Connected Convenience: How People Are Finding and Fostering Togetherness Online
From the Document: "COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] has rapidly transformed how people connect with their friends and family, colleagues and communities. In spite of physical distancing measures, people have found a sense of togetherness through digital tools and online touchpoints. These new connections are changing the nature of relationships and long-held payment habits, and in order to stay relevant, businesses are having to adapt. Connected Convenience examines how the innate human need for connection is increasingly being expressed online with a focus on two key areas: the ways people socialize and how consumers interact with businesses. We'll take a closer look at what this shift to connected convenience means for consumer behavior and how brands can leverage new modes of communication to strengthen their relationship with consumers."

Polling Locations and Voters
From the Document: "The more an individual interacts with others, and the longer that interaction, the higher the risk of COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] spread. Elections with only in-person voting on a single day are higher risk for COVID-19 spread because there will be larger crowds and longer wait times. Lower risk election polling settings include those with: [1] a wide variety of voting options; [2] longer voting periods (more days and/or more hours); [3] any other feasible options for reducing the number of voters who congregate indoors in polling locations at the same time. The virus that causes COVID-19, is mostly spread by respiratory droplets released when people talk, cough, or sneeze. It may be possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes. Personal prevention practices (such as handwashing, staying home when sick) and environmental cleaning and disinfection are important actions election ocials, poll workers, and voters can take to help lower the risk of COVID-19 spread."

COVID-19 Case Investigation and Contact Tracing Among Refugee, Immigrant, and Migrant (RIM) Populations: Important Considerations for Health Departments
From the Document: "While COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] is a public health threat to the entire U.S. population, there is growing evidence that the outbreak disproportionately affects certain groups, including RIM [Refugee, Immigrant, and Migrant] populations. Long-standing systemic health, economic and social inequities have put many people from racial and ethnic minority groups at an increased risk of becoming seriously ill and dying from COVID-19. Due to social and economic conditions, RIM populations may face many of these same challenges that lead to poorer health outcomes. These communities also face unique risks for COVID-19 infection. Many RIM populations face economic, cultural, geographic, and legal barriers to health care, including lack of health insurance compared to the U.S.-born population. Critical infrastructure industries, including the food, agriculture, and hospitality sectors, often rely on large numbers of RIM employees as essential workers and may include work environments that present challenges to social distancing."

'130,000 - 210,000 Avoidable COVID-19 Deaths - and Counting - in the U.S.'
From the Overview: "This report looks at the staggering and disproportionate nature of COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] fatalities in the United States, which now ranks first in the world in the total number of fatalities, to estimate how many deaths were 'avoidable.' With more than 217,000, lives lost, and a proportional mortality rate twice that of neighboring Canada and more than fifty times that of Japan -- a country with a much older population than the U.S. - the United States has turned a global crisis into a devastating tragedy. Through comparative analysis and applying proportional mortality rates, we estimate that at least 130,000 deaths and perhaps as many as 210,000 could have been avoided with earlier policy interventions and more robust federal coordination and leadership."

COVID-19: The CIDRAP Viewpoint Part 6: Ensuring a Resilient US Prescription Drug Supply
From the Document: "An ongoing crisis plagues US healthcare, limits reliable access to critical drugs, and results in serious consequences for patients who need these drugs. Over the past few years, the United States has had more than 250 drug shortages at any point,1 many for critical medications, including both acute drugs for treating emergency situations and chronic drugs for managing serious long-term conditions. And shortages remain a perennial problem. Even though drug shortages have been recognized and tracked in the United States since 2001, the situation has not significantly improved in more than two decades.[...] Emergence of the COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] pandemic in early 2020 has severely stressed the US drug supply chain. COVID-19 has jolted the global pharmaceutical market at all levels and production points. The supply side has been disrupted by production factory closures, shipping delays or shutdowns, and trade limitations or export bans. The demand side has seen dramatically increased need for COVID-19 therapies worldwide."

State of the Nation: A 50-State COVID-19 Survey Report #18: COVID-19 Fake News on Twitter
From the Executive Summary: "The COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] pandemic created an unprecedented disruption of everyday life in America that has been exacerbated by the infodemic of COVID-19 misinformation spread on social media. In this report, we examine the tweets of 1.6 million registered American voters to ask: 'who is sharing COVID-19 fake news and what are they sharing?' We find that older people and Republicans are more likely to share URLs from fake news web domains. In addition, we show that the most shared fake news web domain is The Gateway Pundit, which received far more shares than even the second most popular fake news domain."

Contact Tracing for COVID-19
From the Document: "[1] State and local public health officials will decide how to implement these activities and how to advise specific people, or groups of people, to be tested. [2] Contact tracing will be conducted for close contacts (any individual within 6 feet of an infected person for a total of 15 minutes or more) of laboratory-confirmed or probable COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] patients. [3] Remote communications for the purposes of case investigation and contact tracing should be prioritized; in-person communication may be considered only after remote options have been exhausted. [4] Testing is recommended for all close contacts of confirmed or probable COVID-19 patients. [5] Those contacts who test positive (symptomatic or asymptomatic) should be managed as a confirmed COVID-19 case. [6] Asymptomatic contacts testing negative should self-quarantine for 14 days from their last exposure (i.e., close encounter with confirmed or probable COVID-19 case). [7] If testing is not available, symptomatic close contacts should self-isolate and be managed as a probable COVID-19 case. [8] Asymptomatic close contacts who are not tested should self-quarantine and be monitored for 14 days after their last exposure, with linkage to clinical care for those who develop symptoms."

Prioritizing Non-Healthcare Worksite Assessments for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)
From the Document: "This page is intended to assist state, tribal, local, and territorial health departments in making decisions about how to allocate limited resources to respond to worksites that report COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019]-related concerns, complaints, or clusters. In general, COVID-19 clusters in shared housing, detention and correctional facilities, schools, daycares, and youth programs should be considered high priority. Other worksites may be prioritized based on the potential for extensive transmission of the virus that causes COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2 [severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2], or transmission to people at higher risk for severe illness. These worksites could include high-density critical infrastructure facilities, such as manufacturing facilities, meat and poultry processing facilities, worksites with essential workers, warehouse and distribution centers, construction sites, or service-providing establishments such as salons or restaurants. Federal partners should be consulted regarding assessments of federal worksites."
