Cohen NJ , Callahan DB , Gonzalez V , Balaban V , Wang RT , Pordell P , Beato R , Oyervides O , Huang WT , Massoudi MS . Emerg Infect Dis 2011 17 (9) 1756-7 TO THE EDITOR: In response to the emergence of pandemic (H1N1) 2009 virus (1), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued interim guidance for preventing spread of the pandemic virus in schools. Initial guidance recommended that dismissal of students be considered for schools with confirmed cases of pandemic (H1N1) 2009 infection. The guidance was subsequently revised to recommend monitoring for respiratory illness and exclusion of ill students until they were noninfectious, rather than dismissal. |

Jarquin VG , Callahan DB , Cohen NJ , Balaban V , Wang R , Beato R , Pordell P , Oyervides O , Huang WT , Lipman H , Fishbein D , Massoudi MS . Emerg Infect Dis 2011 17 (4) 751-3 TO THE EDITOR: On April 28, 2009, the Chicago Department of Public Health received notification of 1 student at an elementary school with a probable pandemic (H1N1) 2009 virus infection; the infection was subsequently laboratory confirmed. This case was one of the first pandemic (H1N1) 2009 cases in Chicago. To prevent transmission of influenza and with guidance from the Chicago Department of Public Health, the school closed on April 29; it reopened on May 6 after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) revised its recommendations (1). We conducted an investigation to evaluate psychosocial and economic effects of the school closure on the students' families and to assess whether students complied with mitigation recommendations. In the early pandemic, Chicago's number of pandemic (H1N1) 2009 cases was one of the highest in the United States (2). |
Communication as an essential component of environmental health science
Beato RR , Telfer J . J Environ Health 2010 73 (1) 24-25 The science of health communication | is becoming as central to the field of | environmental health as the science of | epidemiology. Within the 21st century, such | events as Hurricane Katrina, H1N1 influenza, | and concerns about chemical exposure in imported drywall have demonstrated the value | of communication as a means of protecting public health. When such events occur, health | professionals must seek disease control interventions but also address audiences’ information needs. Health communication science is | an essential underpinning for such activities. |
