Abstract:
The politics of science, or better still, the political science of global politics is what the world is battling, concerning the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic, today. Whereas scientific disciplines such as virology and epidemiology would usually take centre stage when an outbreak such as Covid-19 strikes, and now owing to the vacuum that has been created by conflicting and contradictory information from health experts on Covid-19, global health is opened up to, or left up to, political giants. Health matters of virology and epidemiology surrounding Covid-19 have, thus, been reduced to issues of politicking. The World Health Organisation's voice (WHO), despite its sustained campaign and provision of information on Covid-19, is drowned and almost silenced by the number of health authorities and experts that have come out to refute mainstream information and strategies on combating and managing Covid-19. As such, the politicization of Covid-19 and the coloniality of knowledge and information surrounding Covid-19 may very well be the main issue of contention than the Covid-19 itself. This paper, therefore, seeks to unmask the political dimensions that are camouflaged by the Covid-19 pandemic and expose the real issues that Covid-19 has allowed to thrive and are, as a result, sustained by the Covid-19 crisis. Using the qualitative research methodology, I set out to discuss and analyse the debates on Covid-19 as have been proffered in the public domain. Thus, the method of research is a desktop analysis of academic articles, newspaper articles, social media pieces and mainstream television pieces, among others. I offer a decolonial account on Covid-19.

Abstract:
The tourism industry represents a significant part of the global economy. However, tourism demand is very sensitive to crisis events, such as economic crises, epidemics, pandemics, natural disasters and terrorist attacks. Regarding this, the primary research goal of the paper is to analyze the impact of the Covid-19 disease on global tourism. During 2020, in order to prevent further spread of this contagious disease, almost all countries in the world have introduced a ban on movement, closing of borders and other important health measures. The review of the relevant literature provided in the paper shows that the introduced measures have a negative impact on the global hospitality, travelling and tourism industry.

Abstract:
The unprecedented global pandemic of COVID-19 creates many problems. No country in the world is ready to deal with this pandemic and some of them do not know how to overcome this pandemic. The victims of this pandemic (human and non-human) is very big and soaring every day. There are millions of infected and thousands of deaths around the world. At the same time, there are no available effective vaccines. The only available vaccine is for emergency used that we don’t know yet exactly the efficacy and the side effects of it. This situation creates many moral and ethical problems. We try to resolve some moral problems in the light of magisterial teachings to know how to answer some moral problems related to global COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract:
Att hantera konsekvenserna av klimatförändringarna är en av mänsklighetens störstautmaningar. Forskare, förespråkare och andra aktörer har länge försökt kommunicera tillallmänheten om klimatförändringar, men det tycks vara svårare än väntat. En paradox haruppstått som innebär att ju mer fakta som presenteras, desto mindre oro. Ett tydligt exempelpå var och hur det kan komma till uttryck är i medier. Ytterligare en global utmaning är denpågående covid-19-pandemin. I ett tidigt skede observerade vi att medierapporteringen påolika sätt började koppla samman covid-19-pandemin med klimatförändringarna. Syftet meddenna studie är att undersöka hur klimatkommunikationen tar sig uttryck under covid-19-pandemin via debattartiklar. Metoden för undersökningen var en latent innehållsanalys ochresultatet analyserades med hjälp av Per Espen Stoknes modell om de fem psykologiskabarriärerna samt teori om strategier inom klimatkommunikation. Resultatet visar attklimatkommunikationen uttrycktes på olika sätt genom både barriärer och strategier, men attkommunikationen till överhängande del uttrycktes genom strategier. Studien kan ökaförståelsen för hur klimatförändringar kan kommuniceras för att skapa klimatengagemangoch kan därmed fungera som en språngbräda för fortsatt forskning.
Dealing with the consequences of climate change is one of humanity's greatest challenges.Researchers, advocates and other actors have long tried to communicate to the public aboutclimate change, but it seems to be more difficult than expected. A paradox has arisen whichmeans that the more facts that are presented, the less concern. A clear example of where andhow it can be expressed is in the media. Another global challenge is the ongoing covid-19pandemic. At an early stage, we began to observe how different types of media started to linkthe covid-19 pandemic to climate change. Based on the background of climatecommunication and this observation, the purpose of this study is to investigate how climatecommunication is expressed during the covid-19 pandemic via debate articles. A latentcontent analysis was performed and the results was analyzed with Per Espen Stoknes modelon the five psychological barriers and theory on strategies in climate communication. Theresults show that climate communication was expressed in different ways through bothbarriers and strategies, but mainly through strategies. The study can further increase theunderstanding of how climate change can be communicated to create climate commitmentand can thus serve as a springboard for further research.

Abstract:
Earlier research has identified challenges in leading global virtual teams (GVTs). However, when the Covid-19 pandemic hit the world globally, even GVTs had to shift to work from home instead of an office. Hence, the purpose of this thesis is to investigate how challenges of leading GVTs have been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. Identified challenges, including before the pandemic and additional ones that were recognized during it, are introduced. The thesis implements semi-structured interviews with leaders of GVTs to get results in line with the purpose. The results indicate that existing challenges have changed depending on what industry the GVT works in and what restrictions members face due to the pandemic. Additionally, the new challenges that were experienced during the pandemic are distractions, work/life balance, and dealing with isolation. Further challenges are having the right equipment to work comfortably, recruiting and onboarding new staff
Tidigare undersökningar har identifierat utmaningar med att leda globala virtuella team (GVT). När Covid-19 pandemin drabbade världen över påverkade det till och med GVT, som därefter behövde arbeta hemifrån istället för på ett kontor. Denna uppsats syftar därmed till att undersöka hur utmaningar med att leda GVTs har påverkats av Covid-19 pandemin. Utmaningar med att leda GVTs har identifierats i tidigare studier och inkluderar både innan pandemin och nya som har uppstått under den. För att undersöka detta genomförs semi- strukturerade intervjuer med ledare av GVTs. Resultaten indikerar att befintliga utmaningar har förändrats beroende på vilken bransch teamet arbetar i och vilka restriktioner medlemmarna står inför på grund av pandemin. Dessutom är de nya utmaningarna som uppkommit under pandemin distraktioner, balansen mellan arbete och fritid, och att hantera isolering. Ytterligare utmaningar är att de anställda har rätt utrustning för att arbeta bekvämt, rekrytering och att introducera nyanställda.

Abstract:
The conflict between anthropocentric and sociocentric activities of the State is vividly reflected in the situation that has arisen against the backdrop of the global problem – the worldwide coronavirus pandemic. The spread of epidemics and pandemics, both local and global, has been a challenge to humanity for millennia, and only the decisive steps of the authorities and the cooperation of international organizations have been able to fight against epidemics and pandemics. The socio-economic challenges of global development (imbalances in the economic development of different countries, poverty and hunger, low incomes in many countries, make it impossible to pay for medical services, buy essential medicines, provide healthy and nutritious food and provide an adequate level of immunity; ethnic movements of people; world economic crises; participation of the State in international trade and inability of the domestic economy to meet its needs, particularly public health needs; low financial provision of health care.

Abstract:
With the outbreak of COVID-19, the number of physical conferences has decreased which impacts hotels’ revenue from conference business. In response to the decrease in conferences and conference revenue, hotels have developed strategies to manage the loss. For each hotel, they developed different strategies according to the situation they faced. This research is going to take hotels in Gotland as samples to find out the strategies that hotels have developed in response to the loss of conference business and how these strategies developed. The result of this research showed that there were two kinds of strategies hotels have developed which are proactive and inactive strategies. In addition, hotels’ perception of COVID-19 has an impact on the development of strategies.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Covid-19 är en luftburen infektionssjukdom med hög smittorisk som främst överförs via droppsmitta. Nationella samt internationella försiktighetsåtgärder har framtagits i syfte att minska smittspridningen av viruset. Folkhälsomyndigheten har skärpt rekommendationerna för gravida samtidigt som omprioriteringar görs inom hälso- och sjukvården. Syfte: Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka barnmorskors erfarenheter av att arbeta i patientnära vård under virusutbrottet covid-19. Metod: Studien var en tvärsnittsstudie med kvantitativ ansats. Datainsamling har gjorts via en webbenkät som besvarats anonymt. Resultat: Av de 159 respondenter som svarat på studien upplevde majoriteten en ökad stress samt en oro att bli smittad av covid-19 och föra smittan vidare. En femtedel av barnmorskorna upplevde ett nedsatt psykiskt välbefinnande. Slutsats: Riktlinjer på nationell nivå för simulering, skyddsutrustning och tydlig information för barnmorskor kring arbetet i patientnära vård under covid-19 efterfrågas. Detta i syfte att skapa trygghet i arbetet, att inte bli smittade eller föra smittan vidare.
Background: Covid-19 is a highly contagious airborne infectious disease which primarily spreads via droplets when throat or nasal secretions are released into the air. Precautions have been implemented worldwide with the intent to minimize the spread of the disease. The Public Health Agency of Sweden has implemented new and improved recommendations. Purpose: The aim for this study was to investigate the midwife’s firsthand experiences working intimately with patients during the outbreak of the covid-19 pandemic. Method: The study was a cross- sectional study with a quantitative method. The data was gathered throughout anonymous online questionnaires answered by midwives in Sweden. Result: Of the 159 respondents in the study, the majority reported an increased level of stress and anxiety related to becoming ill or transferring the virus to others. One in five respondents experienced a decrease in mental wellbeing. Conclusion: National guidelines for midwives regarding practice simulations, protective gear and comprehensive information concerning the work in near proximity to the patient was desired. Midwives called for this to ensure a safe working environment, and to avoid transferring the virus to their colleagues and patients.

Abstract:
Healthcare systems and medical services all over the world have been facing a significant reliability crisis that has peaked in the past couple of decades from a series of criticisms regarding inequality. It is well-established that the inequality problem, especially in the Latin American region is an abiding and deep-routed phenomenon particularly in regards to gendered relationships, which has only recently been given the necessary attention.  Therefore, this study investigates the equality of healthcare access from a gendered perspective, as a result of gender inequality in Mexico. The foregoing issue shall be analysed by giving an overview of the pre-existing situation in Mexico and by examining the recent data from 2020 and 2021 resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. In this context, gender inequality in the country will be analysed from a theoretical perspective, while statistical data will be used to examine the possible existence of a pattern and the societal influences on it in relation to healthcare. In times like these, when the whole planet has been affected by a pandemic, the ongoing discrimination and inequalities regarding healthcare access have been brought to the surface. Many discussions have taken place regarding racial inequality in the sector and its effects on minorities such as black or immigrant communities globally. However, the focus given to the gender inequality in the health sector and how it has been affected by the pandemic is minimal. For this reason, this study introduces an innovative and relevant perspective to the current healthcare discussion in connection to gender inequality in Mexico.

Abstract:
Introduktion: I Sverige beräknas 25 procent i åldersgruppen 16–29 år lida av någon form av psykisk ohälsa följt av 20 procent i åldersgruppen 30–44 år (Folkhälsomyndigheten, 2019d). Enligt United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) (u.å.b) så är covid-19 pandemin den största hälsokrisen i vår tid och många av de välkända riskfaktorerna för psykisk ohälsa, så som stress, ensamhet och oro, kan bli allt mer förekommande. Syfte: Studien syftar till att inhämta information kring vilket samband det finns mellan covid-19 pandemin och psykisk ohälsa i åldersgruppen 18–44 år i Sverige. Metod: En kvantitativ tvärsnittsstudie som inhämtat data genom en webbenkät där ett bekvämlighetsurval har använts. Enkäten besvarades av 157 respondenter av båda könen i åldrarna 18–44 år och resultaten analyserades med hjälp av en deskriptiv analys, korstabeller samt chi-två tester. Resultat: Resultaten visar att en ökning med 7,1 procent har skett bland de som uppger att de upplever psykiska besvär dagligen/några gånger i veckan innan pandemin (19,7 procent) jämfört med under pandemin (26,8 procent). Vidare uppger 52,2 procent av respondenterna att deras psykiska mående har försämrats till följd av pandemin. Slutsats: Den här studien visar på att det psykiska måendet kan ha försämrats till följd av covid-19 pandemin bland respondenterna. Då ett bekvämlighetsurval har använts så är studiens resultat ej generaliserbara till resterande befolkningen i åldersgruppen 18–44 år. Vidare studier inom ämnet som inkluderar fler deltagare kan vara nödvändiga för planering av framtida arbete för att förbättra den psykiska hälsan i denna åldersgrupp under och efter pandemin.
Introduction: It is estimated that 25 percent of youth between the ages 16-29 and 20 percent of the population between the ages 30-44 in Sweden suffer from some sort of mental illness (Folkhälsomyndigheten, 2019d). The covid-19 pandemic is the biggest health crisis of our time and many of the well known risk factors in mental illness, such as stress, loneliness and anxiety could be on the rise, according to the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) (u.å.b). Aim: The purpose of the study is to collect information around the connection of the covid-19 pandemic and mental illness in the age span 18-44 in Sweden. Methods: A quantitative cross-sectional study that has collected data through an online survey where a convenience sample has been used. The survey was answered by 157 respondents of both sexes between the ages 18-44 and the result was analyzed with the help of descriptive analysis, cross tables and chi-square tests. Results: The result shows that there has been an increase of 7,1 percent amongst respondents that experience mental problems daily/a few times a week before the pandemic (19,7 percent) compared to the time during the pandemic (26,8 percent). Furthermore, 52,2 percent state that their mental well-being has worsened as a result of the pandemic. Conclusion: This study shows that the mental well-being of the respondents may have been worsened as a result of the covid-19 pandemic. The result of the study is not generalizable amongst the population of Sweden in the age span 18 to 44, as a convenience sample has been used. Further studies in the field that include more respondents may be necessary in the planning of future work of improving the mental health of those age group during and after the pandemic.

Abstract:
Covid-19, the medical community officially recognized and discovered it as a new kind of disease for the first time on December 26th, 2019. Then it quickly spread in many countries around the world in early 2020. Wearing masks has proven to be one of the effective measure to stop the spread of this epidemic. Face masks, which are ordinary in normal life, suddenly became a precious item during the early stage of Emergency Global Pandemic. At the same time, we found that the stock price of masks-related markets in various countries have fluctuated. We will establish relevant models from the aspects of politics, the number of infected people, and the media in various countries to explore the real influencing factors behind them and the connection between various factors and the stock market.

Full text
Abstract:
INTRODUCTION: The study focuses on finding a methodology for evaluating the effectiveness of the nonpharmaceutical intervention in the face of a new pathogen entering the population. Different interventions can have different effectiveness levels in different populations; thus, studying possible correlations and effectiveness among different groups is essential. With better knowledge of the topic, the outbreak management could be done more cost-effectively, reducing the need for antibiotics, vaccines, and possible reduction of infectious diseases caused burden in developing regions. Furthermore, the study aims to determine the ways of using excess mortality as an evaluation technique for nonpharmaceutical interventions used in the Covid-19 pandemic.  METHOD: The variables in time-series format were used to calculate a cross-correlation score alongside other correlation coefficient tests. With the cross-correlation, the lag will be established to estimate how the variables correlate in the timeline. In addition, the study will attempt to establish the connections between different nonpharmaceutical interventions and their strengths and different age groups. RESULTS: The most frequent lag scores identified were 1 with 16 observations and 2 with 9 observations. The highest lag score was 4, which was observed once for the dataset of Hungary. The correlation between excess mortality and different harshness of NPI's was calculated. The correlation coefficient ranges from -0.3 to -0.39, indicating an overall low to medium correlation. The highest correlation was detected with stay-at-home requirements (-0.36), workplace closing (-0.37), and gathering restrictions (-0.39). In the final step, age-based correlations were established. The correlation ranged from 0.26 – 0.36, indicating an overall medium correlation. The lowest correlation can be seen in the youngest age group, 15-64 (correlation coefficient of 0.26), while the highest correlation of 0.36 can be seen in the 75-84 age group. Surprisingly the age group 85+ had a little lower correlation than the 75-84 age group. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: A stronger correlation between excess mortality and stringency index was detected in the countries with a higher death per capita. The two groups of intervention effectiveness were established: more effective (school closing, workplace closing, public event limitation, gathering restriction, and stay at home requirement) and less effective (public transport limitation, restriction on internal movement, international travel control, public information campaigns, protection of elderly campaigns). This suggests that NPI effectiveness depends on population size. In the age-group-based analysis, the correlation became stronger with the age increase, indicating nonpharmaceutical intervention effectiveness against high mortality in older adults.

Every nation in Asia has dealt with COVID-19 differently and with varying levels of success in the absence of clear and effective leadership from the WHO. As a result, the WHO’s role in Asia as a global health organization is coming under increasing pressure. As its credibility is slowly being eroded by public displays of incompetence and negligence, it has also become an arena of contestation. Moreover, while the pandemic continues to undermine the future of global health governance as a whole, the highly interdependent economies in Asia have exposed the speed with which pandemics can spread, as intensive regional travel and business connections have caused every area in the region to be hit hard. The migrant labor necessary to sustain globalized economies has been strained and the security of international workers is now more precarious than ever, as millions have been left stranded, seen their entry blocked, or have limited access to health services. This volume provides an accessible framework for the understanding the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in Asia, with a specific emphasis on global governance in health and labor.

Abstract:
This afterword considers the role of competition during Covid-19. It incorporates insights from the chapters in this edited volume to understand how the global phenomenon of a pandemic has come to be portrayed through national rankings of cases and deaths. Statistics have desensitized, making the pandemic more about a competition over cases than about mourning those who have passed away and finding public health solutions to prevent further cases. I argue that we can best understand how Covid-19 statistics have spurred national competition and, at times, obscured much more important effects by turning to history, epidemiology, sociology, and international relations.

Abstract:
Ethics represents an important role in any society, applicable to all activities. Online information, during its evolution, applied many changes in all the domains, changes that may affect the principles of ethics. The continued freedom to use the online environment, the failure to establish clear rules both nationally and internationally can lead to many problems, most of which are ethical. Although ethics is an important value of society, in reality, it serves as an established virtue. This paper reveals the fact that the limits of ethics can be easily violated, showing which possible dangers can be met and, with attention, avoided. Using the Internet has become a priority in any domain: economic, cultural, academic, educational, and social. The most obvious change could be observed at the social level. Thus, more and more people prefer to socialize online, through social networks. Within these networks, most cases of violation of ethical norms can be observed. That is why certain ethical standards should be set clear enough to protect the privacy of users. The restrictions imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic have led more and more people to use the online environment (online work, online education). With the increase in the rate of use of the online environment, online illegalities have also increased, legalities that violate the principles of ethics. We must not neglect that any action in the online environment exposes the user to certain risks. We consider online users must get informed about possible risks and problems that may arise from browsing online. Thus, good information of the population, as well as continuously updated legislation, can help to respect the norms of ethics in the online environment

Abstract:
The coronavirus pandemic is more global, dramatic, and unusual than any crisis we have seen in a long time. It has not only seriously threatened human life but also severely impacted the world economy and international relations. Following the pandemic, global affairs as well as state-to-state relationships are witnessing major, even qualitative, changes. The article analyzes the relations of two major powers, the United States of America and China, the two most important players on the world stage in the era of COVID19 and its implication of the world order. The global impact of the coronavirus pandemic poses two interconnected questions: Is this a historic moment when the world will change permanently? Will there be a lasting impact on geopolitics globally? A definite answer to these questions is not yet in sight. However, the emerging political debate on the impact of the pandemic could help bring about clearer predictions about how the world will evolve in the post-Covid-19 period. Key words: Covid-19, pandemic, USA, China, international relations, global order

Abstract:
The global COVID-19 pandemic presented a context of rapidly changing and complex development challenges. Recognising an immediate need for timely support in making sense of a proliferation of pandemic-related resources, the team at the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) (formerly the Department for International Development) commissioned the K4D Programme to provide regular summaries of the evidence being generated world-wide on the COVID-19 pandemic. As a rapid response research service, K4D was able to capture and collate relevant evolving evidence across a range of themes on a weekly, then daily, basis. Evidence indicates these summaries have served as a key input in delivering an evidence-based response to the global COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract:
"In late December 2019, a large number of patients with unknown causes of pneumonia were reported by press from a seafood market in Wuhan, Hubei province, China. This coronavirus was originally named the 2019 new coronavirus (2019-nCoV) by the World Health Organization (WHO) on January 12, 2020. The Coronavirus Working Group (CSG) of the WHO and International Committee proposed to call the new virus SARS-CoV-2 on February 11, 2020. As a result of the samples taken from the patient, the whole genome sequence of the SARS-CoV-2 was isolated on January 7, 2020, by Chinese scientists in a short time. WHO announced on February 11, 2020; that “COVID-19” will become the official name of the disease. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director of the WHO, said the epidemic meant “ko”, “corona”, “vi” for “virus” and “d” for “disease” as first described on December 31, 2019. Such a name has been preferred to avoid stigmatizing a particular region, animal species or human. The infection, which started to spread first in China and then in nearby countries, spread to most countries later on. The epidemic soon reached an international dimension, affecting the whole world. As a result, the WHO considered COVID-19 as an international public health problem and declared it as a pandemic on January 30, 2020. In humans, coronaviruses cause some cases of colds and respiratory infections that can be fatal, such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), and Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In recent years, new viral infections have been detected periodically in various countries. The first epidemic; was observed in 2002-2003 as a result of the crossing of a new coronavirus from bat origin to humans through palm civet cats in Guangdong Province, China. This virus, called SARS, affected a total of 8422 people in China and caused 916 deaths (11% mortality, however different rates are given in different literatures). The second epidemic event occurred approximately 10 years later. In 2012, the MERS coronavirus (MERS-CoV) emerged from bat origin through a dromedary camel in Saudi Arabia. It affected a total of 2494 people and caused 858 deaths (mortality rate of 34%). WHO has declared it as a pandemic after the outbreak and scientists are doing great efforts to identify the characterization of the new coronavirus and to develop antiviral therapies and vaccines. Clinical studies and vaccination studies are still ongoing fastly. Also, the pathogenesis of the virus is still not fully known, and new studies are needed in this regard. Currently, effective infection control intervention is the only way to prevent the spread of SARS-CoV-2. The most appropriate prophylactic regimen for patients under observation due to COVID-19 related disease is unknown. For this reason, treatment protocols should be planned by following the current guidelines. This study consists of evaluating the opinions about the history of pandemics associated with COVID-19, related definitions and the projects being carried out with the compilation of available resources, the development stages of the pandemic and the projection of postpandemic interaction so far."

Abstract:
The horticulture sector is fundamental to Kenya’s economy and its citizens’ livelihoods. However, global connectivity and high perishability make the sector vulnerable to shocks. The Covid-19 pandemic and related policy measures impacted the sector in multiple ways, with an estimated US$3m lost per day during lockdowns. In response, the state and business worked together to analyse issues and develop solutions, facilitated by digital technologies. This Policy Briefing identifies lessons from this experience, focused on the French bean and avocado subsectors. The aim is to build knowledge that can be applied to new opportunities and risks affecting the resilience of the horticulture sector.

Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic generated a large negative external shock to the global economy. Businesses worldwide were affected by economic, health, and mobility restrictions that impacted consumers ability to access goods and services and firms profitability and survival rates. In this paper, we study the economic performance of Latin American MSMEs during the pandemic using disaggregated and high-frequency administrative banking deposits and income data from Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Paraguay, and Peru. We observe a sharp short-term decline in firm earnings due to the implementation of lockdowns during the second half of March 2020. We show this decline had a heterogeneous impact by economic sector, firm size, and transaction type (in-person vs. online). Focusing on financial technology adoption by studying the migration from in-person to online banking transactions, we find that MSMEs managed to recover revenues to pre-pandemic levels in early 2021 thanks to an increased share of online transactions and that industries facing higher physical exposure to the public (e.g., retailers) experienced a more considerable decline and a slower recovery.

Abstract:
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:
Since first appearing at the end of 2019, the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has spread at a pace and scale not seen before. On 11 March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic. A rapid response was called for, and actors across the globe worked quickly to develop sets of preventative measures to contain the disease. One mode of transmission identified early on in the crisis was via surfaces and objects (fomites) (Howard et al. 2020). To combat this, hand hygiene was put forward as a key preventative measure and heralded as ‘the first line of defence against the disease’ (World Bank 2020). What followed was an unprecedented global focus on handwashing with soap. Health messages on how germs spread, the critical times at which hands should be washed, and methods for correct handwashing were shared (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2020). Political leaders around the world promoted handwashing and urged people to adopt the practice to protect against the coronavirus. The primary and secondary impacts of COVID-19 have affected people and industries in a variety of different ways. For the WASH sector, the centring of handwashing in the pandemic response has led to a sudden spike in hygiene activity. This SLH Rapid Topic Review takes stock of some of the cross-cutting challenges the sector has been facing during this period and explores the adaptations that have been made in response. It then looks forwards, thinking through what lies ahead for the sector, and considers the learning priorities for the next steps.

Covid-19 and the response and mitigation efforts taken to contain the virus have triggered a global crisis impacting on all aspects of life. The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic for forcibly displaced persons (refugees, internally displaced persons and asylum seekers) extends beyond its health impacts and includes serious socioeconomic and protection impacts. This rapid review focuses on the available evidence of the socioeconomic impacts of the crisis on forcibly displaced persons, with a focus where possible and relevant on examples from countries of interest to the Covid Collective programme: Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Ghana, Iraq, Kenya, Malawi, Pakistan, Rwanda, South Sudan, Syria, Uganda, Yemen, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
