This was a longitudinal retrospective cohort study of patients ���20 years-old who were hospitalised due to COVID-19 in 52 hospitals comprising a private Brazilian healthcare network (Rede D���Or S��o Luiz). Participating institutions were tertiary hospitals distributed across four (Northeast, Central-West, Southeast, and South) of Brazil���s five macro-regions. Data were extracted from the institutional central database comprised of COVID-19 diagnoses and related deaths (both of which are of compulsory notification to the BMH). Participating hospitals utilized a standardized data collection model including weekly reporting to the BMH. The study period included the first 13 months of the pandemic, i.e., from March 1st, 2020 to March 31st, 2021. All patients hospitalised due to COVID-19 (as the primary diagnosis upon admission) who were either discharged or died were included

The article aims to make a theoretical and political discussion of the concept of the Health Economic-Industrial Complex (CEIS), updating the concept to a contemporary context of technological transformation and of challenges for universal health systems, particular the Brazilian Unified National Health System (SUS). In a context of asymmetric globalization, of emergence of a technological revolution, and of the (re)placement of structural barriers that keeps Brazilian society in its historical movement of inequality, vulnerability, and exclusion, we need to rethink healthcare by resuming and updating an agenda that privileges the historical-structural factors of Brazilian society, the international insertion of the country, and its relationship with an extremely asymmetric diffusion of technical progress, knowledge, and learning, dissociated from local social and environmental needs. With a methodology that involves the analysis of the brazilian response to COVID-19, the commercial balance of the CEIS, and the access to COVID-19 vaccines, the study shows that health is a central part of the economic and social structure and reproduces the characteristics of the national development pattern within it. An equitable society, with quality of life, committed to social rights and the environment is structurally conditioned by the existence of an economic and material basis that supports it. This systemic and dialectical view is the main theoretical and political contribution intended by our study, which seeks to contribute to a collective health approach integrated with a political economy view.

Formative online assessment during the COVID-19 pandemic at the Faculty of medicine, University of Geneva Abstract

COVID-19 positivity or negativity was confirmed by real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction assays of nasal and pharyngeal swab specimens. COVID-19 patients hospitalised between 20 January 2020 and 20 February 2020 at the First Affiliated Hospital of the University of Science and Technology of China in Anhui Province were enrolled and divided into two groups (severe group and mild group) according to the Diagnosis and Treatment Scheme for Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia (Trial, 6th Edition) published by the National Health Commission of China.

Abstract Objective The present study aimed to evaluate the antenatal care adequacy for women who gave birth at the University Hospital of Santa Catarina in Florianopolis (Brazil) during the COVID-19 pandemic, and to evaluate the association of adequacy with sociodemographic, clinical, and access characteristics. Methods Data were collected between October and December 2020, including 254 patients who delivered in the University Hospital from Federal University of Santa Catarina and answered our questionnaires. Additional data were obtained from patients’ antenatal booklets. Antenatal care was classified as adequate, intermediate, or inadequate according to the number of appointments, gestational age at the beginning of follow-up, and tests results. We carried out a descriptive statistical analysis and a bivariate/with odds ratio analysis onmaternal sociodemographic, clinical and health access variables that were compared with antenatal adequacy. Results Antenatal care was considered adequate in 35.8% of cases, intermediate in 46.8%, and inadequate in 17.4%. The followingmaternal variables were associated with inadequate prenatal care (intermediate or inadequate prenatal care): having black or brown skin colour, having two or more children, being of foreign nationality, not being fluent in Portuguese, and using illicit drugs during pregnancy; the clinical variables were more than 6 weeks between appointments, and not attending high-risk antenatal care; as for access, the variables were difficulties in attending or scheduling appointments, and attending virtual appointments only. Conclusion In a sample of pregnant women from a teaching hospital in Florianópolis during the COVID-19 pandemic, antenatal care was considered adequate in 35.8%, intermediate in 46.8%, and inadequate in 17.4% of cases.

The last decade faced a number of pandemics [1]. The current outbreak of COVID is creating havoc globally. The daily incidences of COVID-2019 from 11th January 2020 to 9th May 2020 were collected from the official COVID dashboard of world health organization (WHO) [2] , i.e. https://covid19.who.int/explorer. The data is updated with the population of the countries and further Case fatality rate, Basic Attack Rate (BAR) and Household Secondary Attack Rate (HSAR) are computed for all the countries. The data would be used by epidemiologists [3], data scientists and medical professionals across the world to draft various preventive and prescriptive measures for handling this outbreak.
