Reusability of Facemasks During an Influenza Pandemic
Author: Institute of Medicine
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309101824
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
Any strategy to cope with an influenza pandemic must be based on the knowledge and tools that are available at the time an epidemic may occur. In the near term, when we lack an adequate supply of vaccine and antiviral medication, strategies that rely on social distancing and physical barriers will be relatively more prominent as means to prevent spread of disease. The use of respirators and facemasks is one key part of a larger strategy to establish barriers and increase distance between infected and uninfected individuals. Respirators and facemasks may have a role in both clinical care and community settings. Reusability of Facemasks During an Influenza Pandemic: Facing the Flu answers a specific question about the role of respirators and facemasks to reduce the spread of flu: Can respirators and facemasks that are designed to be disposable be reused safely and effectively? The committee-assisted by outstanding staff-worked intensively to review the pertinent literature; consult with manufacturers, researchers, and medical specialists; and apply their expert judgment. This report offers findings and recommendations based on the evidence, pointing to actions that are appropriate now and to lines of research that can better inform future decisions.

Adventures of an Au Pair
Author: Jonnathan South
Publisher: Europa Edizioni
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 134
Book Description
In Adventures of an Au Pair, the author takes the reader on a journey to feel a whirlwind of sensations and engage emotionally to discover where social relations create deep interconnections. Viewed through the author’s lens, it’s a story of generational changes throughout which nostalgia merges with hope and zest for life. Based on the real life of the author born in ex-Yugoslavia, this autobiography depicts very well the divergence and the struggles of a country that has journeyed through communism and has experienced divisions in comparison to the democratic society of the United Kingdom and other nearby countries. Within its cover, Family represents a column with an unusual background. Friendship marks a pillar to rely on. Music and its evolution in technology (and those artists who made its history) function as background and soundtrack. A book that deserves to be read. Its sense of humour permeates throughout, making the narrative smooth, pleasant and compelling - a real treasure to dip into. Jonnathan South Born in the Seventies, in a country at the time called Yugoslavia, the author spent his childhood witnessing the communistic era of President Tito, with all the contradictions of a country whose boundaries (partially Balkan-called) historically have been widely disputed. When he decided to move to the UK, he was in his twenties and started to work as a male au pair, obtaining the Cambridge Certificate of Proficiency in English. After writing for around thirty years for his own pleasure, in 2020, he published his first book, Morality As It Stands. His first-hand experience in different societies has exposed him to different ideologies of governance which have formed him as a person with a wider-lensed outlook on life. This book is the witty and emotionally provoking description of part of this adventurous and unconventional life.

Book Description
“A prescient, human and hopeful portrait of medical experts on a pandemic’s frontlines.”—People Hannah, Compton, and Kira have been close friends since medical school, reuniting once a year for a much-needed vacation. Just as they gather to travel in Spain, an outbreak of a fast-spreading virus throws the world into chaos. When Compton Winfield returns to her job as an ER doctor in New York City, she finds a city changed beyond recognition—and a personal loss so gutting it reshapes every aspect of her life. Hannah Geier’s career as an ob-gyn in San Diego is fulfilling but she’s always longed for a child of her own. After years of trying, Hannah discovers she's expecting a baby just as the disease engulfs her city. Kira Marchand, an infectious disease doctor at the CDC in Atlanta, finds herself at the center of the American response to the terrifying new illness. Her professional battle turns personal when she must decide whether her children will receive an experimental but potentially life-saving treatment. Written prior to Covid-19 by a former emergency medicine physician, Doctors and Friends incorporates unexpected wit, razor-edged poignancy, and a deeply relatable cast of characters who provoke both laughter and tears. Martin provides a unique insider’s perspective into the world of medical professionals working to save lives during the most difficult situations of their careers.
