The need for GIScience in mapping COVID-19

Leah Rosenkrantz et al.

Summary: Since the late 2019 tracking of COVID-19 in China, the virus has shaped global morbidity and mortality patterns, revealing strengths and limitations in health care systems and social safety nets. Real-time mapping tools have strengthened reporting of its impact, but often over-emphasize their usefulness for tracking disease progression and responses, experiencing challenges from messy health data and lack of high-resolution spatial data. Adopting GIScience approaches can address these shortcomings and provide a more accurate view of COVID-19's long-term global health impact.

Pulmonary fibrosis and its related factors in discharged patients with new corona virus pneumonia: a cohort study

Xiaohe Li et al.

Summary: Older age, higher BMI, severe/critical condition, fever, longer viral clearance time, pre-existing disease, and delayed hospitalization were identified as risk factors for developing persistent pulmonary fibrosis in COVID-19 patients. About one-third of fibrotic patients could reverse their condition after around 120 days from onset, and less than half of the patients had their lung function return to normal condition after three months from onset. An effective predictive model with an average AUC of 0.84 was established for early diagnosis of the persistence of pulmonary fibrosis in COVID-19 patients.

From Pandemic Control to Data-Driven Governance: The Case of China's Health Code

Wanshu Cong

Summary: This article provides a detailed analysis of China's health code, comparing it with contact tracing apps developed by Google and Apple, in order to understand the specifications and contradictions internal to its development and deployment. The health code is not strictly a contact tracing tool, but a technology used for population control which raises significant issues related to state governance and public administration in terms of modernization and informatization. Critiques of the health code that only focus on privacy and personal data protection may risk being manipulated by government and technology companies for surveillance and regulatory purposes.
