     summary: Another important factor resulting in increasing numbers of TB cases is the increase in transmission of multidrugresistant (MDR) strains of TB (Table 1 ). The communicable diseases for which federal isolation and quarantine are authorized by presidential order are infectious TB, cholera, diphtheria, plague, smallpox, yellow fever, viral hemorrhagic fevers, SARS, and influenza with pandemic potential.

     summary: And yet the EHR was not the savior of primary care, 3 but instead, for all of its benefits, its burdens fell disproportionately to primary care physicians. Inequity in payment for cognitive versus procedural care 2 ; conflating how primary care has been valued with its value; equating the payment allocated for primary care services with the difficulty in their mastery (contributing to the assumption that lesser training is of little consequence in primary care); and a shrinking scope of practice for physicians within the specialty are among the reasons our health system has not benefitted fully from what a well-supported, well-organized model of primary care has to offer.

Whereas uncontrolled studies of treated cohorts in Asia have suggested that using moderate doses of corticosteroids, 1 to 2 mg/kg of a prednisone-equivalent daily, at the first evidence of severe SARS, specifically hypoxemia, may improve survival, 59,61,62 corticosteroid therapy for SARS has had serious adverse effects, 63 and a single randomized trial of preemptive pulse corticosteroid therapy did not show benefit.

     summary: For contact tracing, we assumed an advanced, automated contact tracing (AACT) application that sends alerts to individuals advising self-isolation based on individual exposure profile. Contact tracing is routinely used for controlling infectious diseases.

     summary: Although thrombotic and thromboembolic events are emerging clinical complications of COVID-19 11, 12, 20 , our data demonstrate a low rate (<1%) of these events within the first seven days after COVID-19 convalescent plasma transfusion. Patients and Methods From April 3 to June 2, 2020, the US FDA Expanded Access Program for COVID-19 convalescent plasma transfused a convenience sample of 20,000 hospitalized patients with COVID-19 convalescent plasma.

     summary: In general, we agree that repeat testing may be helpful in certain situations of ongoing high suspicion for active infection where alternative approaches are not feasible; however, we believe that testing should not be applied indiscriminately in a resource-constrained situation. key: cord-322724-7l1668bf authors: Challener, Douglas; Shah, Aditya; O'Horo, John C.; Berbari, Elie F.; Binnicker, Matthew J.; Tande, Aaron title: In Reply - Repeated testing in SARS-CoV-2 infection date: 2020-08-10 journal: Mayo Clin Proc DOI: 10.1016/j.mayocp.2020.08.006 sha: doc_id: 322724 cord_uid: 7l1668bf nan To The Editor: We appreciate the points raised by Lippi et al regarding our article describing repeat testing for SARS-CoV-2 infection.

     summary: As supply chain management leaders at Mayo Clinic, we appreciate the attention these authors draw towards the issue of drug shortages and drug costs. One of the interesting observations we have made from the supply chain perspective while navigating the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is that the impacts on drug cost from COVID-19 have been minimal in the retail segment and are more significant in the hospital sector.

      flesch: 38
     summary: Despite being arguably the lowest quality of scientific proof, there are several reasons to believe that anecdotal evidence, in particular, may be accorded more credence than such evidence truly merits. The term flexibilization here refers to a loosening of methodological standards and the development of low-quality studies, leading to the creation of unreliable data and, later in the cycle, of anecdotal evidence.

     summary: Despite a case series from China which reported extremely high AngII in patients with COVID-19, 8 in our cohort of 30 COVID-19 patients, circulating AngII were normal regardless of COVID-19 severity, with no significant differences between COVID-19 patients and healthy controls. Only retrospective observational studies regarding the potentially deleterious effects of ACEIs/ARBs in COVID-19 patients have been conducted to-date, and these findings need to be confirmed in prospective randomized controlled trials (RCT).

     summary: In the ensuing weeks, health care organizations, industry partners, and government agencies worldwide have quickly come together to address pandemic challenges such as scaling high-quality laboratory tests, conducting treatment research, and enabling virtual health care in a time of social distancing. 2 To stem pandemic-related deaths and prevent health care systems from being overwhelmed with sick patients, governments responded by limiting travel, closing schools, issuing stay-at-home orders, making emergency investments in health care, scaling testing, and using data and technology to trace contacts.

     summary: Perniosis, also known as chilblains, is a cold-induced inflammatory disorder commonly affecting acral sites and is frequently accompanied by a sensation of itching, burning, or pain. Affected patients develop vasoconstriction in acral sites instead of the protective vasodilatory response.

     summary: Four months into the pandemic, there are models of possible trajectories of the disease but there are still no clear, national recommendations to guide practice that could reduce the spread of infection in hospitals facing limited availability of personal protective equipment (PPE) including surgical masks and N95 masks. The CDC recently followed suit, recommending that the general public wear makeshift masks in public areas where social distancing is difficult.

If getting into medical school is a dance, it is as if we have been perfecting our plies and jetes for the ballet recital for years, only to be told just before the performance that we will be expected to show off our jazz and hip-hop moves instead.

     summary: TMPRSS2 expression was also detected in gastrointestinal tissues, including stomach, colon (transverse), pancreas, small intestine (terminal ileum), minor salivary gland, esophagus (mucosa), liver and colon (sigmoid) ( Figure 1B ). Targeting TMPRSS2 protease activity through protease inhibitors or indirectly through ADT will require additional studies to determine the role of rs75603675 and rs12329760 on TMPRSS2 expression, protease activity and in response to protease inhibition.

A number of studies have shown group based treatment by videoconference, both support groups and treatment groups, including those targeting tobacco, alcohol and opioid use disorders have been shown to provide safe intervention, high patient satisfaction and appear to have similar outcomes to in person treatments.
