Association of tiered restrictions and a second lockdown with COVID-19 deaths and hospital admissions in England: a modelling study

Nicholas G. Davies et al.

Summary: The study examined the impact of tiered restrictions and lockdown measures on SARS-CoV-2 transmission, hospital admissions, and deaths from COVID-19. Lockdown measures were found to be more effective in reducing cumulative deaths compared to less stringent restrictions. It was projected that a lockdown policy similar to Wales' would effectively reduce pressure on the health service and suppress deaths over the winter period in England.

Priority allocation of pandemic influenza vaccines in Australia - Recommendations of 3 community juries

C. Degeling et al.

Summary: In the context of an influenza pandemic, community juries in Australia tend to support prioritizing influenza vaccination for primary school students to indirectly protect the general population, as this approach may benefit more people and be more publicly acceptable.

Preventing epidemics by wearing masks: An application to COVID-19

Joao A. M. Gondim

Summary: This work aims to examine the use of face masks as a non-pharmaceutical measure for controlling the COVID-19 pandemic. By utilizing a SEIR model and calculating the basic reproductive number, the study derived criteria for epidemic prevention solely through mask usage and the critical percentage of mask users needed for disease prevention in the population. These findings were then applied to real world data from the United States, Brazil, and Italy.

COVID-19 vaccine: A recent update in pipeline vaccines, their design and development strategies

Kajal Rawat et al.

Summary: COVID-19, caused by a new strain of betacoronavirus named as SARS-CoV-2, poses a huge burden on public health and global economies due to its high transmission rate. Developing vaccines is essential for preventing the spread of the virus and reducing mortality.

Comparing COVID-19 vaccine allocation strategies in India: A mathematical modelling study

Brody H. Foy et al.

Summary: The study found that prioritizing COVID-19 vaccine allocation for older populations can significantly reduce mortality rates; however, this may result in relatively higher total symptomatic infections. Factors such as vaccine efficacy, immunity type, target coverage, and rollout speed significantly influence the effectiveness of vaccine strategies.

Approaches for Optimal Use of Different COVID-19 Vaccines Issues of Viral Variants and Vaccine Efficacy

John P. Moore

Summary: Given the emergence of coronavirus variants and the authorization of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, strategies to maximize vaccine efficacy and distribution include reserving the vaccine for young healthy populations, boosting with a single-dose mRNA vaccine, and single mRNA immunization for those with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Dynamic prioritization of COVID-19 vaccines when social distancing is limited for essential workers

Jack H. Buckner et al.

Summary: Given the limited supply of COVID-19 vaccines, it is crucial to prioritize vaccination across different age and essential worker groups to achieve public health goals, such as minimizing infections and deaths. Depending on the objectives, the prioritization order may vary, with older essential workers typically targeted first but younger essential workers or seniors prioritized based on the goal of controlling spread or mortality. Various factors such as vaccine effectiveness, supply, transmission rate, and initial infections magnitude can influence the optimal prioritization strategy.

COVID-19 vaccines that reduce symptoms but do not block infection need higher coverage and faster rollout to achieve population impact

David A. Swan et al.

Summary: The study aims to assess population impact of vaccines with different efficacy profiles against COVID-19, with high efficacy vaccines projected to prevent more infections and deaths over a year. If uncontrolled transmission persists, expected Spring 2021 vaccinations may only provide limited benefit.

SARS-CoV-2 Spike Mutations, L452R, T478K, E484Q and P681R, in the Second Wave of COVID-19 in Maharashtra, India

Sarah Cherian et al.

Summary: Genomic epidemiology and whole genome sequencing were used to investigate the transmission and evolution of the SARS-CoV-2 virus during the global pandemic. The study identified new variants B.1.617.1 and B.1.617.2 in India, responsible for the second wave of COVID-19 in Maharashtra, with B.1.617.2 designated as a VOC delta and B.1.617.1 as a variant of interest kappa. Monitoring of these and emerging variants in India is crucial for public health.

A rapid review of the use of face mask in preventing the spread of COVID-19

Mary Abboah-Offei et al.

Summary: Face mask usage plays a crucial role in preventing the transmission of respiratory viruses, including COVID-19, among healthcare workers and the general population. Research indicates that masks serve a dual purpose of protecting individuals from getting infected and preventing the spread of viruses to others.

Mask-wearing and control of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in the USA: a cross-sectional study

Benjamin Rader et al.

Summary: Face masks have become common in the USA due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A study investigated the association between self-reported mask-wearing, physical distancing, and SARS-CoV-2 transmission control in the USA. The research found that increased mask-wearing and physical distancing were associated with higher odds of transmission control, even without government mandates.

Fair Allocation of Potential COVID-19 Vaccines Using an Optimization-Based Strategy

Aurora del Carmen Munguia-Lopez et al.

Summary: This study presents an optimization strategy for the allocation of COVID-19 vaccines using different fairness schemes, highlighting the limitations of the commonly used social welfare approach. The research suggests that considering alternative allocation schemes is crucial to identify fair solutions, especially when resources are scarce.
