COVID-19 Risk by Workers' Occupation and Industry in the United States, 2020 ‒2021
Conclusions. Workers in several industries and occupations with public-facing roles and adults in households with multiple workers had elevated risk of COVID-19. Public Health Implications. Stronger workplace protections, paid sick leave, and better health care access might mitigate working families' risks from this and future pandemics. (Am J Public Health.

Variation in End-of-Life Trajectories in Persons Aged 70 Years and Older, Sweden, 2018 ‒2020
Conclusions. Most deaths today do not comply with what is often referred to as a "good" death (e.g., retaining control or requiring low levels of elder care). The results suggest that longer lifespans partly result from a prolonged dying process. Public Health Implications. The current modes of dying call for a discussion about how we want to die in an era of increasing lifespans and aging societies. (Am J Public Health.

Rural-Urban Differences in Vaccination and Hesitancy Rates and Trust: US COVID-19 Trends and Impact Survey on a Social Media Platform, May 2021-April 2022
Conclusions. Rural-urban difference in hesitancy rates among those still unvaccinated was much smaller than the rural-urban difference in vaccination rates, suggesting that access to vaccines may be another contributor to the lower vaccination rates in rural areas.

Excess Injury Mortality in Washington State During the 2021 Heat Wave
Conclusions. The 2021 Pacific Northwest heat wave was associated with an increase in injury deaths. Public Health Implications. Under global warming scenarios, heat waves of this magnitude will become much more common. Adaptation and planning efforts are needed to protect residents of the historically temperate Pacific Northwest for a range of health outcomes. (Am J Public Health.

The Chelsea Project: Turning Research and Wastewater Surveillance on COVID-19 Into Health Equity Action, Massachusetts, 2020-2021
Am J Public Health. 2023 Apr 6:e1-e4. doi: 10.2105/AJPH.2023.307253. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTChelsea, Massachusetts, had one of the highest COVID-19 transmission rates in New England in the summer of 2020. The Chelsea Project was a collaborative effort in which government entities, local nonprofit organizations, and startups partnered to deploy wastewater analysis, targeted polymerase chain reaction testing and vaccine outreach, and a community-led communications strategy. The strategy helped increase both testing rates and vaccination rates in Chelsea. Today Chelsea has one of the highest vaccination rates among US ...

Decreasing Survey Response Rates in the Time of COVID-19: Implications for Analyses of Population Health and Health Inequities
Conclusions. Socially patterned decreases in response rates pose serious challenges and must be addressed explicitly in all studies relying on data obtained since the onset of the pandemic. Public Health Implications. Artifactual reduction of estimates of the magnitude of health inequities attributable to differential response rates could adversely affect efforts to reduce these inequities. (Am J Public Health.
