When to be vaccinated? What to consider? Modelling decision-making and time preference for COVID-19 vaccine through a conjoint experiment
Vaccine. 2023 Sep 5:S0264-410X(23)01024-1. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.08.068. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHow do citizens choose COVID-19 vaccines, and when do they wish to be vaccinated? A choice-based conjoint experiment was conducted in Hong Kong to examine factors that shape citizens' preference toward COVID-19 vaccines and their time preference to be vaccinated, which is overlooked in extant literature. Results suggest people are most concerned about vaccines' efficacy and severe side-effects, and that cash incentives are not useful in enhancing vaccine appeal. The majority of respondents show low intention for imm...

A deep-SIQRV epidemic model for COVID-19 to access the impact of prevention and control measures
This article proposes an artificial intelligence(AI) based intelligent prediction model called Deep-SIQRV(Susceptible-Infected-Quarantined-Recovered-Vaccinated) to simulate the spreading of COVID-19. While many models assume that vaccination provides lifetime protection, we focus on the impact of waning immunity caused by the conversion of vaccinated individuals back to susceptible ones. Unlike existing models, which assume that all coronavirus-infected individuals have the same infection rate, the proposed model considers the various infection rates to analyze transmission laws and trends. Next, we consider the influence ...

Preparing for Future Pandemics and Public Health Emergencies: An American College of Physicians Policy Position Paper
Ann Intern Med. 2023 Jul 25. doi: 10.7326/M23-0768. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe onset of the COVID-19 pandemic revealed significant gaps in the United States' pandemic and public health emergency response system. At the federal level, government responses were undercut by a lack of centralized coordination, inadequately defined responsibilities, and an under-resourced national stockpile. Contradictory and unclear guidance throughout the early months of the pandemic, along with inconsistent funding to public health agencies, also created notable variance in state and local responses. The lack of a coordinated response...

Public opinion on COVID-19 vaccine prioritization in Bangladesh: Who gets the vaccine and whom do you leave out?
Vaccine. 2023 Jun 16:S0264-410X(23)00725-9. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.06.050. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOne of the most challenging aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic is the inability to ensure equitable distribution of vaccines to fight the pandemic. Many governments around the globe had to prioritize and perform a triage in distributing the vaccines due to the limited supply as well as a lack of financial strength to acquire a sufficient number of vaccines in time. The present study assessed the public opinion in Bangladesh regarding vaccination prioritization strategy and its associated aspects. Due to the infectiou...

Current resources about COVID-19
(Last updated 19th June 2023)IntroductionDuring lockdown I maintained a set of blogposts linking to resources about COVID.   I have not updated those for some time, and have now decided that they are no longer needed.  I have added the word " Archived " to the start of each page title, and tried to make it clear that they are no longer updated.  Of course, COVID-19 has not gone away, and has become one of the infectious diseases that is with us always.  So, I think although those older posts are no longer useful, a current list of resources might be.   So, here is a shorter...
