The editors of JAMA recognize the challenges, concerns, and frustration about shortage personal protective equipment (PPE) that is affecting care patients safety health workers in US around world.We seek creative immediate solutions for how to maximize use PPE, conserve supply identify new sources PPE.We are in-terested suggestions, recommendations, potential actions from individuals who have relevant experience, especially physicians, other professionals, administrators hospitals clinical...
This case series describes the clinical resolution of systemic symptoms and lesions, along with any adverse events, in patients monkeypox infection who were treated tecovirimat on a compassionate use basis.
Infectious disease outbreaks play an important role in global morbidity and mortality. Real-time epidemic forecasting provides opportunity to predict geographic spread as well case counts better inform public health interventions when occur. Challenges recent advances predictive modeling are discussed here. We identified data needs the areas of surveillance, mobility, host environmental susceptibility, pathogen transmissibility, population density, healthcare capacity. Constraints...

Abstract Data from digital disease surveillance tools such as ProMED and HealthMap can complement the field during ongoing outbreaks. Our aim was to investigate use of data collected through in real-time outbreak analysis. We developed a flexible statistical model quantify spatial heterogeneity risk spread an forecast short term incidence trends. The applied retrospectively by 2013–2016 West African Ebola epidemic for comparison, WHO data. Using data, able robustly 1–4 weeks advance...
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, formulating targeted policy interventions that are informed by differential severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) transmission dynamics will be of vital importance to national and regional governments. We develop an individual-level model for SARS-CoV-2 accounts location-dependent distributions age, household structure, comorbidities. use these together with age-stratified contact matrices instantiate specific models Hubei, China;...
This JAMA Patient Page describes how the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19 is transmitted and provides measures people can take while grocery shopping, unpacking groceries, preparing food to minimize risk of being infected.

Although the use of social media to spread misinformation and disinformation is not a new concept, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has further highlighted dangers that can pose public health. More than two-thirds Americans receive their news from at least 1 outlet, most which do undergo same review process as academic journals some professional organizations. Unfortunately, this lead inaccurate health information being conveyed truth. The purpose article...

Hepatitis E virus is a common cause of acute viral hepatitis. We analyzed reports hepatitis outbreaks among forcibly displaced populations in sub-Saharan Africa during 2010-2020. Twelve independent occurred, and >30,000 cases were reported. Transmission was attributed to poor sanitation overcrowding.
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii are of increasing concern in the healthcare setting. We describe a cluster 9 cases hospitalized patients over 3- month period that reflected ongoing community transmission from high-risk facilities. Robust surveillance and knowledge local epidemiology critical to mitigating onward
The Guide to Infection Control in the Hospital (Guide) is an open access resource produced by International Society for Infectious Diseases (ISID) assist prevention of infection acquisition and transmission worldwide. A survey was distributed 8055 current users understand their needs.The consisted 48-questions regarding control (IPC) availability needs. Dichotomous questions, Likert scale-type open-and closed-ended questions were used.Respondents (n=1121) from 194 countries six WHO regions...
This JAMA Patient Page explains what high blood pressure is, why it is important to control, the difference between top (systolic) and bottom (diastolic) numbers, how best treated prevented.
Abstract Background The United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) estimates the number of forcibly displaced people increased from 22.7 million in 1996 to 67.7 2016. Human mobility is associated with introduction infectious disease pathogens. aim this study was describe range pathogens populations over time using an informal event monitoring system. Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis ProMED, digital system, identify reports outbreak events involving between and Number per year...
