Mobility, exposure, and epidemiological timelines of COVID-19 infections in China outside Hubei province

Xiao Fan Liu et al.

Summary: The 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has been pseudonymously linked to over 100 million cases worldwide as of January 2021. The lack of high-quality data for understanding and combating COVID-19 is highlighted, with a detailed hand-coded dataset provided containing rich features for Characterization of COVID-19's epidemiological properties. This dataset is considered a baseline for COVID-19 transmissibility under extreme mitigation measures, serving as a reference for comparative scientific investigation and public policymaking.

Design of COVID-19 staged alert systems to ensure healthcare capacity with minimal closures

Haoxiang Yang et al.

Summary: Community mitigation strategies to combat COVID-19 can have substantial socioeconomic costs, but judicious implementation and relaxation of restrictions can enhance public health benefits while reducing costs. Establishing triggers for increasing mitigation measures based on daily COVID-19 hospital admissions can ensure sufficient ICU capacity and minimize the duration of strict mitigation measures. The study suggests that tracking COVID-19 hospital admissions and enacting staged measures can help cities worldwide to navigate future pandemic waves effectively.

Afraid to travel after COVID-19? Self-protection, coping and resilience against pandemic 'travel fear '

Danni Zheng et al.

Summary: The study found that threat severity and susceptibility can trigger the public's "travel fear" and lead to protective travel behaviors after the pandemic. Additionally, "travel fear" can evoke different coping strategies, increasing people's psychological resilience and cautious travel behaviors.
