Leveraging Technology as a Response to the COVID Pandemic
by Paul Frisch (Editor), Harry Pappas (Editor)
English | 2022 | ISBN: ‎ 0367769301 | 239 pages | True PDF | 13.77 MB

In 2019 the world was struck with the Coronavirus (COVID-19) infecting major portions of the world's population. There were no vaccines or treatments available to help mitigate the disease or offer a cure. The world's health systems were inundated with massive numbers of patients with varying ranges of symptoms, acuity, and levels of criticality. The world's healthcare organizations soon found themselves in an unmanageable situation, directly impacting the ability to manage patients across the entire healthcare environment. Most healthcare institutions had plans for emergency preparedness and procedures to deal with temporary crises, none of which were effective against the impact of COVID-19. COVID-19 was a highly contagious disease, resulting in high volumes of admissions with long lengths of stay. The virus quickly overwhelmed institutions with large patient volumes, resulting in shortages of patient beds, medical equipment, personal protective devices, cleaning agents, and other critical supplies. Hospital operations were further impacted by staff shortages due to exposure, resulting contagion, the shutdown of transit systems, and responsibilities at home due to college and business closures.

This timely and important book describes the impact on the hospital ability to provide patient care and how healthcare institutions leveraged diverse technology solutions to combat the impact of COVID-19 on providing patient care. The authors also discuss implementation of these technology solutions and the many lessons learned of how healthcare institutions can enhance their emergency preparedness in the future from the COVID experience.

The authors would like to acknowledge, thank, and dedicate this book to the hundreds of thousands of healthcare workers around the world who spent countless hours and put their own lives and families lives at risk to help patients though this pandemic.

Revitalising ASEAN Economies in a Post-COVID-19 World: Socioeconomic Issues in the New Normal
by Hooi Hooi Lean (Editor)
English | 2022 | ISBN:‎ 9811228469 | 283 pages | True PDF/EPUB | 14.77 MB

The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic was reported in China in December 2019, and later spread to other parts of the world. Countries in Southeast Asia were some of the first nations affected by the pandemic due to their geographical proximities and trade relations with China. In January 2020, the virus spread to some countries within the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). The number of confirmed cases kept increasing within ASEAN and other countries of the world. Consequently, countries in ASEAN introduced preventive and containment measures to cope with the pandemic, which include quarantines, lockdowns, restrictions of movements and large gatherings, as well as college and business closures.
Beyond the efforts of preventing and containing the spread of the virus, ASEAN's most significant challenges are the social and economic crisis of historic proportions that are beginning to unfold. COVID-19 pandemic has brought interruptions in all sectors of ASEAN economies. It is, therefore, imperative to assess the extent to which the pandemic has impacted the social and economic aspects of the region. This book intends to highlight the social and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in ASEAN and suggest ways on how to mitigate them. It covers how the shocks from COVID-19 have impacted production, supply chains, demand, commodity prices, consumer behaviour, financial markets, employment, services, transportation and community, and the various policies that ASEAN authorities should put in place to mitigate the effects of the pandemic.

Consuming Crisis: Commodifying Care and COVID-19
by Francesca Sobande
English | 2023 | ISBN: ‎ 1529793971 | 161 pages | True PDF EPUB | 8.08 MB

Consuming Crisis is a crucial account of how consumer culture capitalized on Coronavirus (COVID-19). Sobande explores how brands claim to care while they encourage people to 'keep calm and consume'. This critical analysis of the power and politics of marketing examines an eclectic mix of campaigns, content, and experiences. Such work outlines the societal significance of fast-fashion adverts, banana bread's pandemic 'moment', university social media strategies, and how digital technology mediates memories and work. Based on the belief that brands cannot be activists, Sobande creatively considers how brands construct care, camaraderie, culture, and so-called 'normal' life during times of crisis.

Francesca Sobande is a Senior Lecturer in Digital Media Studies at Cardiff University

EU Fiscal Capacity: Legal Integration After Covid-19 and the War in Ukraine
by Federico Fabbrini
English | 2022 | ISBN: ‎ 0198874235 | 182 pages | True EPUB | 5.46 MB

The explosion of the Covid-19 pandemic in February 2020 led to a paradigm change in the European Union architecture of economic governance. To mitigate the pandemic's damage, the EU established a Recovery Fund called 'Next Generation EU' (NGEU). Funded though resources raised on the financial markets, this special budget is worth 750bn€ at 2018 prices, which corresponds to 806,9bn€ at current prices. Disbursed to member states in the form of both loans
and grants and to be repaid on a long-term basis through the introduction of new EU taxes, the NGEU has endowed the EU with borrowing, spending, and taxing powers.

EU Fiscal Capacity: Legal Integration After Covid-19 and the War in Ukraine argues that the NGEU constiutes a profound overhaul in the EU architecture of economic governance. Moving away from the fiscal surveillance shown in response to the euro-crisis, the EU has adopted a strategy of fiscal federalism more akin to the United States.

The return of war in Europe following 75 years of peace has caused yet more socio-economic damage for the EU. Occuring as Europe was slowly re-emerging from the pandemic, the war in Ukraine has disrupted supply chains, increased humanitarian assistance costs, and generated an energy crisis. Within the context of war, the limitations of the current EU constitutional arrangements have yet again been exposed. EU Fiscal Capacity argues that the EU needs to retain the NGEU as a permanent
feature of EMU.

The first book to analyse how the Covid-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine have affected Europe's Economic & Monetary Union from an EU law and policy perspective, this book is a must read for policy makers and students of European law and politics alike.

Data Science Applications of Post-COVID-19 Psychological Disorders
by Vijayalakshmi Kakulapati (Editor)
English | 2022 | ISBN: ‎ 979-8886971651 | 314 pages | True PDF | 19.1 MB

The COVID-19 epidemic has thrown the globe into chaos as governments struggle to contain the virus's spread. While considerable attention has been paid to health problems, reports of the social-psychological impacts of this pandemic are on the increase, ranging from mental distress and personal disputes to racial assaults and patriotic behaviors. Moreover, these social-psychological impacts may have long-term repercussions that will likely outlast the epidemic. Globally, the physical impacts of COVID-19 may be felt. The influence of Post-COVID-19 on mental health is a subject that has not been well explored. The reaction to the Covid-19 pandemic may resemble the response to natural catastrophes or other comparable catastrophic occurrences affecting a community and may create chronic anguish in the afflicted population. The psychological reaction to the Covid-19 epidemic has been immediately recorded; in communities rarely affected, it resembles symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The unfavorable psychological effects of COVID-19, such as anxiety and depression, have been widely expected but have not yet been precisely quantified. Data science enables academics to evaluate the past and future consequences of mental diseases on the United States and worldwide populations.

Marketing by Contingency in the Time of Covid-19: Overcoming Business Crises and Meeting Marketing Challenges provides conceptual and empirical evidence from a marketing and business perspective about how firms and nonprofit organizations in developing countries have coped with the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Covid-19 pandemic became not only a health threat but also a business threat and challenge. This book analyzes successful―and failed―marketing strategies that have been implemented by renowned and emerging firms and nonprofit organizations in reaction to the unprecedented market situation caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. Using case studies, the chapters identify the elements that were critical for strengthening a product or company's brand value, consumer satisfaction, and loyalty during this time of crisis and uncertainty. The information and experiences shared here show how organizations learned to be resilient and reacted to challenging market situations using creativity and innovation to present consumers with prompt solutions to cover their most basic needs. Topics cover brand engagement, influencer marketing, building consumer trust, navigating restrictive conditions using analytics and predictive modeling, internal marketing, and more.
Key features:

Presents and assesses strategies to react to business challenges―both economic and social
Provides conceptual and empirical evidence on how to deliver value to consumers in times of uncertainty
Shows the reality faced by businesses and nonprofit organizations when a crisis emerges
Evaluates the critical role of social media and e-commerce as strategic resources to help business and nonprofit organizations survive―and even grow―during a crisis
Examines the role of internal marketing during a pandemic

The successes and failures of the marketing strategies discussed in this volume will aid professors and students, business leaders, marketing professionals, public relations professionals, and others in identifying the processes needed to overcome business and social troubles during periods of crisis.

Covid-19 Responses of Local Communities around the World: Exploring Trust in the Context of Risk and Fear
by Khun Eng Kuah (Editor), Gilles Guiheux (Editor), Francis K.G. Lim (Editor)
English | 2022 | ISBN: ‎ 978-1032270760 | 211 pages | True PDF | 5.01 MB

Presenting a wide range of international case studies, the contributors to this book study the impact of Covid-19 on the risks faced by communities around the globe.
Examining cases from the Americas, Europe and Asia - including Mexico, Brazil, China, India, France, and Belgium - Kuah, Guiheux, Lim and their collaborators look at how communities have coped with the social and economic impacts of the pandemic, as well as the public health concerns. Using a framework of risks, fear, and trust, they evaluate how the global health crisis has both revealed and exacerbated a deep crisis of confidence in institutions and systems around the world. In reaction to this they also look at how individuals, social groups and communities have faced fears and built trust at a more local level. The units of spatial analysis in these cases include urban cities, neighbourhoods, slum settlements, migrant camps, colleges, markets and homes, for a broad spectrum of case types and rich empirical data.
Essential reading for social scientists including sociologists, anthropologists and scholars of other disciplines looking to understand the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic internationally and on a multi-scalar level.

Lockdown: Social Harm in the Covid-19 Era
by Daniel Briggs (Author), Luke Telford (Contributor), Anthony Lloyd (Contributor), Anthony Ellis (Contributor), Justin Kotzé (Contributor)
English | 2021 | ISBN: 303088824X | 504 Pages | PDF EPUB | 11 MB

This book asks whether the decision to lock down the world was justified in proportion to the potential harms and risks generated by the Covid-19 virus. Drawing on global, empirical data, it explores and exposes the social harms induced by lockdowns, many of which are 'hidden', including joblessness, mental health problems and an intensification of societal inequalities and divisions. It offers data-driven case studies on harms such as domestic violence, child abuse, the distress of being ordered to stay at home, and the numerous harms associated with the new wealth industries. It explores why some people weren't compliant with lockdown restrictions and examines the already vulnerable social groups who were disproportionally affected by lockdown including those who were locked in (care home residents), locked up (prisoners), and locked out (migrant workers, refugees). The book closes with a brief discussion on what the future might look like as we enter a post-Covid world, drawing on cutting-edge social theory.

Mechanical Ventilation Amid the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Guide for Physicians and Engineers
by Amir A. Hakimi (Editor), Thomas E. Milner (Editor), Govind R. Rajan (Editor), Brian J-F Wong (Editor)
English | 2022 | ISBN: ‎ 3030879771 | 267 pages | True PDF EPUB | 22.72 MB

The surge in COVID-19 cases leading to hospitalizations around the world quickly depleted hospital resources and reserves, forcing physicians to make extremely difficult life-or-death decisions on ventilator allocation between patients. Leaders in academia and industry have developed numerous ventilator support systems using both consumer- and industry-grade hardware to sustain life and to provide intermediate respiratory relief for hospitalized patients. This book is the first of its kind to discuss the respiratory pathophysiology underlying COVID-19, explain ventilator mechanics, provide and evaluate a repository of innovative ventilator support devices conceived amid the pandemic, and explain both hardware and software components necessary to develop an inexpensive ventilator support device. This book serves both as a historical record of the collaborative and innovative response to the anticipated ventilator shortage during the COVID-19 pandemic and as a guide for physicians, engineers, and DIY'ers interested in developing inexpensive transitory ventilator support devices.

by Ahmed Al-Harrasi, Saurabh Bhatia, Tapan Behl, Deepak Kaushik, Md. Khalid Anwer, Mohammed Muqtader Ahmed, Pritam Babu Sharma, Ajay Sharma, Md. Tanvir Kabir, Vineet Mittal
English | 2022 | ISBN: ‎ 1032008172 | 416 pages | True PDF | 29.61 MB

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has emerged as a global health threat. Unfortunately, there are very limited approved thebangutics available with established efficacy and safety profiles against SARS-CoV-2. COVID-19 vaccines aim to actively induce systemic immunization; however, the possibility or fear of side effects decreases or discourages their use. Alternative therapy via natural products, especially essential oils, could be considered safe and effective to improve health, cure ailments, and soothe your body and mind. Essential oils, which have been known for their anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, bronchodilatory, and antiviral properties, could possibly be useful for the symptomatic management of COVID-19. This book is vital in respect of designing approaches to protect humanity from further losses and harm due to SARS-CoV-2 infection.

[/b][b]Role of Essential Oils in the Management of COVID-19 offers a complete outline of the recent novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection, its biology, and associated challenges for the prevention and treatment of novel COVID-19, with a prime focus on the possible role of essential oils in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19. This book is written for everyone who needs to be thoroughly familiar with the appropriate and safe use of essential oils in COVID-19 therapy.

Image Atlas of COVID-19
by Meiyun Wang (Author), Georges El Fakhri (Author)
English | 2022 | ISBN: ‎ 0443184933 | 183 pages | True PDF EPUB | 41.65 MB

Image Atlas of COVID-19 covers this novel and emerging respiratory infectious disease. Although the gold standard for clinical diagnosis of COVID-19 remains the nucleic acid test for SARS-CoV-2, chest CT scans have been widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 as simple and fast diagnostic methods. The latter has proven crucial when faced with a large volume of symptomatic and asymptomatic patients. The imaging manifestations of COVID-19 have some specific characteristics, hence a better understanding of imaging findings is of great value for detecting lesions, evaluating lesion severity, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, and assessment of thebangutic options and prognosis.

Contains 61 confirmed cases of COVID-19, including a collection of over 400 DR, CT, PET/CT and PET/MRI scans in Henan Provincial People's Hospital (HPPH)
Organized into four chapters by clinical subtypes of COVID-19
Details a large number of clinical images, with illustrations that are intended to demonstrate imaging findings of COVID-19 to serve as a reference manual for medical staff engaged in imaging and clinical work
Ideal as a training material for academic education

Learning from COVID-19: GIS for Pandemics
by Este Geraghty (Editor), Matt Artz (Editor)
English | 2022 | ISBN: ‎ 1589487117 | 250 pages | True EPUB | 9.38 MB

Now that the health community is in a state of reflection, how do we put the lessons learned into practice?

As we step back to examine the worldwide response to the COVID-19 pandemic, now is the time to think about how to raise the bar for our response to the next public health emergency. Now is the time to revisit health preparedness strategies and plans. And now is the time to review what the health community did that worked-and how we can do that again.

Learning from COVID-19: GIS for Pandemics tells real-life stories about how spatial thinking became invaluable in both local and full-scale outbreaks during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Needing to answer the question of "where" sat at the forefront of everyone's mind, and using a geographic information system (GIS) for real-time surveillance transformed possibly overwhelming data into location intelligence that provided agencies and civic leaders with valuable insights.

Co-edited by Esri chief medical officer Dr. Este Geraghty, this book highlights best practices, key GIS capabilities, and lessons learned during the COVID-19 response that can help communities prepare for the next crisis. GIS has empowered:

Organizations to use human mobility data to estimate the adherence to social distancing guidelines

Communities to monitor their health care systems' capacity through spatially enabled surge tools

Governments to use location-allocation methods to site new resources (i.e., testing sites and augmented care sites) in ways that account for at-risk and vulnerable populations

Communities to use maps and spatial analysis to review case trends at local levels to support reopening of economies

Organizations to think spatially as they consider "back-to-the-workplace" plans that account for physical distancing and employee safety needs

Learning from COVID-19 also includes a "next steps" section that provides ideas, strategies, tools, and actions to help jump-start your own use of GIS, either as a citizen scientist or a health professional. A collection of online resources, including additional stories, videos, new ideas and concepts, and downloadable tools and content, complements this book.

Now is the time to use science and data to make informed decisions for our future, and this book shows us how we can do it.
