Abstract:

The Covid-19 pandemic first entered the international news cycle with mixed levels of concern. How did people across the globe react to first encounters with this virus? For many it was like seeing for the first time the spewing ash of a volcano, or the receding tides of a tsunami. Many reacted with disbelief, not knowing the proper course of action for themselves or for their community. This study explores the topics of discussion and reactions to the pandemic through the lens of quote-tweets--from the initial confusion and disbelief to the eventual politicization, economic closures, and reo

Summary Introduction: This thesis reports the surveillance response of the EUROCAT network of population based registries for surveillance of congenital anomalies to the 2009 H1Nl influenza pandemic. Due to the controversy around vaccinating 1st trimester pregnant women, the relationship between pandemic influenza outbreaks and congenital anomalies (CA) deserves attention. The purpose of this thesis is to improve public health practice by investigating the effect of the 2009 HiNl influenza pandemic on CA prevalence in Europe and exploring the pandemic vaccination policy and policy making with

Abstract:

Annual influenza A infections affect 5-15% of the population, causing an estimate half million deaths per year worldwide, with the majority of the severe diseases in infants, elderly and immunocompromised individuals. Influenza viruses infect the epithelium of the upper and lower respiratory tracts, typically resulting in an abrupt onset of illness, that usually includes fever, myalgias, upper respiratory tract congestion and pharyngytis. These symptoms persist for approximately one week; pneumonia is a frequent manifestation of more severe infection, while myocarditis, encephalitis and other

Abstract:

Introduction: Influenza illness is considered to be associated with high mortality, morbidity and economic loss. Numerous studies and mathematical simulations are conducted to understand the disease pattern, transmission dynamics, and psychosocial response of the population; however, little is known about the health seeking behavior of patients after the onset of respiratory infection symptoms. Respiratory infections exert substantial burden on the health care system of Hong Kong, therefore in addition to detecting the disease early, it is necessary to understand health care utilization behav

The COVID-19 coronavirus disease has unexpectedly changed the way we travel in our cities. With urban transportation remaining an essential service, governments, agencies and organizations are being challenged to develop and implement changes that accommodate for the changing levels of travel demand, the shifts in mode of travel, and the promotion of physical/social distancing to limit the spread of the virus. Travel behaviours of the public have also changed during this time, favouring more physically distant options such as cycling, ridesharing and other new mobility solutions, and the autom

Abstract:

The H1N1/09 (sub-type A) virus was declared to be a pandemic influenza on June 11th, 2009. In response, Canadian public health agencies planned mass vaccination clinics to protect the public. However, little information existed to aid in the planning of mass vaccination clinics, as they had not been used in previous pandemic flu outbreaks. This was further complicated by fear of a limited vaccine supply and nurse shortages. Public health nurses (PHNs), as the largest group of public health professionals were pivotal in implementing the mass vaccination clinics. Yet, the available evidence indi

Abstract:

The presence of naturally occurring and man-made public health threats necessitate the design and implementation of mitigation strategies, such that adequate response is provided in a timely manner. Since multiple variables, such as geographic properties, resource constraints, and government mandated time-frames must be accounted for, computational methods provide the necessary tools to develop contingency response plans while respecting underlying data and assumptions. A typical response scenario involves the placement of points of dispensing (PODs) in the affected geographic region to sup

Full text

Abstract:

Optimization of relief networks in humanitarian logistics often exemplifies the need for solutions that are feasible given a hard constraint on time. For instance, the distribution of medical countermeasures immediately following a biological disaster event must be completed within a short time-frame. When these supplies are not distributed within the maximum time allowed, the severity of the disaster is quickly exacerbated. Therefore emergency response plans that fail to facilitate the transportation of these supplies in the time allowed are simply not acceptable. As a result, all optimizati

Abstract:

This paper examines the preaching at Washington National Cathedral as a response to the dual pandemic of COVID-19 and systemic racism in the United States. Drawing on research from over forty sermons from high church traditions and comparing it with analysis of sermons on Palm Sunday and Easter this paper will show how preachers in high church traditions, accustomed to preaching in the presence of eucharist, adapted their proclamation to respond to a virtual congregation and the absence of in-person communion. Then, the paper examines how Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde and Presiding Bishop Michael

Abstract:

With the outbreak of the 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) comes the need to evaluate the preparedness level of government entities that had preparedness plans. This study looks at the preparedness level for pandemic influenza among key leaders in Brazos County according to their Brazos County Pandemic Influenza Preparedness Plan. Ten key leaders were recruited to participate in interviews. Interviews were transcribed and analyzed for salient themes. Main themes that emerged from interviews were categorized into vaccinations, communication, logistical issues, and the need for evaluations and fe

During the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic, public health nurses (PHNs) were called upon to protect their communities against a deadly influenza virus. Currently, there appears to be no literature that describes the experience of Canadian PHNs responding to the first influenza pandemic of the 21st century. A qualitative research study was conducted and the data were analyzed by using content analysis. Thirteen nurses were interviewed from an Urban, Rural and Northern health region in Manitoba. Focus groups were conducted for the Urban and Rural nurses while Northern nurses were interviewed by tel

Abstract:

Influenza is a disease of global significance, including in tropical regions where it spreads throughout the year. Understanding the spread and impact of influenza in the tropics is therefore important for preparedness planning. While there are numerous pharmaceutical and public health measures that attempt to reduce the spread and impact of influenza, few conclusive epidemiological studies are available to document their effectiveness. Scientific evidence is especially lacking for pandemic preparedness and response measures due to the rarity of pandemics. Singapore, a globally-connected, trop

The HIV/AIDS pandemic is a crisis for the South African government, society and Church. About sixty percent of the HIV population are in Sub Saharan Africa with women being three times more likely to be infected with HIV than their male counterparts. Governmental, societal and Church responses seem to have had little effect in reducing the pandemic as can be seen from the rising prevalence rates. Responses to the HIV/AIDS pandemic lack a gender focus. Some churches have not responded to the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Other Church-based responses have been isolated and simplistic in that they have conc

Abstract:

As the COVID-19 pandemic spread around the world in early 2020, dozens of world leaders addressed their nations with a specific rhetorical goal: to convince their citizens to comply with pandemic management policies that would drastically impact normal life. This moment of global pivot presented a rare opportunity to compare the responses of world leaders and study the forms of rhetoric present when faced with an immediate crisis. What themes were used to persuade nations to accept change? Some pointed to science, but in what role was science positi
