Pneumococcal disease is more frequent and deadly in persons with certain comorbidities. We used 1999 2000 data from the Active Bacterial Core surveillance (ABCs) National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) to determine rates of invasive pneumococcal healthy adults (> or =18 years old) various high-risk conditions. The risks specific chronic illnesses was compared that adults, controlling for age, race, other illnesses. Overall incidence rates, cases/100,000 persons, were 8.8 51.4 diabetes, 62.9...

Abstract Introduction Flaviviruses such as dengue virus (DENV), Zika (ZIKV), Japanese encephalitis (JEV), and Yellow fever (YFV) are mosquito-borne RNA viruses causing major public health threats in parts of the world. While DENV ZIKV have been detected urine samples, data on presence stability flaviviruses water environment limited. Methods In this study, we determined infectivity flavivirus different environments by utilizing RT-qPCR plaque assay to explore feasibility environmental...

Abstract Background As SARS-CoV-2 evolves, assessing changes in COVID-19 severity over time, and the impact of prior infection on repeat infection, is important. We determined whether developing early pandemic was associated with reduced subsequent Omicron sub-lineages. Methods evaluated among patients infected during wave. Severity measured 3 ways:(1) an ordinal measure combining activities daily living (ADL) presence fever,(2) healthcare required (yes/no),(3) illness duration. compared...
