  • Compendium of the Findings of the OPCAST Pandemic Subgroup 12
    1 A Compendium of the Findings of the Obama PCAST Ad Hoc Subgroup on Pandemic Preparedness and Response December 23, 2020 Introduction A subset of the former members of President Obama’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (here OPCAST)—ten individuals who played particularly important roles in producing the six OPCAST reports between 2009 and 2016 that dealt with issues related to pandemic preparedness and response1—came together starting in March of this year to consider how insights from those studies might be combined with more recent research and current observations to develop suggestions about how the U.S. response to the COVID-19 pandemic could be improved. The Subgroup has produced six reports, addressing • the national strategic pandemic-response stockpile (May 20) • the role of contact tracing (June 18) • the role of public health data in controlling the spread of COVID-19 (July 28) • testing for the pathogen (August 18) • recommendations for the coming COVID-19 commission (September 21) • needs for improved epidemiological modeling (September 28) Each report was distributed, upon completion, to selected members of the Trump COVID-19 team and the Biden campaign staff, selected governors and members of Congress, selected public health experts outside government, and the media. The reports have also been posted on the OPCAST team’s website, http://opcast.org, together with a few opinion pieces based on them. In the current volume, we have assembled all six reports in full, preceded by a set of brief summaries. Four of the reports are followed by short updates taking account of developments since the reports first came out.

  • MERS-Cov Data Sharing Case Study Report November 2018
    MERS-CoV Data Sharing Case Study Report November 2018 1. Introduction a. Background to the ongoing MERS-CoV outbreak: In September 2012, Dr Ali Mohamed Zaki reported the isolation of a novel betacoronavirus on ProMED-mail, the internet infectious disease alert system run by the International Society for Infectious Diseases.1 The patient, a 60-year-old male from Saudi Arabia presenting with pneumonia- like symptoms died from an unknown viral infection in June 2012.2 Later dubbed the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV),3 this emerging infectious disease has now been responsible for more than 2,200 laboratory-confirmed infections in people from 27 countries, and close to 800 deaths.4 The vast majority of these cases have been recorded in Saudi Arabia, however MERS-CoV is considered a severe emerging disease with the potential to cause a major global health emergency.5 Epidemiological investigations have revealed that primary human infections with MERS-CoV are often, but not always associated with contact with dromedary camels around the Arabian Peninsula.6 Human-to-human transmission of MERS-CoV has been responsible for case clusters in family groups and healthcare facilities. The incidence of hospital-acquired infections have been reduced with the employment of strict infection control measures,7 and the international public health community remain on high alert for new introductions. In 2015, South Korea saw the largest outbreak of MERS- CoV outside of the Eastern Mediterranean with 186 confirmed cases and 38 deaths.7 New cases of MERS-CoV infection continue to be reported mostly from the Eastern Mediterranean.

  • Alex Haslam Is a Social Psychologist and an Australian Laureate Fellow at the University of Queensland, Australia
    Alex Haslam is a social psychologist and an Australian Laureate Fellow at the University of Queensland, Australia. He is also a Senior Fellow of CIFAR’s Social Interactions, Identity & Well-Being program. His work examines how social identities and group memberships influence our interactions with others. He researches such questions as: How does belonging to groups and organizations shape the way we think, feel and behave? And how do individuals and groups in turn shape the nature of organizations and society? Dr. Haslam approaches these questions by identifying and explaining how people’s membership in groups and teams affects a range of social and organizational processes including stereotyping and prejudice, leadership and motivation, communication and decision-making, and stress and mental health. Dr Haslam is on the editorial board of seven international journals, including Scientific American Mind. He has published and edited 11 books on social and organizational psychology including the seminal book The Social Cure: Identity, Health and Well-being. His work has received numerous honours including the British Psychology Society's Award for Excellence in the Teaching of Psychology, and a National Teaching Fellowship from the Higher Education Academy. John Berry is a cross-cultural psychologist, and a member of CIFAR Advisory Board for the Social Interactions, Identity, & Well-being program. His research involves two domains. First is the examination of how individual behaviour is developed and displayed in different cultural contexts; much of the work has been with Indigenous Peoples in Canada, Africa and Asia. Second is research with immigrant and ethnocultural groups who are settled into plural societies in many parts of the world.

  • Recommendations for the Coming COVID-19 Commission
    Recommendations for the Coming COVID-19 Commission By a Pandemic-Response Subgroup of Former Members of President Obama’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology September 21, 2020 Introduction The United States confronted a succession of biological threats over the first two decades of the twenty-first century. These included the 2001 anthrax attacks, the 2002-2004 SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV-1) pandemic, the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic, the 2012 MERS-CoV coronavirus epidemic in the Mideast, the 2014 Ebola outbreak in Africa, and the 2015-2016 mosquito-borne Zika virus epidemic in the Americas. This pace of emerging disease outbreaks had been anticipated by leading microbiologists and epidemiologists in the late twentieth century.1 In 2004, the National Intelligence Council in its report Mapping the Global Future, noted that “Some experts believe it is only a matter of time before a new pandemic appears, such as the 1918–1919 influenza virus ... Such a pandemic… would be devastating and could spread rapidly throughout the world.”2 In 2008, a careful accounting catalogued the emergence of 335 infectious diseases into humans between 1940 and 2004.3 While a small number of these spread widely or even became established (for example, the HIV virus that causes AIDS), nearly all subsided quickly. But it was clear to microbiologists that the threat was ever-present, and likely increasing. The executive branch first put a national strategy in place for pandemic disease outbreak surveillance and response with Presidential Decision Directive PDD NSTC-7, issued by President Clinton in 1996.4 Since then there has been a series of U.S.

  • @Risk: the Last COVID Mile with Helen Branswell [Music] Jodi: Hey, I’M Jodi Butts
    @Risk: The Last COVID Mile with Helen Branswell [Music] Jodi: Hey, I’m Jodi Butts. And welcome to @Risk, brought to you by Interac. It's been a long risky year in large part due to COVID-19 and its sprawling health and economic consequences. Thanks to the development of effective vaccines, we can finally see some light at the end of the pandemic tunnel. Let's be buoyed by this over the holidays, but not get too ahead of ourselves either. What about this last mile of our COVID-19 journey? What are the potential bottlenecks and stumbling points that we should be looking out for? What should we be considering to ensure we reach our zero COVID-19 destination? To explore these questions I’m joined by Helen Branswell. Helen is Stat News's infectious diseases and global health reporter. She's Canadian and was introduced to epidemic reporting during Toronto's SARS outbreak in 2003. In the years since, she has written about bird flu, the H1N1 flu pandemic, Ebola, Zika, and now leads stats coverage of the coronavirus pandemic. Helen spent the summer of 2004 embedded at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as a CDC knight fellow. In 2010 and 2011, she was a Neiman global health fellow at Harvard where she focused on polio eradication. Nobody covers the COVID-19 vaccine beat more thoughtfully or with more rigor than Helen. Our journey to this point has been long. Let's not stumble now with the end in sight. Lucky for us, Helen Branswell has us covered.

  • Global Vaccination: Trends and U.S
    Global Vaccination: Trends and U.S. Role October 18, 2019 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R45975 SUMMARY R45975 Global Vaccination: Trends and U.S. Role October 18, 2019 For more than 50 years, the United States has taken an interest in the eradication of vaccine- preventable diseases (VPDs) in children worldwide, as well as vaccine research and Sara M. Tharakan development, particularly since playing a vital role in the global campaign to eradicate smallpox Analyst in Global Health in the 1960s. Since then, vaccinating children against VPDs has been a major U.S. foreign policy and International effort. Development Vaccinations are one of the most cost-effective ways to prevent infectious disease and associated morbidity and mortality. According to UNICEF, immunizations save around 3 million lives per year. As of 2019, VPDs continue to cause high levels of morbidity (illness) and mortality (death), and the World Health Organization (WHO) notes that the adoption of new vaccines by low- and middle-income countries (which often have the highest disease burdens) has been slower than in high-income countries. Receiving a vaccination during childhood can protect the recipient from VPDs, decrease the spread of related diseases, and improve child survival prospects (as children, particularly those under five years old, are more likely than adults to die from VPDs). Recently, a global resurgence of certain VPDs has caused concern among public health officials and drawn attention to the challenges of vaccine hesitancy and stigma. For example, polio continues to elude global eradication and remains endemic in three countries. In 2019 measles has seen a resurgence in some middle- and high-income countries due to a variety of factors, including reluctance among some individuals and religious communities to vaccinate their children.

PieterM 0 'Learyt INTRODUCTION Epidemic disease has long played a role in the evolution of man- kind. As mankind evolved, disease impacted his laws. With disease outbreak came chaos, death, and change. As we learned to recognize the causes of disease, laws attempted to prevent and combat the threat.' The combat continues today in our global challenge to halt the spread of devastating diseases like HIV/AIDS. The greatest pending threat modem man faces from infectious disease, however, is not a slow moving disease like HIV/AIDS,2 but a fast moving and virulent influenza outbreak on par with the 1918 pan- demic.3 Such an outbreak would threaten the political, social, and legal fabric holding modem society together.

Ahle The (1918 Spanish Influenza) epidemic killed, at a very, very conservative estimate.. .550,000 Americans in ten months, that's more Americans than died in combat in all the wars of this century... the epidemic killed at least 30 million in the world and infected the majority of the human species... As soon as the dying stopped, the forgetting began.2 The pandemic clock is ticking, we just don't know what time it is.3 I. INTRODUCTION Remember the last time you woke up on a winter morning with a sore throat, fever, and chills? You likely turned off your alarm, called into work sick, crawled back under the covers, and braced yourself to endure the obvious culprit, the flu.
