  • Strategies for Improving Influenza Immunization Rates Among Hard-To-Reach Populations
    Journal of Urban Health: Bulletin of the New York Academy of Medicine, Vol. 84, No. 4 doi:10.1007/s11524-007-9197-z * 2007 The New York Academy of Medicine For permissions, please e-mail: [email protected] Advance Access publication Strategies for Improving Influenza Immunization Rates among Hard-to-Reach Populations David Vlahov, Micaela H. Coady, Danielle C. Ompad, and Sandro Galea ABSTRACT Whereas considerable attention has been devoted to achieving high levels of influenza immunization, the importance of this issue is magnified by concern over pandemic influenza. Most recommendations for vaccine administration address high risk groups such as the elderly and those with chronic diseases, but coverage for hard- to-reach (HTR) populations has had less attention. HTR populations include minorities but also include other primarily urban groups such as undocumented immigrants, substance users, the homeless, and homebound elderly. Obstacles to the provision of immunization to HTR populations are present at the patient, provider, and structural levels. Strategies at the individual level for increasing immunization coverage include community-based educational campaigns to improve attitudes and increase motivation for receiving vaccine; at the provider level, education of providers to encourage immunizations, improving patient–provider interactions, broadening the provider base to include additional nurses and pharmacists, and adoption of standing orders for immunization administration; and at the structural level, promoting

  • Common Coronaviruses Are Highly Seasonal, with Most Cases Peaking in Winter Months 8 April 2020, by Nardy Baeza Bickel
    Common coronaviruses are highly seasonal, with most cases peaking in winter months 8 April 2020, by Nardy Baeza Bickel landscape, continue with limited circulation as with MERS, or like SARS, disappear from humans altogether." The researchers note that while coronaviruses have long been recognized as human respiratory pathogens, human coronaviruses have historically been detected in mild respiratory illnesses; when animal coronaviruses spill over to humans, however, they can cause severe disease. Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in 2002 and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) in 2012 both emerged when a coronavirus jumped from an animal to people. The COVID-19 pandemic is Coronavirus. Credit: European Centers for Disease believed to have started in the same way. Control Monto and colleagues used data from the Household Influenza Vaccine Evaluation study, an ongoing longitudinal investigation of respiratory Of the seven coronaviruses known to infect illnesses in households with children in the Ann people, four cause common respiratory infections Arbor area.

Martin, Chair Associate Professor Adam S. Lauring Professor Carl F. Marrs Professor Arnold S. Monto Assistant Professor Jon Zelner Hannah E. Segaloff [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0003-4716-7468 © Hannah E. Segaloff, 2019 Dedication To my family and my friends, and most of all, to my husband. I couldn’t have done this without all of you. ii Acknowledgements There are so many individuals who have made completion of this dissertation possible and to whom I owe many thanks. First, I would like to thank the chair of my committee, Dr. Emily Martin. From even before I began the doctoral program you provided me with guidance, knowledge and confidence, which was and is invaluable to me. I have experienced so much growth as an epidemiologist and as a person in the past four years, and much of that is due to your mentorship, for which I am grateful. Thank you also to the rest of my dissertation committee, Dr. Arnold Monto, Dr. Jon Zelner, Dr. Adam Lauring, and Dr. Carl Marrs. You all not only provided important advice and guidance, but also had my best interests in mind throughout the process. Thank you, Carl, for being a mentor over the past eight years, it is safe to say that I would not be where I am now without your guidance and direction.
