Mortality Risk Among Patients Hospitalized Primarily for COVID-19 During the Omicron and Delta Variant Pandemic Periods - United States, April 2020-June 2022
MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep. 2022 Sep 16;71(37):1182-1189. doi: 10.15585/mmwr.mm7137a4.ABSTRACTThe risk for COVID-19-associated mortality increases with age, disability, and underlying medical conditions (1). Early in the emergence of the Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, mortality among hospitalized COVID-19 patients was lower than that during previous pandemic peaks (2-5), and some health authorities reported that a substantial proportion of COVID-19 hospitalizations were not primarily for COVID-19-related illness,* which might account for the lower mortality among hospitalized patients. Using ...

Examining the development and utilization of infection control policies to safely support adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities in congregate living settings during COVID-19
CONCLUSION: Agencies experienced difficulties developing and implementing infection control policies, impacting the clients they serve and their families and staff. Public health guidance should be tailored to each congregate living setting rather than generally applied.PMID:36068435 | PMC:PMC9447963 | DOI:10.17269/s41997-022-00674-0

Refractory status epilepticus with fever due to mumps vaccine-induced encephalitis caused secondary encephalopathy mimicking acute encephalopathy with biphasic seizures and late reduced diffusion
We present the clinical course of a 1-year and 10-month-old boy who had no preexisting condition, and developed mumps vaccine-induced severe primary encephalitis. Refractory status epilepticus due to encephalitis persisted for 16 h and resulted in secondary encephalopathy as a form of AESD mimic. He had serious neurological sequelae, such as West syndrome, transient spastic tetraplegia, and intellectual disability, despite intensive treatments.DISCUSSION: The presented boy is the first patient to develop mumps vaccine-induced primary encephalitis with severe central nervous system (CNS) damage. Screening of the immunologic...

Summary of Guidance for Minimizing the Impact of COVID-19 on Individual Persons, Communities, and Health Care Systems - United States, August 2022
MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep. 2022 Aug 19;71(33):1057-1064. doi: 10.15585/mmwr.mm7133e1.ABSTRACTAs SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, continues to circulate globally, high levels of vaccine- and infection-induced immunity and the availability of effective treatments and prevention tools have substantially reduced the risk for medically significant COVID-19 illness (severe acute illness and post-COVID-19 conditions) and associated hospitalization and death (1). These circumstances now allow public health efforts to minimize the individual and societal health impacts of COVID-19 by focusing on sustainable measures to f...
