CONCLUSIONS: Streamlining clinical work allows more time for patient care. Enhancing community and fostering collaboration in decision-making allows clinicians to feel more empowered. A crucial first step to combat burnout is to encourage a work
CONCLUSIONS: Pernio and purpuric lesions have been well-associated with COVID-19, but papulosquamous, vesicular, mild maculopapular, and urticarial lesions can easily be dismissed as unrelated to COVID-19. Pernio lesions are thought to be related to
CONCLUSIONS: In older inpatients, SARS-CoV-2 vaccination seems to be associated with a lower likelihood of intra-hospital infectious diseases not caused by SARS-CoV-2 and all-cause in-hospital mortality. The vaccination coverage in the older
With the continued emergence of variants of concern, the global threat of COVID-19 persists, particularly in low- and middle-income countries with limited vaccine access. Protein-based vaccines, such as SCB-2019, can be produced on a large scale at a
BACKGROUND: Early diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection is still critical to control COVID-19 outbreak. Traditional polymerase chain reaction, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay or lateral flow immunoassay performed poorly on detection times, sample
Due to their extensive use during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, many disposable face masks are irresponsibly deposited into the water environment, threatening the health of people living nearby. However, the effects of water conditions on the
We evaluated the population-level benefits of expanding treatment with the antiviral drug Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir/ritonavir) in the United States for SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant infections. Using a multiscale mathematical model, we found that treating
