CONCLUSION: When designing temporary systems that may be repurposed in the future, we suggest using an SE approach with diagrams and UAF perspectives. This approach will enable stakeholders to understand what is being proposed to be built, and
Numerous studies have demonstrated that short-term exposure to particulate matter less than 10 μm (PM(10)) is positively associated with the COVID-19 incidence. However, no study has investigated the spatiotemporal pattern in this association, which
While medical countermeasures in COVID-19 have largely focused on vaccinations, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were early outpatient treatment options for COVID-positive patients. In Minnesota, a centralized access platform was developed to offer
CONCLUSIONS: Combining laboratory surveillance and active screening led to high uptake of Mab therapy and minimized delay from symptom onset to Mab infusion, thereby optimizing outpatient treatment of COVID-19. This approach also successfully
Research on pandemics in institutional settings often assumes that all human interactions within a jail pose similar viral transmission risks. We developed an agent-based model (ABM) called Simulation Applications for Forecasting Effective Responses
Rapid identification and management of close contacts is an important component of an effective university mitigation strategy for highly contagious infectious diseases such as measles and coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19). Institutions of higher
