Abstract:
Background. Nurses experience caring burdens, which can affect their caring behaviors. Caring for highly infectious patients, in particular COVID-19, is a new phenomenon and little is known about it. Considering that caring behaviors can be influenced by various factors and cultural differences of the society, it is necessary to conduct studies about caring behaviors and caring burdens. Thus, this study aimed to determine caring behavior and caring burden and their relationship with some associated factors among nurses who cared for patients with COVID-19. Materials and Methods. This cross-sectional, descriptive design study was conducted by census sampling on 134 nurses working in public health centers in East Guilan, the north of Iran, in 2021. The research instruments included the Caring Behavior Inventory (CBI-24) and the Caregiver Burden Inventory (CBI). Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data using SPSS software version 20 with a significant level of 0.05. Results. The mean score of caring behavior and caring burden in nurses was 126.50 (SD = 13.63) and 43.65 (SD = 25.16), respectively. There was a significant relationship between caring behavior and some demographic characteristics (education, place of living, and history of COVID-19) and between caring burden and some demographic characteristics (housing status, job satisfaction, intention to change job, and history of COVID-19) ( p < 0.05). Conclusions. Findings showed that despite the new emergence of COVID-19, the caring burden on nurses was moderate and they had good caring behavior. Despite these results, it is necessary for the relevant managers to pay special attention to protecting health workers during a national crisis such as COVID-19 so that they experience less caring burden and improve caring behavior.

Abstract:
Introduction: The long-term care in schizophrenia patients can cause care burdens, which will relate to the family's decision to do pasung. The perceived burden will be even heavier because of the COVID-19 pandemic. This review aims to identify the family care burden affecting pasung in schizophrenic patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: This scoping review was conducted by searching four databases, namely ProQuest, Science Direct, and EBSCO, and Google Scholar in the past ten years. This study uses the PRISMA 2009 protocol in filtering articles from the database. Researchers summarize based on the significance value for quantitative research, based on themes’ qualitative research, and discussed factors mentioned which may influence the family. Thus, we obtained 15 articles for final review. Results: The results obtained that the subjective burden felt by the family is a feeling of worry and sadness due to the patient's aggressive behavior and the safety of the patient, family, and environment. The objective burdens most felt by families are financial burdens, both medical costs, transportation to reach mental health services, and the cost of daily living. The COVID-19 pandemic will affect both types of care burdens, thereby affecting the quality of care for families with schizophrenia patients in pasung. Conclusion: Schizophrenia patients are one of the populations that are vulnerable to COVID-19. Nurse plays a role in the ability to overcome the burden of schizophrenia care and improve adaptation to the current pandemic to create optimal mental health in the community.

Abstract:
Background: The entire world experiences triple as well as multiple burdens of diseases with the co-existence of prevailing burden of communicable diseases and evolving heavy burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) along with the outburst of COVID-19 crisis. Materials and Methods: The study has been extracted from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019. Publicly available data related to COVID-19 and NCD burden from the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, COVID-19 Tracker, and Kerala Government’s Directorate of Health Services. Results: The burden of COVID-19 is larger in states with a higher prevalence of non-communicable diseases and in states that are further along in the epidemiological transition. Around 95 percent of the deceased had one or more comorbidities, and the majority of them had several comorbidities. NCDs such as Hypertension and diabetes, as well as coronary artery disease, chronic kidney disease, and cancer, are appeared as a common predictor of COVID-19 mortality. Conclusion: The COVID-19 action, as well as a sustained and enhanced emphasis on NCD diagnosis, intervention, and interrelated facets of healthcare system, are essential. Future policy interventions should be focus on whole sectors such as health, education, employment, poverty, and local governance to address the underlying social, economic, and environmental grounds of ill health including pandemic to mitigate the repercussions and to achieve the sustainable development goals.

Abstract:
This study aims to identify the social and psychological burdens placed on educators during the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan and to propose an optimal form of support. We investigated educators’ perceptions of psychological and socioeconomic anxieties and burdens, sense of coherence, and social capital using a questionnaire survey of 1000 educators in January 2021. Multivariate regression analyses were conducted to analyze the associations between the variables. Results: Approximately 80% of the respondents considered COVID-19 a formidable, life-threatening illness. Our results revealed that the higher the social capital, the greater the fear of COVID-19, and the higher the sense of coherence, the lower this fear. Conclusions: The anxiety burden of implementing infection prevention was higher than the anxiety burden associated with distance learning. The predictive factors for educators’ perceptions of burden included sense of coherence, gender, and age. Our findings suggest the importance of having the government and educational institutions provide multidimensional assistance that matches educators’ individual characteristics.

Relevance. Assessment of the burden of disease provides information on the economic consequences of the disease, allows you to assess the social significance, identify areas that require additional clinical and economic research, changes in methodological approaches to the organization of measures for the prevention, early detection and treatment of diseases.The aim. Assessment of the socioeconomic and global burden of COVID-19 in the Russian Federation (RF).Materials and methods. Identification and assessment of direct medical, direct non-medical, and indirect costs associated with the development of the coronavirus epidemic. When calculating the socioeconomic burden, the variant of calculations was chosen taking into account the prevalence of the disease. The sources of data on the epidemiology of the disease were data from the Ministry of Health and data from the Government of the RF.Results. The socioeconomic burden of COVID-19 in 2020 in the RF amounted to about 5.4 trillion rubles (5 % of nominal GDP in 2020) and was largely due to indirect costs due to GDP losses due to a 1.5-month period of self-isolation. The estimated global burden of disease is more than 4 million YLLs globally, of which in the RF 2,486.30 among men and 1,378.22 YLL among women.Conclusion. The epidemic of the new coronavirus infection has led to colossal economic losses in Russian society. The data presented underscore not only the clinical, but also the economic importance of investing in the development of strategies for the treatment and prevention of new coronavirus infection.

Thesis advisor: Joseph Quinn
The ease of spread of COVID-19 has posed a great challenge for governments, public health officials, and healthcare workers around the world. Leaders and officials need to make decisions that protect the health and well-being of their citizens, while balancing their rights as citizens and the stability of their economies. This study conducts a review of literature on COVID-19, the Spanish Flu, and the Swine Flu in an effort to understand the economic and health impacts of pandemics. Results show a clear trend suggesting the poor bear a greater burden of the impact of pandemics in regards to economic and health impacts. Further analysis suggests that these inequities are not limited to the United States healthcare system and remain apparent in national single-payer healthcare systems, like in the United Kingdom. To prevent similar disparities in future pandemics, governments should attempt to decrease inequality present in baseline health and economic measures

Abstract:
The Tour De France (TDF) is the third largest sporting event in the world and the biggest cycling race in terms of popularity and prestige. The event generates global media exposure and attracts millions of short- and long-term visitors each year, thus, TDF is extremely appealing for communities in search of profits. Using Linear Directional Mean (LDM) and semi-structured interviews (community and organization sides), this paper analyzes how TDF has spatially evolved through time by comparing the 2021 racetrack to other time intervals. Additionally, reasons of the potential shift in terms of spatial distribution are investigated considering current issues due to the COVID-19 pandemic that has severely affected the tourism sector and therefore, the benefits that communities were expecting to perceive by hosting TDF. Findings showed that the 2021 route deviated from previous editions time of the TDF history including 10 new stage cities that never hosted the event before. The respondent from the organization indicated the pandemic only indirectly affected the TDF route and that the location of the Grand Départ as well as the main internal constraints imposed to the organizers are key elements in the spatial distribution of the event. Interviewed communities acknowledged that there was risk while hosting TDF this year due to potential restrictive measures. However, they recognized that benefits brought by the race largely overweight potential negative impacts from the epidemic. Indeed, TDF remains a way to bring economic benefits, social cohesion, happiness, pride and satisfaction to hosting cities at a time when the tourism industry is at a standstill.
Le Tour de France (TDF) est le troisième événement sportif au monde et la plus grande course cycliste en termes de popularité et de prestige. L’événement génère une exposition médiatique mondiale et attire chaque année des millions de visiteurs à court et à long terme. Le TDF est donc extrêmement attrayant pour les communautés à la recherche de profits. À l’aide de la Direction Moyenne Linéaire (MLD) et d’interviews semi-structurées (côté communauté et organisation), ce mémoire analyse l’évolution spatiale du TDF au fil du temps en comparant le parcours de 2021 à d’autres intervalles temporelles de la course. En outre, les raisons du changement potentiel en termes de distribution spatiale sont étudiées en tenant compte des problèmes actuels dus à la pandémie de COVID-19 ayant gravement affecté le secteur du tourisme et, par conséquent, les avantages que les communautés espéraient percevoir en accueillant le TDF. Les résultats ont montré que l’itinéraire de 2021 s’écarte des éditions précédentes de l’histoire du TDF en incluant 10 nouvelles villes étapes qui n’ont jamais accueilli l’événement auparavant. Le répondant de l’organisation a indiqué que la pandémie n’a affecté qu’indirectement le parcours du TDF et que l’emplacement du Grand Départ ainsi que les principales contraintes internes imposées aux organisateurs sont des éléments clés dans la répartition spatiale de l’événement. Les communautés interrogées ont reconnu qu’il y avait un risque à accueillir le TDF cette année en raison des mesures restrictives potentielles. Cependant, elles ont admis que les bénéfices apportés par la course surpassaient largement les impacts négatifs potentiels dus à l’épidémie. En effet, le TDF reste un moyen d’apporter des effets économiques positifs, de la cohésion sociale, du bonheur, de la fierté et de la satisfaction aux villes hôtes à un moment où l’industrie du tourisme est au point mort.

Abstract:
Introduzione. Ad oggi restano ancora da scoprire le implicazioni a lungo termine per i pazienti che sopravvivono, dopo ospedalizzaizone, all'infezione da SARS-CoV-2, soprattutto per coloro che hanno contratto una forma severa di COVID-19. Obbiettivo. Misurare il carico di malattia residua ancora rilevabile a circa tre mesi e un anno dalla dimissione in pazienti sottoposti a procedure invasive di ventilazione durante la degenza indice. Materiali e metodi. È stato condotto uno studio osservazionale monocentrico includendo pazienti dimessi vivi dal ricovero ospedaliero con diagnosi principale di COVID-19 e sottoposti a procedure ventilatorie durante la degenza ospedaliera. I sintomi e un'ampia gamma di indagini strumentali ed esami TC sono stati valutati dopo circa tre mesi e un anno dalla dimissione indice da un team multidisciplinare utilizzando procedure standardizzate. Risultati. Tra marzo e giugno 2020 sono stati arruolati 203 pazienti che hanno accettato di sottoporsi a una visita ambulatoriale dopo tre mesi dalla dimissione. Circa il 60% dei pazienti aveva almeno un sintomo, il 6,5% aveva un basso livello di saturazione durante la lettura dell'ossimetria e l'85,0% aveva almeno un'anomalia dell'analisi del sangue. Più del 20% dei pazienti presentava almeno il 50% del parenchima polmonare affetto da anomalie. Durante la visita è stata richiesta una consulenza specialistica per il 21,2% dei soggetti. A livello globale, poco più del 20% dei pazienti presentava ancora una grave malattia residua da COVID-19. La durata della degenza ospedaliera superiore a 30 giorni era significativamente associata al rischio di avere una malattia residua grave. Conclusione. Un'ampia percentuale di pazienti presentava ancora segni clinici e strumentali di malattia residua circa due mesi dopo la dimissione e ad un anno, seppur in una percentuale più ridotta si protraevano anomalie. Fornire una valutazione coordinata e multidisciplinare a lungo termine, attraverso la costruzione di protocolli standardizzati dovrebbe essere presa in considerazione per tali pazienti, anche alla luce della programmazione sanitaria futura.
Background. Long-term implications for patients surviving SARS-CoV-2 infection, mostly for those who experienced critical COVID-19, remain to be uncovered. Objective. To measure the burden of residual disease still detectable approximately three months and one year after discharge in patients underwent to mechanical ventilation during the index hospital stay. Methods. A single-center observational study was performed by including patients discharged alive from hospital admission with main diagnosis of COVID-19, and who underwent mechanical ventilation during hospital stay. Symptoms and a wide range of instrumental signs and CT exams were assessed after approximately three months and one years from index discharge by a multidisciplinary team using standardized procedures. Results. Between March and June 2020, 203 patients were enrolled and agreed to undergo an outpatient visit after two months since discharge. About 60% patients had at least one symptom, 6.5% had low level of saturation during oximetry reading and 85.0% had at least a blood test abnormality. More than 20% patients had at least 50% of the lung parenchyma affected by abnormalities. During the visit, a specialist consultation was requested for 21.2% of the subjects. Globally, just above 20% of the patients still presented severe COVID-19 Residual Illness. Duration of hospital stay longer than 30 days was significantly associated with the risk of having severe residual illness. Conclusion. A large proportion of patients still had clinical and instrumental signs of residual illness approximately two months after discharge. Provision of a coordinated, multidisciplinary long-term assessment should be considered for such patients experiencing critical COVID-19 disease, also in the light of future health planning

Abstract:
This research program explores the experiences of Spanish self-initiated expatriate (SIE) nurses in Germany and repatriated from Germany, aiming to understand how they perceive the influence of expatriation on their self-concept and identity. Expatriation usually implies a context of decreased sources of social validation, due to the disruption in expatriates’ environment. The process of adjusting to a novel sociocultural setting can pose challenges to the self-concept and to the identities that sustain it, while also providing opportunities for personal development. Despite the relevance of identity for psychological well-being, the implications of expatriation for expatriates’ self-concept and identities remain an under-researched topic in the field. The present research investigates this issue from a constructivist paradigm and through qualitative methodology. It is based in literature on expatriation and identity, and employs, as method of data collection, semi-structured interviews with Spanish SIE nurses in Germany (n=20); Spanish nurses repatriated from Germany (n=10); and key informants (KIs) from private and public organisations (n=7). The research program comprises three studies. Study One explores the perceptions of KIs who are knowledgeable of the context of Spanish SIE nurses in Germany. Study Two focuses on Spanish SIE nurses in Germany and repatriated from Germany, exploring their expatriation experiences in detail. Finally, Study Three focuses on a group of participants from Study Two, aiming to understand how the COVID-19 pandemic affected their experiences. The research program addresses the research aim through five research questions: RQ1 – How do the motives for self-initiated expatriation and the pre-departure information of Spanish SIE nurses in Germany affect their expatriation experience? RQ2 – How do cross-cultural interactions affect self-conceptions of Spanish SIE nurses in Germany? RQ3 – How does the expatriation experience affect the perceived personal development of Spanish SIE nurses in Germany? RQ4 – What are the push/pull forces affecting the intentions of Spanish SIE nurses in Germany regarding continued expatriation/repatriation? RQ5 – How did the COVID-19 pandemic affect the expatriation experience of Spanish SIE nurses in Germany? The findings show that low proficiency in the host country language (HCL) and the challenging workplace interactions that ensued, threatened both the self-concept and the professional identity of the Spanish nurses. Employment in lower skilled or unskilled nursing jobs in Germany posed further challenges to their role identity. The language barrier and perceived cultural differences prompted their reliance on social networks of fellow Spaniards, mostly other nurses, from whom they obtained social validation. Over time, the participants’ higher proficiency in the HCL led to increased positive feedback in the workplace, which together with perceptions of personal growth and achievement, enabled them to rebuild positive self-conceptions and validate their professional identity. An important outcome of the expatriation experience was the nurses perceived themselves as stronger, self-confident, and resilient, after overcoming challenges in Germany. The nurses’ motivation for self-initiated expatriation, based on the strong push of unemployment in Spain, impacted negatively on their experiences in Germany, as they were not proactive in acquiring reliable pre-departure information (RQ1). This, in turn, translated into unrealistic expectations regarding living and working conditions in Germany, which contributed to the challenges posed by language barriers and unskilled nursing positions. The nurses’ low proficiency in the HCL translated into challenging workplace interactions, which threatened their positive self-conceptions, while perceived cultural differences between home and host countries reinforced cultural identity salience amongst the participants (RQ2). The research found that restored positive self-conceptions and a strong perception of personal growth and achievement enabled personal identity development (RQ3). Family in the home country was the main pull force for repatriation amongst the Spanish nurses, together with cultural differences, home country lifestyle and the possibility to work in their first language, while the main pull force for continued expatriation was professional and financial stability in the host country (RQ4). Finally, the nurses experienced a psychological burden due to an information overload about the impact of COVID-19 in Spain, concern regarding their families in the home country, and travel restrictions (RQ5). Nevertheless, the pandemic reinforced the participants’ intention to continue their expatriation, due to their perceptions of personal safety in the host country, and negative appraisal of job and economic prospects in Spain. This research program contributes to theory building on the influence of expatriation on self-concept and identity, by showing the effects of low proficiency in the HCL and unskilled positions on self-conceptions and role identity, the salience of cultural identity in the face of cultural differences, and personal development during expatriation. The results provide evidence of the connection between language and identity in the context of expatriation, underlining how language influences self-conceptions and social identification. Together with providing insights into identity outcomes of expatriation, the research extends current understanding of SIEs’ experiences, which are still less known than those of Assigned Expatriates (AEs). Specifically, it studies a group of SIEs in the type of professional roles that expatriation literature has tended to overlook, and shows how their experiences differ from those of high-status SIEs from highly developed countries. In terms of practical implications, the findings allow recommendations for SIEs and the organisations involved with them to be advanced. The results underline the need to ensure that SIEs acquire reliable pre-departure information and achieve sufficient HCL proficiency before entering the host country workplace. Furthermore, cross-cultural training for SIEs and HCNs could promote cultural awareness amongst multinational teams, thus buffering the effects of cultural differences in workplace interactions.

This study aims to evaluate the psychological burden of the COVID-19 pandemic in the students of the University of Porto, the second largest Portuguese university, and to uncover factors associated with mental health indicators. We used an online survey to perform a cross-sectional study that evaluated students' perceptions, daily activities, and psychological state during the pandemic. Depression symptoms and risk were measure by the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and resilience levels were quantified by the 9-item Resilience Evaluation Scale. Self-perceived levels of anxiety and mental health status were evaluated. Among 1751 responses obtained, 1447 were included. Most students were female (72.3%) and were taking a Masters degree (58.4%). The course with more responses was Engineering (25.5%), followed by Medicine (13.2%). The prevalence rates for higher anxiety levels, depression risk and low resilience levels were 66.7%, 37.3% and 24.9%, respectively. The factors associated with better psychological outcomes were being male, spending more time studying, having a job, performing extracurricular activities, physical exercise and relaxing activities. In contrast, spending more time watching news, difficulty accessing on-line teaching and absence of contact with family or friends, were associated with worse psychological indicators. Although all areas of formation presented substantial levels of depressive symptoms, Architectures/Arts, Sciences and Humanities scored significantly more in the depression scale. Medicine students had significantly higher resilience levels compared to other areas of formation. The COVID-19 outbreak had a considerable impact in the psychological state of University of Porto's students. Therefore, measures should be taken to reduce the psychological burden caused by the pandemic.

This study aims to evaluate the psychological burden of the COVID-19 pandemic in the students of the University of Porto, the second largest Portuguese university, and to uncover factors associated with mental health indicators. We used an online survey to perform a cross-sectional study that evaluated students' perceptions, daily activities, and psychological state during the pandemic. Depression symptoms and risk were measure by the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and resilience levels were quantified by the 9-item Resilience Evaluation Scale. Self-perceived levels of anxiety and mental health status were evaluated. Among 1751 responses obtained, 1447 were included. Most students were female (72.3%) and were taking a Masters degree (58.4%). The course with more responses was Engineering (25.5%), followed by Medicine (13.2%). The prevalence rates for higher anxiety levels, depression risk and low resilience levels were 66.7%, 37.3% and 24.9%, respectively. The factors associated with better psychological outcomes were being male, spending more time studying, having a job, performing extracurricular activities, physical exercise and relaxing activities. In contrast, spending more time watching news, difficulty accessing on-line teaching and absence of contact with family or friends, were associated with worse psychological indicators. Although all areas of formation presented substantial levels of depressive symptoms, Architectures/Arts, Sciences and Humanities scored significantly more in the depression scale. Medicine students had significantly higher resilience levels compared to other areas of formation. The COVID-19 outbreak had a considerable impact in the psychological state of University of Porto's students. Therefore, measures should be taken to reduce the psychological burden caused by the pandemic.

Abstract:
Abstract Public debts have exploded to levels unprecedented in recent history as governments responded to the COVID-19 pandemic. These rising levels of debt prompted apocalyptic warnings about the dangers of heavy debts—about the drag they will place on economic growth and the burden they impose on future generations. This book adds the other side of the equation: drawing on history, the authors provide a defense of public debt. Their account shows that the ability of governments to borrow has played a critical role in meeting emergencies, from wars and pandemics to economic and financial crises, as well as in funding essential public goods and services such as transportation, education, and healthcare. In these ways, the capacity to issue debt has been integral to state building. Transactions in public debt securities have also contributed to developing private financial markets and, through this channel, to economic growth. None of this is to deny that debt problems, debt crises, and debt defaults occur. But these dramatic events, which attract much attention, are not the entire story. In Defense of Public Debt redresses the balance. The book develops its arguments historically, recounting two millennia of public debt experience. It deploys a comprehensive database to identify the factors behind rising public debts and the circumstances under which high debts are successfully reduced. Finally, it brings the story up to date, describing the role of public debt in managing, from 2020 onward, the COVID-19 pandemic and suggesting a way forward once governments, now more heavily indebted than before, finally emerge from the crisis.

Abstract:
The proverbial benefits of prevention over cure are self-evident—and yet we are reluctant to invest in staying healthy. Resolution of this age-old dilemma begins with a timeless truth: the benefits of good health come at a cost: prevention is not better than cure at any price. That logic leads to a testable—and refutable—proposition: that prevention should be favoured when an imminent, high-risk, high-impact hazard can be averted at relatively low cost. Application of this idea helps to explain why cigarette smoking is still commonplace, why the world was not ready for the COVID-19 pandemic, why the idea of a ‘sin tax’ is misconceived, why billions still do not have access to safe sanitation, why the response to climate change has been so slow, and why public health advice often falls on deaf ears. Much more money and effort are invested in health promotion and prevention today than is commonly thought, but the enormous avoidable burden of illness is reason to seek incentives for investing still more. The principles, together with a series of case studies in diverse settings, offer 12 lessons for prevention. These are methods and motives for shifting the balance away from reactive medical treatment, bypassing illness and injury, to promote better health and well-being.

Abstract:
Estevam Matiazzi’s poetics are memorably reflected in the title of his colorful poem collection, most of which are written in poetic prose, with singular didacticism. “Life Seen Through Windows: before and beyond them” is a work marked by movements and approaches in a mutating world view, that established relations with its time. ‘Drunken times’, actually, pandemic times, Covid-19 times. In a cathartic process, the poetic persona gazes outside his window, a narrow spaces’ view that creates an egregore of love. Engaged in the notion of roughness within the historical moment, he creates poems, comforting hearts in distress and full of uncertainties. The title has a direct connection with the works’ poetry; it brings relations in constant change, a shape still undetermined, a state beyond any mold, any casted matter. Beyond anything pre-fixed, anything pre-established. Thus, in a language of light and shadows, “Life Seen Through Windows: before and beyond them” is a beacon in the darkness of these pandemic times (Márcia Lembrança). Life Seen Through Windows – behind and in front of them are 40 poems from quarantine, written in 2020, in the context of Covid-19 pandemic. The view from the windows in the apartment where I live in Belo Horizonte, side by side with the song “Window’s Scenery” – written by Lô Borges and Fernando Brant for the album Corner Club, released in 1972, year in which I was born –, are the inspiration for these poems. Nearly 50 years after this masterpiece, between the slot that remains between buildings, I watch, beyond the windows, the mountain ranges that still encircle the capitol of Minas Gerais, either under blue, open skies or under thick grey clouds… From behind windows, I listen to radios, watch screens and see continued ailments; deforested, burned Amazon, slighted traditional cultures; inflation on the rise, democracy under threat; drama and mire, plots and fire…

Abstract:
AbstractWhile the world is battling the new coronavirus known as SARS-COV-2, public health and nutrition services in India are getting disrupted and derailed. It is pertinent not to overlook the existing gaps in our journey towards attaining the holistic sustainable development goals (SDGs). In fact, it is now well-established that comorbidities, especially malnutrition, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and other respiratory or kidney problems exacerbate the pathogenesis of COVID-19 because of an already compromised immune system. The whole world is off track in achieving SDG 2, known as Zero Hunger, by 2030. At the current pace, approximately 17 countries including India will fail to even reach low hunger by 2030. India ranks 104 out of 117 countries as per the used metric, the global hunger index. Furthermore, these projections do not account for the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which may worsen hunger and undernutrition in the near term and affect countries’ trajectories into the future.The author underscores the serious adverse impacts of COVID-19 on public health, nutrition, and food security in India and other low- and middle-income countries. Estimates show that 135 million persons were hungry before the pandemic. By the end of 2020, the number will likely increase to 265 million. India carries a heavy burden of multiple forms of malnutrition including undernutrition, hunger, micronutrient deficiencies as well as overweight, and obesity. India’s public health and nutritional policies must urgently address these problems. Measures taken by the government during the pandemic to counter its negative impact on the nutrition of women, children, migrant labor, and other vulnerable populations are enumerated. The response of the international community to tackle COVID-19 related nutritional challenges and India’s policy measures for ensuring nutrition and food security are discussed.

AbstractContact tracing is currently a manual and laborious task that requires individuals to recall their interactions with people many days in the past. As a remedy, phones can be used to play a significant role in the response to the COVID-19 pandemic, by easing the burden of healthcare staff. Through novel and sophisticated technology, apps can be used to track infected people, issue quarantine guidelines, and provide the latest news to the public. Along with general public measures, apps can contribute significantly to keeping infection levels low. Generally, digital contract tracing can identify and warn people who may be at risk of being infected because they were in close physical proximity of someone who later tested positive for COVID-19.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this chapter Cilliers covers Africa’s unique epidemiological history from the early migration of homo sapiens to the devastation of HIV/AIDS and, more recently, the unfolding impact of COVID-19. It explains how humans’ proximity to nature, slow urbanisation and Africa’s distinct climatic conditions have led to an unusually high burden of communicable diseases, particularly the HIV/AIDS pandemic. The chapter also explains the double-burden of communicable and non-communicable disease evident in Africa. The chapter highlights the central role that infrastructural improvements and urban planning play in supporting better health outcomes and impact that poor basic infrastructure and lack of urban planning has in much of Africa. The chapter places a particular emphasis on the central role of potable water and water-borne sanitation in preventing the spread of disease. Finally, scenario analysis is used to demonstrate the relationship between health and economics.

Abstract:
AbstractCOVID-19 has disrupted the health systems in low- and middle-income countries and has consequently unleashed a global health crisis. The lack of preparedness is visible at multiple levels of the healthcare system in India. The health system is overwhelmed by the influx of COVID-19 cases, dislodging all other patients. An inadequate healthcare infrastructure with less than optimal human resources along with a rising case-load and serious supply chain disruptions, has resulted in fatigue, frustration, and anger among the health workforce on the one hand, and in an atmosphere of fear among the patients and healthcare workers, on the others.The media is filled with messages on the COVID-19 crisis. Forgotten in the hyperbole is that numerous other diseases continue to devastate India’s population. Of these, the most important is TB. India continues to bear the highest burden of TB in the world accounting for an estimated 2.8 million cases every year and killing more than 400,000 persons annually. TB kills 1,200 Indians every day.The symptoms of COVID-19 and TB are very similar. Both are respiratory air-borne diseases. Both diseases are heavily stigmatized. And both are associated with mental health problems. Gender disparities are apparent in TB and COVID-19, but the gendered aspects of these diseases is ignored in programming. The author argues that for all these reasons, these two diseases should be addressed in tandem. It is time to fight COVID-19 and TB just as it is time to invest in public health.

Abstract:
AbstractThe important role of social and behavior change and communication strategies in the prevention of infection is discussed. These strategies have two complementary, albeit distinct roles: 1) educate citizens on the health risks of COVID-19; and 2) promote desired behaviors to prevent infection.The authors underscore that messages for the prevention of COVID-19 should be clear and consistent and should be based on scientific evidence. These messages need to be reinforced to promote positive behavior change. They should be empathetic and inclusive and should counter misinformation and fake news. Government of India’s citizen engagement platform ‘MyGov’ has rolled-out a series of campaigns for the prevention of COVID-19. Civil society organizations have complemented the official campaign. The Population Foundation of India developed the Corona Ki Adalat (The court of corona) animation series to disseminate key messages and reinforce a sense of solidarity around the fight against COVID-19.India (and the world) has, for the first time, witnessed an amalgamation of science and mainstream media. The collaboration of the media and public health workers and doctors has been commendable. The authors illustrate this with examples of personalities who stepped-up and gave their time to the media to convey important messages to the public. The last few months have truly witnessed the power of the media and behavior change communications. Until a vaccine becomes widely available, the only way to protect people from COVID-19 and to minimize the burden it places on the public health system is to promote widespread behavior change. And this can only happen through the collaborative efforts of the government, media, public health experts, and civil society organizations.

Abstract:
Ontario long-term care (LTC) home residents have experienced disproportionately high morbidity and mortality, both from COVID-19 and from the conditions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. There are several measures that could be effective in preventing COVID-19 outbreaks, hospitalizations, and deaths in Ontario’s LTC homes, if implemented. First, temporary staffing could be minimized by improving staff working conditions. Second, homes could be further decrowded by a continued disallowance of three- and four-resident rooms and additional temporary housing for the most crowded homes. Third, the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection in staff could be minimized by approaches that reduce the risk of transmission in communities with a high burden of COVID-19.

Calls for greater recognition of and attention to the influence of sex and gender on health have been longstanding, and the need for this has only been amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic. Apart from the direct effects of biological sex and socially-constructed gender differences on COVID-19 morbidity and mortality – with higher rates of severe disease and deaths among men, pandemic responses have also amplified existing gender inequalities, with women bearing the heaviest burden of the indirect health and socio-economic consequences. The interactions between sex, gender and COVID-19 are complex and evolving, and further shaped and influenced by context and the intersecting influence of other social determinants and/or identities (such as race, ethnicity, LGBTQIA or migrant status, etc.), which have exacerbated the devastating health impacts for specific women, men and gender-diverse people. Recognising both the urgency of integrating sex and gender into COVID-19 research, and the roadblocks in the way of achieving this, the United Nations University International Institute for Global Health (UNU-IIGH) and the School of Public Health at the University of the Western Cape co- convened a collaborative gender and COVID-19 research agenda-setting exercise.

Full text
Abstract:
Multiple jurisdictions have adopted or adapted paid sick leave policies to reduce the likelihood of employees infected with SARS-CoV-2 presenting to work, which can lead to the spread of infection in workplaces. During the COVID-19 pandemic, paid sick leave has been associated with an increased likelihood of workers staying at home when symptomatic. Paid sick leave can support essential workers in following public health measures. This includes paid time off for essential workers when they are sick, have been exposed, need to self-isolate, need time off to get tested, when it is their turn to get vaccinated, and when their workplace closes due to an outbreak. In the United States, the introduction of a temporary paid sick leave, resulted in an estimated 50% reduction in the number of COVID-19 cases per state per day. The existing Canada Recovery Sickness Benefit (CRSB) cannot financially protect essential workers in following all public health measures, places the administrative burden of applying for the benefit on essential workers, and neither provides sufficient, nor timely payments. Table 1 lists the characteristics of a model paid sick leave program as compared with the CRSB. Implementation of the model program should be done in a way that is easy to navigate and quick for employers.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: To investigate the immune response and related clinical outcomes of healthy adults who received coronavirus vaccine booster compared with those who did not receive the vaccine booster. Condition being studied: The COVID-19 pandemic, which has spread since 2019, has created a huge disease and economic burden on the world. A large number of clinical trials have verified the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccine. Previous studies have found that the serum conversion rate and antibody level of those vaccinated after the first two doses of COVID-19 vaccine continue to decrease, and the efficacy of the vaccine will decrease over time after the first two doses. Therefore, in order to maintain the protective efficacy of the vaccine, The need for a vaccine booster shot to achieve the expected goal of long-term effective prevention of the novel coronavirus has become a focus of discussion around the world.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: The aim of this systematic review is to compare the accuracy of artificial intelligence algorithms with radiologist panels in CT interpretation in covid-19. Condition being studied: COVID-19 disease was reported as the cause of the outbreak of pneumonia at the end of 2019. One of the main complications of COVID-19 is pulmonary involvement which could be diagnosed by CT-scan dominantly. Because of the increasing rate of these patients along with considering patients in remote areas, CT interpretations are a heavy burden on radiologists. Therefore artificial intelligence algorithms have become critical and time-saving systems in decision-making for these patients.
