Infections caused by the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) are a serious health issue due to their prevalence and associated mortality. However, transmission routes of virus remain unclear, thus, current recommended control strategies not evidence based. In this study, we investigated MERS-CoV during first nosocomial outbreak in Republic Korea May 2015 using multi-agent modeling framework. We identified seven hypothesized modes based on three main (long-range airborne,...

We developed a pay-it-forward program where receive free gonorrhea/chlamydia test can then donate toward future participants' tests. This study aims to investigate drivers of uptake donation using mixed methods approach.
The novel corona respiratory viruses usually leave the host via droplets and float in air or settle down. Medically, decay characteristics of aerosolized have been simulated measured by atomizing suspensions into air, but there has no systematic study on effect ambient temperature humidity. In this study, we collected experimental data from existing medical studies, then introduced calculated initial constant (k 1 ) secondary 2 based these as a unified standard to quantify process viruses....
