Toolkit for People with Disabilities
CDC, April 2021

Guidance and tools to help people with disabilities and those who serve or care for them make decisions, protect their health, and communicate with their communities.

Modeling vaccination rollouts, SARS-CoV-2 variants and the requirement for non-pharmaceutical interventions in Italy
G Giordano et al, Nature Medicine, April 16, 2021

Based on the Italian case study, we outline several scenarios: mass vaccination campaigns with different paces, different transmission rates due to new variants and different enforced countermeasures, including the alternation of opening and closure phases. Our results demonstrate that non-pharmaceutical interventions have a higher effect on the epidemic evolution than vaccination alone, advocating for the need to keep NPIs in place during the first phase of vaccination.

Spike Antibody Levels of Nursing Home Residents With or Without Prior COVID-19 3 Weeks After a Single BNT162b2 Vaccine Dose
H Blain et al, JAMA< April 15, 2021

This preliminary study suggests that a single dose of BNT162b2 vaccine may be sufficient to obtain a high level of S-protein IgG antibody in nursing home residents previously diagnosed with COVID-19 based on RT-PCR results.

Ten scientific reasons in support of airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2
T Greenhalgh et al, The Lancet, April 15, 2021

We propose that it is a scientific error to use lack of direct evidence of SARS-CoV-2 in some air samples to cast doubt on airborne transmission while overlooking the quality and strength of the overall evidence base. There is consistent, strong evidence that SARS-CoV-2 spreads by airborne transmission. Although other routes can contribute, we believe that the airborne route is likely to be dominant.

About COVID-19 GPH

COVID-19 GPH is an online, continuously updated, searchable database of published scientific literature, CDC and NIH resources, and other materials that captures emerging discoveries and applications of genomics, molecular and other precision medicine and precision public health tools in the investigation and control of COVID-19. Contents include PubMed records via an automated pubmed search algorithm, preprint records from NIH iCite, the relevant information from many media sources picked by experts, and linkages to contents from our curated PHGKB databases.

Genomics Precision Health (GPH): The use of pathogen and human genomics and advanced molecular detection methods in discovery, clinical and public health investigations involving COVID-19.
Non Genomics Precision Health (non-GPH): The use of big data, data science and machine learning methods (not involving genomics) in discovery, clinical and public health investigations involving COVID-19

Following categories are annotated by LitCovid from NCBI NIH.
MechanismUnderlying cause(s) of covid-19 infections and transmission & possible drug mechanism of action
Transmission Characteristics and modes of covid-19 transmissions, such as human-to-human
DiagnosisDisease assessment through symptoms, test results, and radiological features
PreventionPrevention, control, response and management strategies
Case ReportDescriptions of specific patient cases
