This exploratory study builds upon the expertise of a panel faculty, administrators, students, and instructional designers (IDs) who lived through pandemic dealt with associated challenges firsthand. These participants provided insight on how to establish systems that would create successful online teaching learning opportunities in post-vaccine post-pandemic world. Four major themes emerged: (a) integrating technology facilitate enhance education; (b) structural support resources needed...
<h3>Importance</h3> Several jurisdictions in the United States have secured hotels to temporarily house people experiencing homelessness who require isolation or quarantine for confirmed suspected coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). To our knowledge, little is known about how these programs serve this vulnerable population outside hospital setting. <h3>Objective</h3> assess safety of a hotel-based and (I/Q) care system its association with inpatient capacity. <h3>Design, Setting,...
Abstract Background Along the southern shoreline of Lake Malawi, incidence schistosomiasis is increasing with snails genera Bulinus and Biomphalaria transmitting urogenital intestinal schistosomiasis, respectively. Since underlying distribution partially known, often being focal, developing pragmatic spatial models that interpolate snail information across under-sampled regions required to understand assess current future risk schistosomiasis. Methods A secondary geospatial analysis recently...
Abstract Background Intestinal schistosomiasis was confirmed endemic in Mangochi District, Malawi, May of 2018 following an unexpected encounter with discreet populations Biomphalaria spp. freshwater snails during routine malacological surveillance activities. Since then, only limited has been carried out, and so the distribution this area is currently unclear. Additionally, sites active Schistosoma mansoni transmission are also unknown. In present study, through extensive surveillance, we...

Improving the role understanding between essential emergency healthcare providers may improve teamwork and efficacy. This study asked licensed athletic trainers (ATs) medical technicians (EMTs) or paramedics for their opinions of others' tasks in an emergent football injury situation. The hypothesis was that groups would have differing opinions.
Schistosomiasis is an aquatic snail borne parasitic disease, with intestinal schistosomiasis (IS) and urogenital (UGS) caused by Schistosoma mansoni S. haematobium infections, respectively. School-aged-children (SAC) are a known vulnerable group can also suffer from co-infections. Along the shoreline of Lake Malawi newly emerging outbreak IS occurring increasing UGS co-infection rates. Age-prevalence (co)infection profiles not fully understood. To shed light on these trends species age...
