COVID-19 Feb Welcome & Introductions • Thank you for joining us today. • In the chat box, please enter your name and the name of any business or organization that you represent. • Please hold all questions until our Q&A 1 and discussion period. COVID-19 Feb. 19, 2021 1 Today’s agenda Black History Month spotlight. Health equity strategies update. Town Hall meetings update. COVID-19 vaccination update. COVID-19 Feb. 19, 2021 2 Black History Month ➡ Profiles of African Americans in the field of infectious disease. COVID-19 Feb. 19, 2021 3 Dr. Kizzmekia Corbett Born 1986 Kizzmekia "Kizzy" Shanta Corbett, PhD, is an American viral immunologist at the Vaccine Research Center (VRC) at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health (NIAID NIH). She was appointed to the VRC in 2014, and is the scientific lead of the VRC's Coronavirus Team, with research efforts aimed at propelling novel coronavirus vaccines, including development of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. Corbett was born in 1986 in Hurdle Mills, North Carolina, to Rhonda Brooks. She grew up in Hillsborough, North Carolina, where she had a large family of step-siblings and foster siblings. After earning her bachelor's degree, Corbett became a biological sciences trainer at the NIH. Corbett earned a doctorate in microbiology and immunology from the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill in 2014. Her early research at NIH considered the development of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) vaccine antigens. During this time, she identified a simple way to make spike proteins that are stabilized in a conformation that renders them more immunogenic and manufacturable. Her work also focused on innovative vaccine platform advancement, and human antibody responses to dengue virus (a mosquito-borne viral disease), and how the genetics of dengue fever impact the severity of a disease. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Corbett started working on a vaccine to protect people from coronavirus disease. She is currently volunteering her time to educate people about the safety and efficacy of the vaccine.

  • An Evaluation of Zoom and Microsoft Teams Video Conferencing
    An Evaluation of Zoom and Microsoft Teams Video Conferencing Software with Network Packet Loss and Latency An Interactive Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science Eric Baccei, Alexander Clopper, Taylan Sel Submitted to: Professor Mark Claypool Worcester Polytechnic Institute 1 Abstract Video conferencing is an increasingly important form of communication, but there are few studies on how network quality affects new conferencing services. We studied Zoom and Microsoft Teams, video conferencing tools targeted towards businesses. Our user study had users rate their experiences during simulated normal conversation with network latencies and packet drop. Our study found that the network conditions did not significantly change user ratings, but Zoom had higher ratings than Microsoft Teams overall. Analysis of our benchmarking results showed that although network traffic for both services varied with network conditions, Zoom had a more constant bitrate than Teams which aligned with the responses received in the user study. 2 Table of Contents Abstract 1 Table of Figures 4 1- Introduction 6 2 - Background and Related Work 9 2.1 - Video Compression Technology 9 2.1.1 - MPEG 9 2.1.2 - H.261 / H.263 10 2.1.3 - Comparison 12 2.2 - Digital Communication Architectures 13 2.2.1 - Peer to Peer Connection 13 2.2.1 - Client-Server Connection 14 2.3 - Network Protocols 15 2.3.1 - TCP 15 2.3.2 - UDP 16 2.3.3 - MQTT 17 2.4 - Tools

  • Continuity of Education Plan
    Continuity of Education Plan School District Lancaster County Career & Technology Center Superintendent Administrative Director, Stuart Savin Address 1730 Hans Herr Drive, Willow Street, PA 17584 Email/Phone [email protected]/ 717-464-7053 Website www.lancasterctc.edu Goal of Plan The Lancaster County Career & Technology Center believes it is important for our students to remain engaged and continue learning the career area they have chosen to pursue by attending the CTC. It is important to us that we continue developing opportunities to students that promote their career goals and are able to see them through to gainful employment, post secondary schooling or military service. While our educational services focus on a hand-on learning approach, we have always emphasized the theoretical knowledge. This shift to a virtual setting will allow for students to expand theory knowledge while still participating in developing skills in a different format. Our staff are prepared to rise to the challenge of delivering these services to our students to continue the proud tradition and excellent education provided by the LCCTC. Many students were beginning and preparing to culminate their training with a NOCTI assessment and participation in work-based experiences. Unfortunately, these circumstances have taken away opportunity to further develop skills and experience clinical and cooperative education opportunities. NOCTI assessments have been cancelled by the Department of Education. As a result of the cancellation of the NOCTI assessment, students will not qualify for statewide articulation through SOAR. The LCCTC will work with colleges on individual agreements for student articulations. Moving forward, our curriculum focus will be on honing previously learned skills and preparing students for the various industry certifications, many of which can be earned online.
