There is a growing body of research highlighting that Black women have more adverse maternal health events. Instead only focusing on severe morbidity and mortality events, patient safety events (PSEs) feedback reports are data sources can offer insights into broader spectrum safety, including near misses, unsafe conditions. In this work, we explore the racial differences in representation mothers birthing individuals' (MBIs) voices PSE reports.

A surge in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) human adenovirus A31 (HAdV-A31) infections was initially observed late 2014/2015 at SickKids (SK) Hospital, Toronto, Canada. In response, enhanced laboratory monitoring for all conducted. Positive samples underwent genotyping, viral culture, and, selected cases, whole-genome sequencing (WGS). HAdV-A31 specimens/DNA obtained from four international pediatric HSCT centers also WGS. During the SK outbreak period (27 October 2014 to 31...
