HPLC2013 Amsterdam is the third meeting in this series that is held in The Netherlands – after 1987 (Amsterdam) and 2001 (Maastricht). Not bad for a country with mostly baseline and very few peaks. Throughout the last fifty or sixty years many chromatographers gathered in our country, starting with van Deemter and following on with the likes of Carel Cramers, Udo Brinkman, and the brilliant Hans Poppe, as well as imported talent, such as Joseph Huber and Roland Frei. Like painters in the 17th century they all found their way to Amsterdam. Amsterdam is one of the natural hubs of the old and the new Europe. Odds are that you found it easy to get here. In fact, odds are that you have been here before and that you will come back. Although us Dutch can be impolite and ill-mannered (not only the cab drivers), we do appreciate you being here. To demonstrate our hospitality, just about everyone in Amsterdam can communicate with you in English. We offer you a generous amount of separation science this week. We have three hours of lectures on a typical morning or afternoon, plus posters, technical seminars and tutorials. We offer you generous amounts of coffee, food, and drinks (on four occasions during the week). We offer you free internet at the conference and Petra’s posse is offering all the help you need. And, yes, we are frugal! I have great memories of the incredible HPLC1987 Amsterdam. Our aim is to give you a week that you will treasure until at least 2040. On behalf of the entire team of HPLC2013 Amsterdam, welcome!

  • The Following Is a Draft Translation of the Summons by Jeroen Pols and Willem De Engel Seeking an Immediate End to the Lockdown Measures
    (The following is a draft translation of the summons by Jeroen Pols and Willem de Engel seeking an immediate end to the lockdown measures. Pol and de Engel are part of the group Viruswaanzin) Introduction 1. On 27 February 2020, the first contamination of COVID-19 was detected in the Netherlands. After the WHO classified the outbreak as a pandemic on 11 March 2020, all countries worldwide proceeded to take drastic measures on an unprecedented scale in modern history. In the Netherlands, the outbreak led to strict measures whereby social traffic was virtually shut down due to the closure of schools, universities, libraries, museums, cinemas, restaurants, cafes, gyms, and barbershops. In addition, heavy restrictions have been placed on the freedom of movement of the population, which means that even the non-closed part of society is limited to a very small number of people and can only function to a limited extent. The use of emergency ordinances has been used to enforce these social restrictions and everyone has been urged to stay at home as much as possible. Recreational areas and sports facilities have also been closed or made inaccessible.After more than two months of measures, the official death toll in the Netherlands is 5,830 (persons who died with COVID-19, up until 25 May 2020). Although the actual number that have died with COVID-19 is significantly higher, it has now been established that the virus has only contributed substantially to the cause of death in a few cases. The elderly with underlying health conditions were particularly susceptible to the virus.

  • Naar Aanleiding Van De Update Van De Webpagina 'Aanvullende Informatie Diagnostiek COVID-19 Bijlage Bij De LCI-Richtlijn COVID
    Toelichting op vraag van Haga aan Jaap van Dissel RIVM A. van Leeuwenhoeklaan 9 Naar aanleiding van de update van de webpagina ‘Aanvullende informatie 3721 MA Bilthoven Postbus 1 diagnostiek COVID-19 Bijlage bij de LCI-richtlijn COVID-19 | Versie 25 september 3720 BA Bilthoven 2020’ (https://lci.rivm.nl/covid-19/bijlage/aanvullend) zijn een aantal vragen www.rivm.nl gesteld. Updates van deze bijlage naar de huidige stand van ontwikkelingen en T 030 274 91 11 inzichten vinden regelmatig plaats. [email protected] Vraag: waarom is de afkapwaarde voor de Ct-waarde bij de PCR aangepast? RIVM 15 oktober 2020 Deze vraag refereert naar de volgende zinsnede in het document: Daar stond in de voorgaande versie van het document de Ct-waarde >30. De onderliggende vraag bij de vraag naar aanpassing van deze waarde suggereert dat het hier gaat om een afkapwaarde die onderscheid maakt tussen positief en negatief. Dat is niet zo. Het gaat hier om een waarschuwingswaarde. Ct-waarden van COVID-19 patiënten kunnen typisch variëren van circa 15 tot 40, met de meerderheid tussen 20 en 35 (grenzen afhankelijk van gebruikte apparatuur en chemie voor de PCR-test). Tegen de limiet van detectie van de PCR-test die zich typisch tussen Ct 35 en 40 bevindt, moeten de amplificatiecurves extra goed bekeken worden of ze aan de S-curve eis voldoen. De tekst gaat over de Ct-waarde waarboven men extra alert moet zijn bij beoordelen van de amplificatiecurves. Het betreft een aanwijzing die kan helpen bij de beoordeling van de diagnostiek. Sommige laboratoria gebruiken om te bepalen of de PCR-test positief of negatief is een Ct afkapwaarde of andere afkapwaarde voor methoden waarbij geen Ct-waarde wordt gegenereerd.

  • Estimation of COVID-19 Prevalence from Serology Tests: a Partial Identification Approach Panos Toulis JUNE 2020
    WORKING PAPER · NO. 2020-54 Estimation of COVID-19 Prevalence from Serology Tests: A Partial Identification Approach Panos Toulis JUNE 2020 5757 S. University Ave. Chicago, IL 60637 Main: 773.702.5599 bfi.uchicago.edu Estimation of Covid-19 Prevalence from Serology Tests: A Partial Identification Approach Panos Toulis∗ University of Chicago, Booth School of Business Abstract We propose a partial identification method for estimating disease prevalence from serology studies. Our data are results from antibody tests in some population sample, where the test parameters, such as the true/false positive rates, are unknown. Our method scans the entire parameter space, and rejects parameter values using the joint data density as the test statistic. The proposed method is conservative for marginal inference, in general, but its key advantage over more standard approaches is that it is valid in finite samples even when the underlying model is not point identified. Moreover, our method requires only independence of serology test results, and does not rely on asymptotic arguments, normality assumptions, or other approximations. We use recent Covid-19 serology studies in the US, and show that the parameter confidence set is generally wide, and cannot support definite conclusions. Specifically, recent serology studies from California suggest a prevalence anywhere in the range 0%-2% (at the time of study), and are therefore inconclusive. However, this range could be narrowed down to 0.7%-1.5% if the actual false positive rate of the antibody test was indeed near its empirical estimate (∼0.5%). In another study from New York state, Covid-19 prevalence is confidently estimated in the range 13%-17% in mid-April of 2020, which also suggests significant geographic variation in Covid-19 exposure across the US.

  • Managing Tipping Points in Developing Coping Strategies for Emergency Response During the First Wave of the COVID-19 Outbreak in Europe
    Article Cope or Perish? Managing Tipping Points in Developing Coping Strategies for Emergency Response during the First Wave of the COVID-19 Outbreak in Europe Tom van der Voorn 1,* and Martin de Jong 2,3,4 1 Institute of Environmental Systems Research, University of Osnabrück, Barbarastr. 12, D-49069 Osnabrück, Germany 2 Erasmus School of Law, Erasmus University Rotterdam, 3000 DR Rotterdam, The Netherlands; [email protected] 3 Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University Rotterdam, 3000 DR Rotterdam, The Netherlands 4 Institute for Global Public Policy, Fudan University, Shanghai 200433, China * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: When the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic started to manifest itself across the globe at an unprecedented pace and magnitude, the various emergency response strategies pursued by highly affected countries in Europe raised many questions about their supposed effectiveness. To contain the outbreak, a rapid and adequate emergency response was vital to control emergent public health risks, but emergency management was challenged by large uncertainty due to many unknowns about crucial determinants of the outbreak, determining the effectiveness of the response, which was often derived from uncertain information. This paper aims to draw lessons from the first wave Citation: van der Voorn, T.; de Jong, of the COVID-19 pandemic and it presents a review of strategies for emergency response pursued M. Cope or Perish? Managing in eight European countries, including tipping points that triggered strategy shifts in emergency Tipping Points in Developing Coping response. The paper shows that: (i) these countries have a culturally determined preference for policy Strategies for Emergency Response response style (Mediterranean, continental and liberal style) depending on their relative scores on during the First Wave of the power distance and uncertainty avoidance, which (ii) is reflected in the initially adopted control COVID-19 Outbreak in Europe.

Het is onduidelijk in hoever de filosoof-mathematicus de overweging ernstig nam. De ‘gok’ wordt voorgesteld als een soort indirect godsbewijs. Pascal schetst de volgende situatie. Over het bestaan van God heeft men geen informatie. Het leven is echter van die aard dat men moét kiezen tussen twee mogelijkheden: ‘geloof in God’ of ‘geen geloof in God’. De gok is verplicht (‘Il faut parier’) en heeft gevolgen die in onderstaande matrix worden samengevat. Indien men in God gelooft moet men tijdens het aardse leven afzien van bepaalde genoegens. Tijdens het korte leven op aarde veroorzaakt geloof in God dus een eindig verlies. Na de dood zijn er twee mogelijkheden. Ofwel is er geen God en geen hiernamaals. In dat geval heeft het geloof in God een eindig verlies opgeleverd. Ofwel is er wel een God en een hierna- maals. In dat geval levert het geloof in God de eeuwige zaligheid op, terwijl ongeloof leidt tot eeuwige verdoemenis. Winst respectievelijk verlies zijn in dit scenario oneindig groot. Bijgevolg gokt men best op geloof in God: het moge- lijk verlies is beperkt terwijl de mogelijke winst oneindig groot is.

  • 'Follow the Science'? Reflections on SAGE Meetings
    Paul Cairney, Professor of Politics and Public Policy, University of Stirling [email protected] Draft 8.7.20 COVID-19 policy in the UK: Did the UK Government ‘follow the science’? Reflections on SAGE meetings SAGE is the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies. The text up there comes from the UK Government description. SAGE is the main venue to coordinate science advice to the UK government on COVID-19, including from NERVTAG (the New and Emerging Respiratory Virus Threats Advisory Group, reporting to PHE), and the SPI-M (Scientific Pandemic Influenza Group on Modelling) sub-groups on modelling (SPI-M) and behavioural public policy (SPI-B) which supply meeting papers to SAGE. I have summarized SAGE’s minutes (41 meetings, from 22 January to 11 June) and meeting/ background papers (125 papers, estimated range 1-51 pages, median 4, not-peer-reviewed, often produced a day after a request) in a ridiculously long table. This thing is huge (40 pages and 20000 words). It is the sequoia table. It is the humongous fungus. Even Joey Chestnut could not eat this table in one go. To make your SAGE meal more palatable, here is a series of blog posts that situate these minutes and papers in their wider context. This initial post is unusually long, so I’ve put in a photo to break it up a bit. Did the UK government ‘follow the science’? I use the overarching question Did the UK Government ‘follow the science’? initially for the clickbait. I reckon that, like a previous favourite (people have ‘had enough of experts’), ‘following the science’ is a phrase used by commentators more frequently than the original users of the phrase.

  • Redesign of the Didactics of S(E)IR(D) → SI(EY)A(CD) Models of Infectious Epidemics Reference to Exit Strategies for the Economic Crisis
    Redesign of the didactics of S(E)IR(D) → SI(EY)A(CD) models of infectious epidemics Reference to exit strategies for the economic crisis. A nasty virus, asking for eradication. Could the virus be used as its own vaccine for some ? How immune will one be ? Didactics on modeling of the SARS-CoV-2 (covid-19) pandemic of 2020, with the example case of Holland. Prevent or prepare for the next pandemic, perhaps already this Fall or Winter. Thomas Colignatus June 15 2020 https://zenodo.org/communities/re-engineering-math-ed/about/ Abstract This notebook and package redesign the didactics of the classic SIR, SIRD and SEIRD models. A first step is to relabel to SI(EY)A(CD). The acquitted A = C + D are the cleared or deceased. This avoids the triple use of R for removed, recovered and reproductive number. The infected I = E + Y are the exposed and infectious. The basic structure is given by the Euler-Lotka renewal equation. The format of ordinary differential equations (ODE) should not distract. The deceased are a fraction of the acquitted, D = φ A, with φ the infection fatality factor (IFF). The ODE format D’ = μ I or D’ = μ Y can be rejected since it turns the model into a course in differential equations, with the need to prove D = φ A what can already be stated from the start. The ODE format also causes distracting questions what μ might be and whether there is a difference between a lethal acquittal period and a clearing acquittal period, and how parameters values must be adapted when the acquittal rate γ changes.
