cord-012922-w9ue7wo3 2010 cord-016075-ind62t53 2005 The prevalence of serious dermatologic conditions, while probably quite high among street-dwellers, appears to be relatively low among homeless people living in shelters that provide adequate clothing, laundry facilities, bathing facilities, and medical care. As noted previously, homeless people in cities with few shelter beds are more likely to live on the street or other places not intended for human habitation, with potentially adverse health effects. Some cities have free-care clinics or community health centers that provide ambulatory services for homeless persons as well as other low-income residents. Efforts to displace street youth and homeless people rather than offer them any meaningful help might have negative effects on health and in fact increase high-risk behaviors such as survival sex and unsafe injection drug use practices (O''Grady and Greene, 2003; Wood, et al., 2004) . cord-017225-6ofi6mg5 2018 cord-019032-vdiaexbw 2020 Regarded as the steward of the Chinese economy, Li has aimed to focus on securing China''s long-term expansion and on the further provision of basic national health care, affordable housing, employment growth, regional development and cleaner energy. China is the world''s third largest exporter of arms after the USA and Russia, with 6Á2% of the global major weapons total over the period 2012-16. GDP growth declined to 6Á9% in 2015 (the slowest rate in 25 years) and fell again to 6Á7% in 2016 as China attempted to reduce its reliance on exports, increase domestic consumption and develop its service sector. China''s economy overheated in the early 1990s, leading to inflation rates of 14Á7% in 1993, 24Á1% in 1994 and 17Á1% in 1995 Of the total revenues in 2015 central government accounted for 6,926Á7bn. cord-019040-lj1r8ptb 2018 cord-019057-3j2fl358 2018 cord-022141-yxttl3gh 2014 cord-023837-kenstpja 2019 In foreign affairs, regional concerns over China''s territorial and military intentions were raised in Nov. 2013 by the government''s declaration of a new ''air defence identification zone'' over a swathe of the East China Sea including disputed islands claimed by Japan and South Korea. Regarded as the steward of the Chinese economy, Li was expected to focus on securing China''s long-term expansion and on the further provision of basic national healthcare, affordable housing, employment growth, regional development and cleaner energy.

Three years of ethnographic research inform the paper (2013–2015, predominantly in Guatemala and Nicaragua), including hundreds of hours of interviews and participant observational fieldwork, in Spanish and English, with local stakeholders (e.g., teachers and homestay hosts) and Western volunteer tourists. Against a potent, recent, and very bloody history of U.S. cultural imperialism in Guatemala, western sojourners and their local hosts array themselves along a continuum of positions, from wishing to invite/impose U.S. norms and practices (under rubrics of "helping" and "expertise") to subscribing to (agri)cultural relativism and not wishing to exacerbate axiological violence through the adoption/ imposition of foreign ways. cord-034561-ko7pmtig 2020 cord-125722-maclu8gh 2020 cord-128544-y8flcu8h 2020 In this paper, we propose a novel time delay dynamic system with external source to describe the trend of local outbreak for the 2019-nCoV. The numerical simulations exhibit the dynamic system with the external source is more reliable than the one without it, and the rate of isolation is extremely important for controlling the increase of cumulative confirmed people of 2019-nCoV. In order to determine the impact of prevention and control of infection in different positions (i.e. provinces and cities), the strength and duration of isolation, the value for the rate of recovery, we propose a novel dynamic system with time delay and external source in this paper. The rest of paper is organized as follows: in section 2, we shall propose the notations, the assumptions and the corresponding novel time delay dynamic system with external source. In this section, we shall state a novel dynamic system with time delay and external source to describe the local outbreak of 2019-nCoV in China. cord-146850-5x6qs2i4 2020 Another point brought up in the article is that social media companies might themselves be unwilling to tolerate scraping of their users'' data to do this sort of vetting which against their terms of use for access to the APIs. Borrowing from the credit reporting world, the Fair Credit Reporting Act in the US offers some insights when it mentions that people need to be provided with a recourse to correct information that is used about them in making a decision and that due consent needs to be obtained prior to utilizing such tools to do a background check. Given that AI systems operate in a larger socio-technical ecosystem, we need to tap into fields like law and policy making to come up with effective ways of integrating ethics into AI systems, part of which can involve creating binding legal agreements that tie in with economic incentives.While policy making and law are often seen as slow to adapt to fast changing technology, there are a variety of benefits to be had, for example higher customer trust for services that have adherence to stringent regulations regarding privacy and data protection. cord-223560-ppu6idl2 2020 Results include (1) the quality of social contacts predicted positively, and stress predicted an individual''s well-being negatively when controlling for other variables consistently across both waves; (2) boredom and distractions predicted productivity negatively; (3) productivity was less strongly associated with all predictor variables at time two compared to time one, suggesting that software engineers adapted to the lockdown situation over time; and (4) the longitudinal study did not provide evidence that any predictor variable causal explained variance in well-being and productivity. Therefore, there is a compelling need for longitudinal applied research that draws on theories and findings from various scientific fields to identify variables that uniquely predict the well-being and productivity of software professionals during the 2020 quarantine, for both the current and potential future lockdowns. Second, this approach simultaneously allows us to test whether models developed in an organizational context such as the two-factor theory [48] can also predict people''s well-being in general and whether variables that were associated with well-being for people being quarantined also explain productivity. cord-255360-yjn24sja 2020 The most pressing need is to research the negative biopsychosocial impacts of the COVID‐19 pandemic to facilitate immediate and longer‐term recovery, not only in relation to mental health, but also in relation to behaviour change and adherence, work, education, children and families, physical health and the brain, and social cohesion and connectedness. Specifically, we have identified the shorter-and longerterm priorities around mental health, behaviour change and adherence, work, education, children and families, physical health and the brain, and social cohesion and connectedness in order to (1) frame the breadth and scope of potential contributions from across the discipline, (2) assist psychological scientists in focusing their resources on gaps in the literature, and (3) help funders and policymakers make informed decisions about the shorter-and longer-term COVID-19 research priorities to meet the needs of societies as they emerge from the acute phase of the crisis. cord-256366-9qb1zrzh 2020 Reflecting on a courtroom ethnography and debates spanning legal geography, political ecology and social movements studies, this article explores embodied struggles around oil, ''justice'' and geographies of caring – discussing how Indigenous youth, grandmothers in their eighties and others were convicted of ''criminal contempt'' for being on a road near an oil pipeline expansion project. On August 15th, 2018, as part of a research programme on intergenerational environmental justice, I sat in this gallery with other courtroom observers as a seventeen-year old Indigenous boy was sentenced by a white male judge for violating an injunction against impeding construction of an oil pipeline expansion project on his ancestral territory. The elder argued that the boy should not be deemed "guilty" of anything, that forced appearance at nine court proceedings, causing repeated sleepless nights and anxiety, was already more than enough punishment, and that the "criminal contempt" label needed to be appealed, with the pipeline violating Indigenous people''s rights on land never ceded to the British colonisers before the creation of Canada nor to any Canadian government thereafter. cord-257903-rnuslepe 2012 cord-258915-lgee3ers 2020 In drawing together participants'' ideas about spaces, processes and mechanisms that might address these local challenges, we conclude the paper with implications that offer scope for further exploration and consideration in terms of how technology might support the operationalisation of local people''s ideas for improving face-to-face connections in age-friendly community settings. As described earlier, the interview data were coded to explore (a) opportunities to improve connections at a local level, i.e., factors that had the potential to impact negatively on people''s geographically proximate social relationships in terms of quality, quantity or satisfaction; and (b) participants'' engagement with technology in relation to their social lives generally. As described earlier, the interview data were coded to explore (a) opportunities to improve connections at a local level, i.e., factors that had the potential to impact negatively on people''s geographically proximate social relationships in terms of quality, quantity or satisfaction; and (b) participants'' engagement with technology in relation to their social lives generally. cord-259745-69wk591l 2020 cord-262085-y90w53xo 2020 BACKGROUND: Homeless experts and some federal housing officials are sounding the alarm that the patchwork of government efforts to address the coronavirus outbreak risks leaving out one group of acutely vulnerable people: the homeless. METHOD: The studies were identified using large-sized newspapers with international circulation RESULTS: With more cities suspecting community transmission of the novel coronavirus, people who sleep in shelters or hunker down outside already have a lower life expectancy and often have underlying health conditions that put them at greater risk if they develop COVID-19 (Global News, 2020). With more cities suspecting community transmission of the novel coronavirus, people who sleep in shelters or hunker down outside have a lower life expectancy and often have underlying health conditions that put them at greater risk if they develop COVID-19 (Global News, 2020) . cord-269343-qwgmn06t 2020 Overall, a growing body of evidence supports the nine potentially modifiable risk factors for dementia modelled by the 2017 Lancet Commission on dementia prevention, intervention, and care: less education, hypertension, hearing impairment, smoking, obesity, depression, physical inactivity, diabetes, and low social contact. 90 An individual-level meta-analysis of 19 observational studies of relatively younger adults included 404 840 participants'' data (mean baseline age 45·5 years; mean follow-up duration 14·9 years), reporting an increased incidence of all-cause dementia (HR 1·4, 95% CI 1·2-1·7) and clinically diagnosed Alzheimer''s disease (1·4, 1·1-1·7) in those who were physically inactive in the 10-year period before diagnosis. Little evidence of the effects of social interventions on dementia exists but a systematic review of low quality RCTs of 576 adults aged 60 or more years with normal cognition found facilitated meeting and discussion groups were associated with improved global cognition and increased brain volume at follow-up. cord-274459-781by93r 2020 cord-284972-61ayjej8 2020 cord-286705-biundkbv 2020 cord-288392-khjo6j8u 2020 cord-289846-i7xg1tpp 2020 cord-291924-1s1e6457 2018 CONCLUSIONS: Due to forceful leadership, sounder regulations, and intensive resources, China''s PHEMS has been improved at the preparation, readiness, and response stages; however, the recovery stage was still weak and could not meet the requirements of crisis management and preventive governance. We conducted a multistage sampling to select CDCs at different administration levels, selected all 32 provincial CDCs and used systematic random sampling to select municipal and county CDCs. As governmental funding is the most critical control point of public health emergency management for the CDCs [15] ,we used "governmental funding to CDCs per thousand people" as a basis to determine sample size [16] . In 2012, there were 3092 public health emergencies directly reported via the Disease Surveillance Information Management System, which accounted for 98.8%.The percentage of timely reporting by county CDCs emergency levels in 2012 was presented in Table 4 . cord-294966-3jolt83r 2020 cord-300452-dqb6em7g 2020 cord-300763-3ateeei3 2020 cord-305916-0pychvxi 2020 cord-306227-63qvvkvk 2020 cord-307709-o6biwypo 2020 cord-310556-ebh59adi 2020 This work has also resulted in the creation of the first measure of suicide ideation tailored specifically to the needs and lives of older people, the Geriatric Suicide Ideation Scale (Heisel and Flett 2006) , which assesses sociocultural and existential factors (i.e., its "Loss of Personal and Social Worth" and "Perceived Meaning in Life" subscales) in addition to thoughts and wishes to die and for suicide. cord-311398-uheb2cvg 2010 cord-311757-qbk4aapf 2020 cord-314084-gb7ggriv 2020 cord-318977-4ng6gxpv 2020 cord-321642-efv9ovx9 2020 cord-322636-2vp32ffg 2020 cord-322660-bis2arbu 2020 The guidelines cover specific issues associated with hospital passports, individual COVID‐19 care plans, the important role of families and carers, capacity to make decisions, issues associated with social distancing, ceiling of care/treatment escalation plans, mental health and challenging behavior, and caring for someone suspected of contracting or who has contracted SARS‐CoV‐2 within community or inpatient psychiatric settings. These teams provide a range of care and support to people with IDs, while during the current pandemic there will be an increased focus upon providing TABLE 1 Group at risk because they are clinically vulnerable due to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection who need particularly stringent social distancing measures Issues associated with diagnostic overshadowing, the views of parents, family members and carers, the required reasonable adjustments, communication needs, specialist mental health support, anticipatory care plans, any end-of-life or do not attempt cardiopulmonary resuscitation (DNACPR) discussions should be reported. cord-323466-r0n7448g 2020 cord-328045-12xr4mj4 2020 cord-330956-692irru4 2020 cord-332918-6kmbaswt 2020 cord-337889-90q4py0j 2020 cord-338189-j4hnldk4 2020 The easy spread of this virus made people to wear a mask as precautionary route, use gloves and hand sanitizer on a daily basis that resulted in generation of a massive amount of medical wastes in the environment. However, the lock down of the COVID-19 pandemic caused the air quality in many cities across the globe to improve and drop in water pollutions in some parts of the world. There are some factors that contribute to the risk of COVID-19 but they are probably felt differently by different socioeconomic groups (Lipsitch et al., 2020) -People who have had medical problems of diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, or even high blood pressure and cancer are at higher risk from coronavirus (Giannis et al., 2020; Fang et al., 2020; Zheng et al., 2020) . The major death cases of coronavirus outbreak are happening mainly in old people probably because of a poor immune system that allows rapid growth of viral infections. cord-356353-e6jb0sex 2020 Both practices rely upon and reinforce a pervasive appetite for digital input or feedback that we characterize as "data hunger." They also share a propensity to assemble insight and make meaning accretively-a propensity that we denote here as "world or meaning accretion." Throughout this article, we probe the dynamic interaction of social and machine learning by drawing examples from one genre of online social contention and connection in which the pervasive influence of machine learning is evident: namely, that which occurs across social media channels and platforms. In such settings, the data accretion upon which machine learning depends for the development of granular insights-and, on social media platforms, associated auctioning and targeting of advertising-compounds the cumulative, sedimentary effect of social data, making negative impressions generated by "revenge porn," or by one''s online identity having been fraudulently coopted, hard to displace or renew.
