Cuidar a Tu Familia Durante Los Brotes De Coronavirus y Otras Enfermedades Infecciosas
"Los brotes de enfermedades infecciosas, incluyendo la del Coronavirus (COVID-19) identificado por primera vez en China en diciembre de 2019, son un llamado a los individuos y las familias a que se hagan responsables de su salud. Aunque los líderes de la ciencia, de la medicina y de los gobiernos vigilan de cerca y buscan soluciones para los brotes de enfermedad, la mejor manera de proteger a la familia es a través de mantenerse informados, practicar buena higiene básica y medidas preventivas, participar en estrategias de manejo del estrés y aprender cómo involucrar a los niños en el cuidado de la salud de la familia."

Prendersi Cura Del Benessere Mentale Dei Pazienti Durante L'epidemia Di Coronavirus E Di Altre Malattie Infettive Emergenti: Una Guida Per Gli Operatori
"Man mano che il nostro mondo diventa sempre più interconnesso, il potenziale di diffusione rapida e di vasta portata di nuove malattie infettive rappresenta una minaccia crescente. Soprattutto nelle prime fasi di un'epidemia di malattia infettiva emergente come il Coronavirus (COVID-19), c'è spesso molta incertezza sulla natura della malattia, sulla sua diffusione, sulla sua portata e sul suo impatto. Questo può portare a un significativo e comprensibile disagio emotivo, anche tra coloro che non sono stati, e che non sanno se lo saranno, direttamente esposti alla malattia."

Cuidando El Bienestar Mental De Los Pacientes Durante La Emergencia De Coronavirus y Otras Enfermedades Infecciosas: Guía Para Médicos
"Nuestro mundo, cada vez más interconectado, sufre la amenaza creciente de la propagación rápida y el gran alcance de nuevas enfermedades infecciosas. En las etapas iniciales de un brote emergente de enfermedad infecciosa, como el Coronavirus (COVID-19), frecuentemente existe una gran incertidumbre acerca de la naturaleza de la enfermedad, de su propagación, alcance e impacto. Esto puede ocasionar un gran malestar emocional, inclusive entre los que no han estado y no saben si han estado directamente expuestos a la enfermedad. Durante la emergencia de un brote de enfermedad infecciosa, los médicos y los especialistas en salud mental atienden pacientes que están experimentando diferentes niveles de malestar emocional acerca del brote y de su impacto sobre ellos, sus familias y sus comunidades. Los médicos deben reconocer la incertidumbre que genera la emergencia de estas enfermedades y ayudar a los pacientes a entender que las preocupaciones por la salud a menudo tienen un componente emocional."

Ayudando a Los Niños Durante El Aislamiento En Casa Por La Emergencia De Coronavirus
"Las medidas de emergencia, como el aislamiento de los niños en casa, son medidas extremas para limitar la propagación de la infección del brote de coronavirus (COVID-19). A pesar del beneficio que tiene para la salud pública, para el niño estar resguardado en casa, aunque le brinda la oportunidad de pasar tiempo con la familia, también puede resultar en actividad física insuficiente, patrones irregulares de sueño, aumento de peso y disminución del bienestar físico. Como muchos padres saben, el aburrimiento y la frustración son frecuentes durante este tiempo de quedarse en casa."

Collecting Open Government Approaches to COVID-19
From the Webpage: "As many of our countries are facing unprecedented challenges from COVID-19 [coronavirus disease] the strain on our governments is extreme, and the impact on people all over the world continues to grow. [...] It is in moments of disaster response and relief that the values of open government can come under intense pressure, but can also meaningfully contribute to better outcomes. We believe the best role for OGP [Open Government Partnership] right now is to help create an open space for the community to share where they see open government approaches to tackling COVID-19 being implemented, either by governments themselves or civil society, citizens or the private sector."

Interim Guidance for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Systems for COVID-19 in the United States
From the Background: "Emergency medical services (EMS) play a vital role in responding to requests for assistance, triaging patients, and providing emergency medical treatment and transport for ill persons. However, unlike patient care in the controlled environment of a healthcare facility, care and transports by EMS present unique challenges because of the nature of the setting, enclosed space during transport, frequent need for rapid medical decision-making, interventions with limited information, and a varying range of patient acuity and jurisdictional healthcare resources."

COVID-19: What You Need to Know
From the Document: "COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] is a respiratory illness that can spread from person to person. There are many types of coronaviruses, but COVID-19 is caused by a new coronavirus never previously seen in humans. [...] COVID-19 can spread to people who are in close contact (within about 6 feet) with an infected person when that person coughs or sneezes. COVID-19 can also live on surfaces, but it is not known for how long. [...] People at high risk for severe illness are those over 65 years old or those with other health conditions, such as lung disease, heart disease, diabetes, or cancer. People in close contact with the infected--such as in-home caretakers and intimate partners-- are also at high risk."

N95 Filtering Facepiece Respirator Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation (UVGI) Process for Decontamination and Reuse
From the Introduction: "The ongoing pandemic of SARS-CoV-2 resulting in COVID-19 has severely stressed the worldwide healthcare system and has created dangerous shortages of personal protective equipment (PPE) including N95 filtering facepiece respirators (N95 FFRs). In an effort to extend the stockpile of N95 FFRs at our institution, we developed a decontamination procedure involving the delivery of ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) to used N95 FFRs. The evidence base supporting this program includes: 1) UVGI has been shown to effectively inactivate a wide range of human pathogens including coronaviruses and other human respiratory viruses; 2) UVGI has been demonstrated to inactivate human respiratory viruses, including coronaviruses, on various models of N95 FFRs; 3) levels of UVGI needed to inactive human respiratory viruses are well below the level of irradiation that adversely affects the fit and filtration characteristics of N95 FFRs; and 4) UVGI can be safely administered when appropriate safeguards are in place. Herein, we briefly describe our procedure to decontaminate and reuse N95 FFRs."

Impact of COVID-19 on Community-Based Responses to Violence
From the Introduction: "COVID-19 [coronavirus disease] continues to put considerable strain on the American healthcare system. At the time of this writing, there were 92,770 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in New York State. In Monroe County, there were 390 confirmed cases of COVID-19. Importantly, both figures underestimate the actual occurrence of COVID-19 in both New York and Monroe County, respectively. Due to the limited availability of testing, the actual number of infected persons is likely much higher. One study found that 86% of COVID-19 cases in China during the early stages of the pandemic went undetected. The rise in COVID-19 infections has the potential to overwhelm hospital systems around the country. According to the Institute for Health Metrics Evaluation, New York State is projected to have a shortage of 63,019 hospital beds on April 9, 2020. This shortage will prove potentially deadly for patients seeking acute care for COVID-19 infections, but will also make it difficult for hospitals to provide effective treatment to patients seeking assistance for non COVID-19 related ailments. One sub-population of patients seeking hospital assistance that warrants special attention is violence victims. This working paper will explore the impact of COVID-19 on the ability of hospitals and community organizations to adequately respond to violence victimization."
