On 13 March 2020, Israel's government declared closure of all schools. Schools fully reopened on 17 May 2020. Ten days later, a major outbreak coronavirus disease (COVID-19) occurred in high school. The first case was registered 26 May, the second 27 May. They were not epidemiologically linked. Testing complete school community revealed 153 students (attack rate: 13.2%) and 25 staff members 16.6%) who COVID-19 positive.
BackgroundApproximately 5.1 million Israelis had been fully immunized against coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) after receiving two doses of the BNT162b2 messenger RNA vaccine (Pfizer–BioNTech) by May 31, 2021. After early reports myocarditis during adverse events monitoring, Israeli Ministry Health initiated active surveillance.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed data obtained from December 20, 2020, to 2021, regarding all cases and categorized information using Brighton Collaboration...

Mass-casualty triage is implemented when available resources are insufficient to meet the needs of all patients in a disaster situation. The basic principle do maximum good for most casualties with least amount resources. There limited data support applicability this massive disasters such as January 2010 earthquake Haiti, which number seeking medical attention overwhelmed local resources.To analyze application system developed use mass-casualty setting was designed admit only those who had...
After the January 12, 2010, earthquake in Haiti, Project Medishare and University of Miami organized, built, staffed a 200-bed field hospital (the Hospital Haiti [UMHH]) on outskirts Port-au-Prince. We describe operational challenges providing safe environment at UMHH. Furthermore, we compared how these issues were addressed this ad hoc with they Israel Defense Force, fully deployable an organization fine-tuned as result prior disaster situations, also Haiti.
Few spatial scales are as important to individual outcomes the neighborhood. However, it is nearly impossible define neighborhoods in a generalizable way. This article proposes that by shifting focus measuring neighborhood boundaries rather than neighborhoods, scholars can avoid problem of indefinable and better approach questions what predicts racial segregation across areas. By quantifying an <i>externality space</i> theory boundaries, this introduces novel form analysis test where...
Maternal CMV infection during pregnancy, either primary or non-primary, may be associated with fetal and long-term sequelae. While guidelines recommend against it, screening for in pregnant women is a prevalent clinical practice Israel. Our aim to provide updated, local, clinically relevant, epidemiological information about seroprevalence among at childbearing age, the incidence of maternal pregnancy prevalence congenital (cCMV), as well yield serology testing.
Accumulation of inositol-1-phosphate after labeling with [3H]inositol and stimulation noradrenaline, carbachol, serotonin was measured in rat cortical, caudate nucleus, hippocampal slices. The response to noradrenaline significantly increased cortical slices from animals that had received either a single electroconvulsive shock (ECS) or series 10 daily ECS but unchanged nucleus muscarinic cholinergic agonist, reduced chronic ECS. not affected by the treatment. results are correlated changes...
Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the leading infectious cause of sensorineural hearing loss and delayed psychomotor development. Viral transmission to fetus far more likely occur following a primary than secondary maternal infection. Primary prevention seems be best means reduce burden congenital CMV due lack treatment options during pregnancy. We evaluated this approach on cohort 500 women planning pregnancy who attended our fertility clinic. Of 444 underwent screening, 18 (4.1%) had...
We report preliminary findings of a large outbreak human leptospirosis with 36 confirmed/probable and 583 suspected cases from June-August 2018, linked to contaminated water bodies in Northern Israel. There was travel-associated case Germany; additional are being investigated other countries. The presumed chain transmission, implicating wild boar cattle, raises multiple challenges for risk assessment, management communication currently addressed by public health response team.
Clonidine, a potent and highly selective α 2 ‐adrenergic agonist of the central nervous system, was modified. Insertion strong alkylating isothiocyanate group (NCS) group, at its aromatic residue, makes clonidine potential affinity label receptors. In displacement [ 3 H]clonidine p ‐[ H]aminoclonidine from rat brain membrane preparations, clonidine‐NCS demonstrates high for receptors ( K d = 50 mM). The covalent labelling ‐receptors requires higher concentrations irreversible ligand (1–70...
