520-8zmwh9ch cord-351065-nyfnwrtm cord-347261-d6012uem Creating transaction Updating url table ===== Reducing named entities cord-258842-vuxzv6eu cord-255078-jfwzax5l cord-265996-97xxpe8m cord-263659-9i5qws5h cord-254904-4eduslpb cord-259727-u2zj7zf6 cord-346370-jdfsacds cord-326852-gm98s8a3 cord-263255-zdufwtn4 cord-351065-nyfnwrtm cord-281241-k1adcls8 cord-334401-i5dz7ufc cord-302272-ahwyfn1n cord-297197-klr208kp cord-276394-s9y11oep cord-257325-pvf0uon3 cord-308821-j4vylbhy cord-303861-qn8yifcd cord-269575-hdqa12es cord-355869-r68fccx0 cord-352649-6yzddeua cord-318737-b32tk5ze cord-301426-i9a5g86x cord-346160-n9i0blv1 cord-303414-fwamdr08 cord-263719-a9mnjr3s cord-344425-27q9x6hb cord-354989-k0qktzor cord-337096-ulc7mnwb cord-311636-8l7jlvvj cord-031747-tnprxtoh cord-333532-vrfduv5a cord-286290-85l99l13 cord-290173-r3ikazrt cord-298652-96l3h3ih cord-283553-n06og3cw cord-279032-plj9kg42 cord-354318-gzdy25vv cord-347261-d6012uem cord-283467-bgxc3ti8 cord-293316-kip8mrjo cord-328662-kpx73ki2 cord-339822-cewpqddk cord-285928-gl4jfb3z cord-312646-hfv7ce3f cord-307520-8zmwh9ch cord-288616-7i1kukmn cord-315217-sg6vnur0 cord-324650-rsp72rx8 cord-286361-wh6aaqlu cord-280800-g25z8xzt cord-281645-vvucoiqd cord-252218-jrgl0x06 cord-294884-6l25y6fw cord-262577-70ifjvkf cord-263057-1pty32l1 cord-332142-lk95akg5 cord-270278-d61n3v90 Creating transaction Updating ent table ===== Reducing parts of speech cord-254904-4eduslpb cord-302272-ahwyfn1n cord-276394-s9y11oep cord-259727-u2zj7zf6 cord-265996-97xxpe8m cord-301426-i9a5g86x cord-258842-vuxzv6eu cord-281241-k1adcls8 cord-257325-pvf0uon3 cord-334401-i5dz7ufc cord-255078-jfwzax5l cord-351065-nyfnwrtm cord-269575-hdqa12es cord-297197-klr208kp cord-344425-27q9x6hb cord-326852-gm98s8a3 cord-262577-70ifjvkf cord-352649-6yzddeua cord-263255-zdufwtn4 cord-303861-qn8yifcd cord-354989-k0qktzor cord-303414-fwamdr08 cord-337096-ulc7mnwb cord-346370-jdfsacds cord-355869-r68fccx0 cord-311636-8l7jlvvj cord-290173-r3ikazrt cord-328662-kpx73ki2 cord-318737-b32tk5ze cord-263057-1pty32l1 cord-332142-lk95akg5 cord-333532-vrfduv5a cord-354318-gzdy25vv cord-263719-a9mnjr3s cord-285928-gl4jfb3z cord-312646-hfv7ce3f cord-279032-plj9kg42 cord-270278-d61n3v90 cord-283467-bgxc3ti8 cord-031747-tnprxtoh cord-283553-n06og3cw cord-281645-vvucoiqd cord-315217-sg6vnur0 cord-339822-cewpqddk cord-288616-7i1kukmn cord-346160-n9i0blv1 cord-286361-wh6aaqlu cord-324650-rsp72rx8 cord-252218-jrgl0x06 cord-294884-6l25y6fw cord-347261-d6012uem cord-280800-g25z8xzt cord-298652-96l3h3ih cord-286290-85l99l13 cord-293316-kip8mrjo cord-308821-j4vylbhy cord-307520-8zmwh9ch cord-263659-9i5qws5h Creating transaction Updating pos table Building ./etc/reader.txt cord-263659-9i5qws5h cord-308821-j4vylbhy cord-258842-vuxzv6eu cord-308821-j4vylbhy cord-263659-9i5qws5h cord-269575-hdqa12es number of items: 58 sum of words: 40,838 average size in words: 1,361 average readability score: 55 nouns: health;

In addition, these vulnerable groups frequently have greater difficulty accessing health services and in treatment adherence. The aim of this study is to estimate the impact of the COVID-19–related lockdown on service utilisation and follow-up adherence in an Italian mental health outpatient service for migrants and individuals in socio-economic difficulties. STUDY DESIGN: The design of this study is a retrospective cross-sectional study. METHODS: All patients who visited the mental health outpatient service in the months of February and March in the years 2017–2020 were included in the study. To compare service utilisation before and after the lockdown, the number of patients who visited the mental health outpatient service for psychiatric interview were recorded. Follow-up adherence was calculated as the percentage of patients who visited in February and subsequently attended a follow-up visit in March of the same year. RESULTS: The number of patients who visited the outpatient service between February 2017 and February 2020 was continuously increasing. In March 2020, fewer patients visited the service for psychiatric interview, in line with the introduction of lockdown measures. In addition, the number of the patients who visited in February 2020 and returned for their follow-up visits in March 2020 declined from approximately 30% over the same months in 2017–2019 to 17.53% in March 2020. CONCLUSIONS: The lockdown-related reduction in numbers of patients accessing the mental health service makes it difficult to help vulnerable populations during a period of time in which their mental health needs are expected to increase. Moreover, the reduction seen in follow-up compliance increases the risk of treatment discontinuation and possible relapse. Proactive alternative strategies need to be developed to reach these vulnerable populations. url: https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/pii/S0033350620302936 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.06.055 id: cord-285928-gl4jfb3z author: Armitage, Richard title: Substance misuse during COVID-19: protecting people who use drugs date: 2020-05-13 words: nan sentences: nan pages: flesch: nan cache: txt: summary: abstract: nan url: https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/pii/S0033350620301694 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.05.010 id: cord-258842-vuxzv6eu author: Bennett, B. title: Legal rights during pandemics: Federalism, rights and public health laws – a view from Australia date: 2009-02-26 words: nan sentences: nan pages: flesch: nan cache: txt: summary: abstract: Pandemic influenza will cause significant social and economic disruption. Legal frameworks can play an important role in clarifying the rights and duties of individuals, communities and governments for times of crisis. In addressing legal frameworks, there is a need for jurisdictional clarity between different levels of government in responding to public health emergencies. Public health laws are also informed by our understandings of rights and responsibilities for individuals and communities, and the balancing of public health and public freedoms. Consideration of these issues is an essential part of planning for pandemic influenza. url: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.puhe.2008.12.019 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2008.12.019 id: cord-263057-1pty32l1 author: Bhopal, Sunil title: Children''s mortality from COVID-19 compared with all-deaths and other relevant causes of death: epidemiological information for decision-making by parents, teachers, clinicians and policymakers date: 2020-05-30 words: 803.0 sentences: 47.0 pages: flesch: 57.0 cache: ./cache/cord-263057-1pty32l1.txt txt: ./txt/cord-263057-1pty32l1.txt summary: title: Children''s mortality from COVID-19 compared with all-deaths and other relevant causes of death: epidemiological information for decision-making by parents, teachers, clinicians and policymakers We examined age-specific data on COVID-19 deaths which had been collated from official government sources for seven countries up to 8-19 May 2020 6 . We obtained estimated numbers of deaths from other causes from Global Burden of Disease estimates 7 except for influenza for which we examined official government statistical websites and extracted age-specific death counts for up to the last five years (2015-2019). For this time period, in these seven countries combined, 44 COVID-19 deaths were reported in 42,846 confirmed cases (this latter number is likely to be a massive underestimate; data were not available for France) in those aged 0-19 years (0-14 in USA). In children, at least in this wave of the pandemic and hopefully in the future, COVID-19 is a comparatively rare cause of death. abstract: nan url: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.puhe.2020.05.047 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.05.047 id: cord-315217-sg6vnur0 author: Biana, Hazel T. title: The Ethics of Scare: COVID-19 and the Philippines’ Fear Appeals date: 2020-04-20 words: 982.0 sentences: 76.0 pages: flesch: 65.0 cache: ./cache/cord-315217-sg6vnur0.txt txt: ./txt/cord-315217-sg6vnur0.txt summary: title: The Ethics of Scare: COVID-19 and the Philippines'' Fear Appeals The Ethics of Scare: COVID-19 and the Philippines'' Fear Appeals COVID-19 took the world by surprise; and, as of early April 2020, the virus has already claimed more than 80000 lives and infected more than a million people around the globe. 7 Fear appeals have also permeated public health campaigns. While fear appeals and scare tactics have been used in clear and present public health emergencies like COVID-19, the ethics of such public health communication interventions needs to be scrutinized. 13 In a time of the uncertainties of a global health crisis like COVID-19, however, a utilitarian may question this suggestion''s moral acceptability.

RESULTS: Ethnicity, population density and overweight/obesity were all found to have strong independent associations with Covid-19 mortality, at the local authority level. 9 We have conducted an ecological analysis to assess possible associations with a range of sociodemographic variables using routinely available data for local authorities e ethnicity, overweight and obesity, population density, deprivation and pollution. 9 Although it is widely reported that older people and men are at increased risk, these variables are not included in this analysis (because the mortality rates are age standardised and because we would not expect to see sufficient variation in the percentage of local authority populations who are men). Of the variables considered, we found that the strongest predictors of the rate of deaths involving Covid-19 at the local authority level were population density and ethnicity. abstract: BACKGROUND: There is emerging evidence about characteristics that may increase the risk of Covid-19 mortality, but they are highly correlated. METHODS: An ecological analysis was used to estimate associations between these variables and age-standardised Covid-19 mortality rates at the local authority level. RESULTS: Ethnicity, population density and overweight/obesity were all found to have strong independent associations with Covid-19 mortality, at the local authority level. DISCUSSION: This analysis provides some preliminary evidence about which variables are independently associated with Covid-19 mortality and suggests that others (deprivation and pollution) are not directly linked. It highlights the importance of multivariate analyses to understand the factors that increase vulnerability to Covid-19. url: https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/pii/S0033350620302948 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.06.056 id: cord-286361-wh6aaqlu author: Calman, K. title: Beyond the ‘nanny state’: Stewardship and public health date: 2009-01-09 words: nan sentences: nan pages: flesch: nan cache: txt: summary: abstract: BACKGROUND: Some public health measures restrict personal freedom more than others, and deciding what type of measure will be appropriate and effective has long been a problem for policy makers. Existing bioethical frameworks are often not well suited to address the problems of public health. METHODS: The Nuffield Council on Bioethics set up an expert working party to examine the ethical issues surrounding public health in January 2006. Following evidence gathering and a public consultation exercise, the Council published its conclusions and recommendations in the report ‘Public health: ethical issues’ in November 2007. RESULTS: A spectrum of views exists on the relationship between the state's authority and the individual. The Council set out a proposal to capture the best of the libertarian and paternalistic approaches, in what it calls the ‘stewardship model’. This model suggests guiding principles for making decisions about public health policies, and highlights some key principles including Mill's harm principle, caring for the vulnerable, autonomy and consent. An ‘intervention ladder’ is also proposed, which provides a way of thinking about the acceptability of different public health measures. The report then applies these principles to a number of case studies: infectious diseases, obesity, alcohol and tobacco, and fluoridation of water supplies. CONCLUSIONS: The idea of a ‘nanny state’ is often rejected, but the state has a duty to look after the health of everyone, and sometimes that means guiding or restricting people's choices. On the other hand, the state must consider a number of principles when designing public health programmes, and justification is required if any of these principles are to be infringed. url: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0033350608003168 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2008.10.025 id: cord-263255-zdufwtn4 author: Cato, Susumu title: Social distancing as a public good under the COVID-19 pandemic date: 2020-08-13 words: nan sentences: nan pages: flesch: nan cache: txt: summary: abstract: Abstract Objectives The purpose of this study is to show that social distancing is a public good under the COVID-19 pandemic. Study design We apply economic theory to analyze a cross-sectional survey. Methods Economic theory is complemented with empirical evidence. An online survey of those aged 30-49 in Japan (n=2,177) was conducted between April 28 - May 7. Respondents were selected by quota sampling with regard to age group, gender and prefecture of residence. Our main figure shows the proportion of people who increased/did not change/decreased social distancing, relative to the level of altruism and sensitivity to public shaming. The results of OLS and logit models are shown in Supplementary Materials. Results Social distancing is a public good under the COVID-19 pandemic, for which the free-rider problem is particularly severe. Altruism and social norms are crucial factors in overcoming this problem. Using an original survey, we show that people with higher altruistic concerns and sensitivity to shaming are more likely to follow social-distancing measures. Conclusions Altruism and social norms are important for reducing the economic cost of the pandemic. url: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0033350620303607?v=s5 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.08.005 id: cord-270278-d61n3v90 author: Choi, S.M.Y. title: Enhancing legal preparedness for the prevention and control of infectious diseases: Experience from severe acute respiratory syndrome in Hong Kong date: 2009-03-31 words: nan sentences: nan pages: flesch: nan cache: txt: summary: abstract: Summary The use of legislation as a health protection tool forms an important and distinct aspect in the arena of public health. A review of Hong Kong's infectious disease legislation was conducted with a view to updating the legal framework for the prevention of infectious diseases, in order to strengthen the capacity of law to support strategy in the control of infectious diseases. This article shares Hong Kong's experience in reforming its public health legislation to: (1) update terminology and re-organize provisions in accordance with modern public health disease control principles and control mechanisms for disease; (2) enhance responsiveness for better preparedness and flexibility in handling emergent infections; (3) ensure appropriate checks and balances to coercive powers; and (4) introduce emergency powers for the handling of public health emergencies. url: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19264334/ doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2009.01.004 id: cord-354318-gzdy25vv author: Cénat, Jude Mary title: US deportation policies in the time of COVID-19: A public health threat to the Americas date: 2020-05-22 words: 324.0 sentences: 34.0 pages: flesch: 65.0 cache: ./cache/cord-354318-gzdy25vv.txt txt: ./txt/cord-354318-gzdy25vv.txt summary: title: US deportation policies in the time of COVID-19: A public health threat to the Americas By failing to promptly putting an end to deportations, the U.S Administration risks becoming the most influential factor in the spread of COVID-19 in some vulnerable countries in the Americas.

Objective: With the current SARS-CoV2 outbreak, countless tests need to be performed on potential symptomatic individuals, contacts and travellers. We therefore evaluated a rapid antibody IgG/IgMebased testing system in the community setting for its ability, specificity and sensitivity to reliably identify infected individuals. Thirty-nine randomly selected individuals at the centre were tested simultaneously using the SARS-CoV-2 rapid test and the gold standard RT-qPCR method (Altona Diagnostics).

The gold standard is a quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)–based system taking several hours to confirm positivity. For effective public health containment measures, this time span is too long. We therefore evaluated a rapid test in a high-prevalence community setting. STUDY DESIGN: Thirty-nine randomly selected individuals at a COVID-19 screening centre were simultaneously tested via qPCR and a rapid test. Ten previously diagnosed individuals with known SARS-CoV-2 infection were also analysed. METHODS: The evaluated rapid test is an IgG/IgM–based test for SARS-CoV-2 with a time to result of 20 min. Two drops of blood are needed for the test performance. RESULTS: Of 49 individuals, 22 tested positive by repeated qPCR. In contrast, the rapid test detected only eight of those positive correctly (sensitivity: 36.4%). Of the 27 qPCR-negative individuals, 24 were detected correctly (specificity: 88.9%). CONCLUSION: Given the low sensitivity, we recommend not to rely on an antibody-based rapid test for public health measures such as community screenings. url: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0033350620301141 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.04.009 id: cord-031747-tnprxtoh author: Galassi, F.M. title: Sinophobia as the disease and palaeopathology as the cure: response to Adja et al. date: 2020-09-11 words: 755.0 sentences: 48.0 pages: flesch: 61.0 cache: ./cache/cord-031747-tnprxtoh.txt txt: ./txt/cord-031747-tnprxtoh.txt summary: Letter to the Editor Sinophobia as the disease and palaeopathology as the cure: response to Adja et al. 1 on the social and xenophobic stigma suffered by the Italian Chinese community after the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, which later became a pandemic. 2 However, concur with the authors and additionally stress that an in-depth scrutiny of the past of diseases and their historical interaction with human populations can help people understand that such a xenophobic response is not something new.

Previously excluded cases were included for plotting on an epidemic curve, and basic spot mapping for distribution of cases was used from attack rates recalculated for age, gender, occupation, residential location, date of onset of illness and demographics. If a spot map of incidence density rates was used during the early phase of the outbreak, the inner city might have been identified as a major risk factor requiring rapid quarantining. 8 Re-analysis included an epidemic curve for ''probable'' SARS cases only and calculations of the Beijing population-based rate, stratified by age and sex, using the Fifth General Census of China (version 2000). The import phase of the Beijing epidemic occurred rapidly, between 1 and 10 March, with 14 cases admitted with an acute pneumonia of unknown cause without history taken for exposure to a case of respiratory illness or environmental contact. abstract: Summary Objective To review the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic in Beijing using basic epidemiological principles omitted from the original analysis. Study design Analysis of Prospective surveillance data for Beijing collected during the outbreak. Methods Surveillance data were reclassified according to World Health Organization criteria. Cases previously excluded without date of onset of illness were included in the epidemic curve from estimates using the average time between date of onset and date of hospitalization for cases with both dates. Cases who failed to give a contact history were now included; 7% ( n = 5 ) of cases during the import phase and 61% ( n = 365 ) during the peak phase. Previously excluded cases were included for plotting on an epidemic curve, and basic spot mapping for distribution of cases was used from attack rates recalculated for age, gender, occupation, residential location, date of onset of illness and demographics. Results The spot map effectively illustrated clusters by residency, with the inner-city sustaining the highest attack rate (33.42 per 100,000), followed by an easterly distribution 5–30km away (21.62 per 10,000), and lowest in districts 60–160km away (9.21 per 100,000). The new epidemic curve shows the outbreak commencing 10 days earlier than initially reported, with a three-fold greater increase in cases during the escalation phase than previously estimated. Conclusion In hindsight, the investigation of the Beijing SARS would have benefited from the use of spot maping as an essential outbreak tool for early identification of specific geographical area(s) for quarantining. If a spot map of incidence density rates was used during the early phase of the outbreak, the inner city might have been identified as a major risk factor requiring rapid quarantining. Contact history became uncommon as the outbreak progressed, suggesting that hospitals were over-burdened or pathogenesis and environment risk factors changed, strengthening the usefulness of early spot mapping and the need to modify risk factors included as contact history as the epidemic progresses. url: https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/pii/S0033350607000819 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2007.02.023 id: cord-344425-27q9x6hb author: Mantica, Guglielmo title: Reply to D.G.

Some but not all states are signatories to the Schengen Agreement that provides further constraints on disease control measures. The porous nature of borders between EU states, and of their borders with other non-EU states, limits the extent to which states are able to protect their populations in a disease pandemic. This paper considers the role that public health laws can play in the control of pandemic disease in Europe. url: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19261313/ doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2009.01.002 id: cord-355869-r68fccx0 author: Ogle, H.L. title: Who must take responsibility for the health of the profession?

We aimed to investigate trends for cardiac diseases admissions during the outbreak of the pandemic and possible associations with the applied restrictive measures. Study Design Retrospective observational study. Methods Data for 4,970 patients admitted via the cardiology Emergency Department (ED) across 3 large volume urban hospitals in Athens and 2 regional/rural hospitals from 3rd February 2020 and up to 12th April was recorded. Data from the equivalent (for COVID-19 outbreak) time period of 2019 and from the post lockdown time period were also collected. Results A falling trend of cardiology ED visits and hospital admissions starting from the week that the restrictive measures due to COVID-19 were implemented was observed. Compared to the pre-COVID-19 outbreak time period, ACS [145 (29/week) vs. 60 (12/week), -59%, p<.001], STEMI [46 (9.2/week) vs. 21 (4.2/week), -54%, p=.002] and NSTE-ACS [99 cases (19.8/week) vs. 39 (7.8/week), -60% p<.001] were reduced at the COVID-19 outbreak time period. Reductions were also noted for heart failure worsening and arrhythmias. The ED visits in the post-lockdown period were significantly higher compared to the COVID-19 outbreak time period (1,511 vs 660; p<0.05). Conclusion Our data show significant drops in cardiology visits and admissions during the COVID-19 outbreak. Whether this results from restrictive measures or depicts a true reduction of cardiac disease cases warrants further investigation. url: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/32949881/ doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.08.007 id: cord-337096-ulc7mnwb author: Okazawa, Mitsushi title: Japanese tactics for suppressing COVID-19 spread date: 2020-07-14 words: nan sentences: nan pages: flesch: nan cache: txt: summary: abstract: Abstract COVID-19 infection is overwhelming the world and death toll is steadily increasing.

Study Design Our dataset covers 144 countries for which complete data are available. In order to analyze the link between human mobility and COVID-19 infected people, our study focused on the volume of air travel, the number of airports and the Schengen system. Methods In order to analyze the variation in COVID-19 infected people in countries, we used negative binomial regression analysis. Results Our findings suggest a positive relationship between higher volume of airline passenger traffic carried in a country and higher numbers of COVID-19 patients. We further found that countries which have a higher number of airports are associated with higher number of COVID-19 cases. Schengen countries, countries which have higher population density and higher percentage of elderly population are also found to be more likely to have more COVID-19 cases than other countries. Conclusions The paper brings a novel insight into the COVID-19 pandemic from a human mobility perspective. Future research should assess the impacts of the scale of sea/bus/car travel on the epidemic. The findings of this paper are relevant for public health authorities, community and health-service providers and policy-makers. url: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.puhe.2020.07.002 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.07.002 id: cord-333532-vrfduv5a author: Patel, Kishan Pravin title: COVID-19 Patients: Are Current Isolation Guidelines Effective Enough? date: 2020-05-11 words: 862.0 sentences: 49.0 pages: flesch: 48.0 cache: ./cache/cord-333532-vrfduv5a.txt txt: ./txt/cord-333532-vrfduv5a.txt summary: We believe the current isolation guidelines need to be revisited and clinicians should counsel COVID-19 patients to practice contact precautions for longer durations given new evidence suggesting the possibility of a fecaloral route of transmission. Furthermore, a recent case reported an asymptomatic COVID-19 patient who retested positive for SARS-CoV-2 despite being discharged after two negative consecutive respiratory nucleic acid tests at least 24 hours apart, raising concern for inadequate discharge protocol. With consideration of its high virulence, high infectivity, and the concern for a fecal-oral route of transmission, we suggest modifying guidelines to extend isolation and/or contact precautions in the best interest of patients, healthcare workers, and the global community as a whole.

These Regulations contain a broad range of binding provisions to address the risks of international disease spread in international travel, trade and transportation. Important elements include multiple provisions, whether denominated in terms of human rights or other terminology, that are protective of interests of individuals who may be subject to public health measures in this international context. With the vast (and increasing) numbers of persons undertaking international voyages and the global coverage of these revised Regulations, they are an important development in this area.

I If most people wear a mask in public at any time the transmission rate can easily decrease beneath 1.0, thus stopping the spread of the disease and limit the long-standing Lockdown measures 13 . It is important to emphasize that while a protective mask may reduce the likelihood of infection, it will not eliminate the risk, particularly when a disease has more than one route of transmission, as identified in SARS-Cov-2. While strict isolation and social distancing measures can flatten the infectious curve, the use of facemask needs to be encouraged and facilitated where the 6-feet social distancing cannot be implemented because of physical barriers. abstract: Abstract Since the declaration of the COVID-19 pandemic, a lot of data has invaded our lives, and the conflicting findings have caused us to be frantic about the correct course action.

STUDY DESIGN: Online cross-sectional survey. METHODS: Data were collected between 6th and 7th May 2020. A total of 2240 participants living in the UK aged 18 years or older were recruited from YouGov's online research panel. RESULTS: A total of 217 people (9.7%) reported that they or someone in their household had symptoms of COVID-19 (cough or high temperature/fever) in the last 7 days. Of these people, 75.1% had left the home in the last 24 h (defined as non-adherent). Men were more likely to be non-adherent, as were people who were less worried about COVID-19, and who perceived a smaller risk of catching COVID-19. Adherence was associated with having received help from someone outside your household. Results should be taken with caution as there was no evidence for associations when controlling for multiple analyses. Of people reporting no symptoms in the household, 24.5% had gone out shopping for non-essentials in the last week (defined as non-adherent). Factors associated with non-adherence and with a higher total number of outings in the last week included decreased perceived effectiveness of government ‘lockdown’ measures, decreased perceived severity of COVID-19 and decreased estimates of how many other people were following lockdown rules. Having received help was associated with better adherence. CONCLUSIONS: Adherence to self-isolation is poor. As we move into a new phase of contact tracing and self-isolation, it is essential that adherence is improved. Communications should aim to increase knowledge about actions to take when symptomatic or if you have been in contact with a possible COVID-19 case. They should also emphasise the risk of catching and spreading COVID-19 when out and about and the effectiveness of preventative measures. Using volunteer networks effectively to support people in isolation may promote adherence. url: https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/pii/S003335062030319X doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.07.024 id: cord-255078-jfwzax5l author: Spantideas, Nikolaos title: Covid-19 And Holy Communion date: 2020-08-20 words: 1145.0 sentences: 61.0 pages: flesch: 48.0 cache: ./cache/cord-255078-jfwzax5l.txt txt: ./txt/cord-255078-jfwzax5l.txt summary: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has revived the long-standing discussion regarding the potential hazards of infectious disease transmission through the shared communion cup. It should be noted that all authors have focused their investigations on bacterial isolation from the chalice or the sacramental wine and none has investigated the viability and transmissibility of viral agents via the common communion cup. In summary, the common communion cup may theoretically serve as a vehicle of transmitting infection, but the potential risk of transmission is very small. Currently, available data do not provide any support for the suggestion that the practice of sharing a common communion cup can contribute to the spread of COVID-19 because SARS-CoV-2 transmission from a COVID-19 patient or asymptomatic carrier to other people has not been reported. abstract: nan url: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/32950775/ doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.08.012 id: cord-318737-b32tk5ze author: Stickley, Andrew title: COVID-19 preventive behaviours among people with anxiety and depressive symptoms: Findings from Japan date: 2020-10-10 words: nan sentences: nan pages: flesch: nan cache: txt: summary: abstract: Objectives To examine COVID-19 preventive behaviours among individuals with mental health problems.

Estimating case fatality rates of COVID-19 abstract: Abstract Objectives COVID-19 is the most devastating pandemic to affect humanity in a century. In this paper, we assessed tests as a policy instrument and policy enactment to contain COVID-19 and potentially reduce mortalities. Study design A model was devised to estimate the factors that influenced the death rate across 121 nations and by income group. Results Nations with a higher proportion of people age 65+ had a higher fatality rate (p = 0.00014). Delaying policy enactment led to a higher case fatality rate (p = 0.0013). A 10% delay time to act resulted in a 3.7% higher case fatality rate. This study found that delaying policies for international travel restrictions, public information campaigns, and testing policies increased the fatality rate. Tests also impacted the case fatality rate, and nations with 10% more cumulative tests per million people resulted in a 2.8% lower mortality rate. Citizens of nations who can access more destinations without the need to have a prior visa have a significant higher mortality rate than those that need a visa to travel abroad (p = 0.0040). Conclusion Tests, as a surrogate of policy action and earlier policy enactment, matter for saving lives from pandemics as such policies reduce the transmission rate of the pandemic. url: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/32971478/ doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.08.008 id: cord-326852-gm98s8a3 author: Teo, Wan-Yee title: Implications for Border Containment Strategies when COVID-19 Presents Atypically date: 2020-07-24 words: 1964.0 sentences: 108.0 pages: flesch: 54.0 cache: ./cache/cord-326852-gm98s8a3.txt txt: ./txt/cord-326852-gm98s8a3.txt summary: Conclusions An important global border control measure to implement quickly, will be to expand the symptom list to isolated sore throat, and/or a prior history of recent symptoms (resolved). Following the instructions on the information sheet from Singapore Global Network (a division in the Singapore Economic Development Board which broadens and deepens the overseas network of Singapore citizens) available online, 2 the patient and his family contacted the People''s Association (a government-supported statutory board to promote racial harmony and social cohesion in Singapore) to clarify the symptom of a resolved sore throat, and highlighted patient''s contact history with an Italy-returning medical student during a fencing sparring. Staff at People''s Association rapidly facilitated the patient to be picked up in a dedicated ambulance to National Center of Infection Disease, Singapore, where a chest x-ray done was normal, and the swab test was positive for COVID-19 (Day 8 of initial symptoms). abstract: Abstract Objectives For a large part of COVID-19 pandemic, Singapore had managed to keep local cases in the single digits daily, with decisive measures. Yet we saw this critical time point when the imported cases surged through our borders. The gaps which we can and have efficiently closed, using a public health approach and global border containment strategies, are aptly illustrated through this case. This critical point of imported case surge, has resulted in large spike of daily local cases sustained through community transmission, up to 120/day within a very short time frame. We were able to rapidly bring this under control. Study Design This is a case study of a patient who passed through our borders, with COVID-19 masquerading as a resolved sore throat. Methods The events were prospectively documented. Results We present a case of a 21 year-old student returning from Nottingham. He presented with sore throat as the only symptom the few days prior his return, and on arrival at our border (Day 7 from initial symptoms), his sore throat had already resolved. The events leading up to his COVID-19 diagnosis highlight the gaps of the international screening processes at the global border entry, and the potential consequences of community chain transmission through imported COVID-19 cases. Conclusions An important global border control measure to implement quickly, will be to expand the symptom list to isolated sore throat, and/or a prior history of recent symptoms (resolved). This may capture a larger proportion of imported cases at border entry point, for more effective containment. This piece will be equally relevant to the general physicians, emergency care physicians, otolaryngologists and anaesthetists, who are at higher risk of encountering a throat visualization during intubation and routine examination.

Although the Chinese Government has already carried out a series of emergency education and training programmes to improve public health staff's capability of emergency preparedness, it remains unclear if these training programmes are effective and feasible. The purpose of this research was to evaluate an emergency preparedness training programme and to develop a participatory training approach for emergency response. Methods Seventy-six public health staff completed the emergency preparedness training programme. The effectiveness of the training was evaluated by questionnaire before training, immediately after training and 12 months after training (follow-up). Additionally, semi-structured interviews were conducted throughout the training period. Results The emergency preparedness training improved the knowledge levels and increased attitudinal and behavioural intention scores for emergency preparedness (P<0.01). The results at follow-up showed that the knowledge levels and attitudinal/behavioural intention scores of participants decreased slightly (P>0.05) compared with levels immediately after training (P<0.01). However, there was a significant increase compared with before training (P<0.01). Moreover, more than 80% of participants reported that the training process and resources were scientific and feasible. Conclusions The emergency preparedness training programme met its aims and objectives satisfactorily, and resulted in positive shifts in knowledge and attitudinal/behavioural intentions for public health staff. This suggests that this emergency training strategy was effective and feasible in improving the capability of emergency preparedness. url: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0033350607002776 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2007.08.006 id: cord-269575-hdqa12es author: Wei, B. title: Bridging the gap between education and practice in public health, with particular reference to less-developed provinces in China date: 2010-12-17 words: nan sentences: nan pages: flesch: nan cache: txt: summary: abstract: Ongoing healthcare system reform is one of the most important issues in China.

Results/Conclusions Utilising the Internet of Things, data would then be transfer over a network to interactive web-based dashboard and big data analytics employed to augment response within a defined geographic region. url: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0033350620302869?v=s5 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.06.048 id: cord-283467-bgxc3ti8 author: Wu, Yan title: Risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection among contacts of individuals with COVID-19 in Hangzhou, China date: 2020-06-12 words: nan sentences: nan pages: flesch: nan cache: txt: summary: abstract: Abstract Objectives This study determined the rate of secondary infection among contacts of individuals with confirmed COVID-19 in Hangzhou according to the type of contact, the intensity of the contact, and their relationship with the index patient. Study design Retrospective cohort study. Methods The analysis used the data of 2,994 contacts of 144 individuals with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. The contacts were categorized according to the information source, type of contact, location, intensity of contact, and relationship with the index patient. Results The incidence of infection differed significantly according to contact type. Of the contacts, 186 (6.2%) developed symptoms and 71 (2.4%) had confirmed infection with SARS-CoV-2. The main symptoms were cough and fever. Compared to those who had brief contact with the index case, those who had dined with the index case had a 2.6 times greater risk of infection; those who had shared transport, visited, or had contact with the index case in a medical institution had a 3.6 times greater risk of infection; and household contacts had 41.7 times greater risk of infection. Family members had a 31.6 times greater risk of infection than healthcare providers or other patients exposed to an index case. Conclusions The form and frequency of contact are the main factors affecting the risk of infection among contacts of individuals with COVID-19. Centralized isolation and observation of close contacts of individuals with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, in addition to population-based control measures, can reduce the risk of secondary infections and curb the spread of the infection. url: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0033350620301785?v=s5 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.05.016 id: cord-280800-g25z8xzt author: Yang, M. title: A joint infection control system is needed in mental health institutions during outbreaks of major respiratory infectious diseases date: 2020-10-22 words: nan sentences: nan pages: flesch: nan cache: txt: summary: abstract: nan url: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0033350620304078 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.09.003 id: cord-257325-pvf0uon3 author: Zeitoun, Jean-David title: Impact of Local Care Environment and Social Characteristics on Aggregated Hospital-Fatality Rate from COVID-19 in France: Nationwide Observational Study date: 2020-10-10 words: nan sentences: nan pages: flesch: nan cache: txt: summary: abstract: Objectives We aimed to investigate possible differences in aggregated hospital-fatality rate from COVID-19 in France at the early phase of the outbreak, and to determine whether factors related to population or healthcare supply before the pandemic could be associated with outcome differences. Study design Nationwide observational study including all French hospitals from January 24, 2020 to April 11, 2020. Methods We analysed aggregated hospital-fatality rate. A Poisson regression was performed to investigate associations between characteristics pertaining to populational health, socioeconomic context and local healthcare supply at baseline, and the chosen outcome. Results On April 11, 2020, a total number of 30 960 patients were hospitalized among the 3 046 French healthcare facilities, including 6 832 patients in intensive care unit (ICU). A total of 8 581 deaths due to Covid-19 had been recorded, with a median mortality rate per 10 000 people per department of 0.53 (IQR: 0.29-1.90). There were significant variations between the 95 French departments even after adjusting on outbreak inception (p<0.001). After multivariable analysis, four factors were independently associated with a significantly higher aggregated hospital-fatality rate: a higher ICU capacity at baseline (estimate=1.47; p=0.00791), a lower density of general practitioners (estimate=0.95; p=0.0205), a higher fraction of activity from the for-profit private sector (estimate=0.99; p<0.001), and the ratio of people over 75 (estimate=0.91; p=0.0023). Conclusions Aggregated hospital-fatality rate from COVID-19 in France seems to vary among geographic areas, with some factors pertaining to local healthcare supply being associated with outcome. url: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0033350620304340?v=s5 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.09.015 id: cord-351065-nyfnwrtm author: Zhang, Tenghao title: Integrating GIS technique with Google Trends data to analyse COVID-19 severity and public interest date: 2020-09-16 words: 460.0 sentences: 40.0 pages: flesch: 61.0 cache: ./cache/cord-351065-nyfnwrtm.txt txt: ./txt/cord-351065-nyfnwrtm.txt summary: title: Integrating GIS technique with Google Trends data to analyse COVID-19 severity and public interest Some studies suggest that health related issues can cause anxiety which may lead to increased public attention, typically manifested by online information search. Adams et al.''s (2020) GIS-based study points out the shortcomings of using unnormalized COVID-19 demographic data in choropleth mapping, and their use of the normalized data (confirmed cases per 100,000 people) presents a more accurate visualisation of pandemic severity. The COVID-19 case data were retrieved from the US health authority (https://cdc.gov/covid-datatracker). Public interest was captured by people''s Google search data in each state. 7 The data were acquired from the Google Trends service, which uses a normalized relative search volume The role of health anxiety in online health information search The disguised pandemic: The importance of data normalization in COVID-19 web mapping abstract: nan url: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0033350620304091?v=s5 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2020.09.005 id: cord-263659-9i5qws5h author: Zhao, Y. title: Basic public health services delivered in an urban community: a qualitative study date: 2010-12-08 words: nan sentences: nan pages: flesch: nan cache: txt: summary: abstract: OBJECTIVES: To understand the advancements in and barriers to the implementation of measures to improve basic public health services in an urban Chinese community. STUDY DESIGN: A qualitative study based on semi-structured interviews. Interviews were audio-taped, transcribed and analysed using thematic content analysis. METHODS: In-depth interviews were undertaken with the directors of the management centres for community health services in 15 of the 18 districts in Beijing from December 2008 to February 2009. Content analysis of the data was completed in May 2009. RESULTS: Fifteen types of free basic public health services had been delivered in Beijing. Some were supplied at a low level. An average of £2.38 per person per year was provided for inhabitants since 2008, but demand for funding far exceeded monies available. Teams consisting of general practitioners, community nurses and public health specialists delivered these services. The number of practitioners and their low levels of skill were insufficient to provide adequate services for community residents. Respondents gave recommendations of how to resolve the above problems. CONCLUSIONS: In order to improve the delivery of basic public health services, it is necessary for Beijing Municipal Government to supply clear and detailed protocols, increase funding and increase the number of skilled practitioners in the community health services. url: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0033350610003185 doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2010.09.003 id: cord-293316-kip8mrjo author: de Sa, J. title: Risk communication and management in public health crises date: 2009-09-10 words: 1741.0 sentences: 103.0 pages: flesch: 45.0 cache: ./cache/cord-293316-kip8mrjo.txt txt: ./txt/cord-293316-kip8mrjo.txt summary: Since the turn of the century, the World Health Organization (WHO) has documented a historically unprecedented number of emerging infectious disease outbreaks, and lessons drawn from their management have confirmed the critical importance of effective communications, specifically through formal channels such as WHO and in the public domain. Instant and global transmission of information has become a powerful ally, along with peer pressure, for WHO in ensuring that member states comply with new obligations to swiftly declare outbreaks considered to be of public health importance. There is now significant global attention and accompanying investment which should, the authors suggest, be used as an opportunity to improve strategic and operational communication capacity to respond not only to pandemic influenza but also to other public health threats. 4 Ultimately, the debate is centred on the boundary between the governance of risk communication and risk management, the former now being mandated through international laws, with the latter remaining, to a large degree, a national sovereignty responsibility. abstract: nan url: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19747703/ doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2009.07.017 ==== make-pages.sh questions [ERIC WAS HERE] ==== make-pages.sh search /data-disk/reader-compute/reader-cord/bin/make-pages.sh: line 77: /data-disk/reader-compute/reader-cord/tmp/search.htm: No such file or directory Traceback (most recent call last): File "/data-disk/reader-compute/reader-cord/bin/tsv2htm-search.py", line 51, in with open( TEMPLATE, 'r' ) as handle : htm = handle.read() FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/data-disk/reader-compute/reader-cord/tmp/search.htm' ==== make-pages.sh topic modeling corpus Zipping study carrel
