  Neurological manifestations of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 in Wuhan, China: a retrospective case series study Olfactory neuropathy in severe acute respiratory syndrome: report of a case Long term serious olfactory loss in cold and/or flu Identification of viruses in patients with postviral olfactory dysfunction Olfactory mucosal findings and clinical course in patients with olfactory disorders following upper respiratory viral infection From the Maxillofacial Surgery Unit (L.A.V., G.D.R.), University Hospital of Sassari, Sassari, Italy; Department of Medical, Surgical and Experimental Sciences (G.D.), University of Sassari, Sassari, Italy; and the Maxillofacial Surgery Unit (G.S.), University Hospital of Naples Federico II, Naples, Italy. In the management of the health crisis, the identification of paucisymptomatic patients is emerging as a crucial factor in order to interrupt the transmission chain of the virus.

  (Merdes 2018) Collective irrationality is an endemic feature of human life that has been around since the beginning of social life, predating capitalism but the market provides some classic examples and raises questions about the ability of the market to operate efficiently or rationally in times of disaster. Christoph J. Merdes in his dissertation on collective irrationality notes: collective (ir)rationality finds application in all areas of human social life, and a better understanding of the phenomena, the underlying processes and the evaluative standards could greatly improve our ability to organize everything from markets over democratic government to cooperative scientific inquiry and the social norms of everyday life.

  How mobility habits influenced the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic: Results from the Italian case study

summary:
  Within this topic, the aim of the paper was to quantify the effect of mobility habits in the spread of the Coronavirus in Italy through a multiple linear regression model. Estimation results showed that mobility habits represent one of the variables that explains the number of COVID-19 infections jointly with the number of tests/day and some environmental variables (i.e. PM pollution and temperature).

  Our result mirrors previous results in the literature which found that critical phenomena are an intrinsic feature of mobility networks, leading to transition between isolated short-range flows and collective long range flows Indeed, the correlation among mobility, disease spreading and economic prosperity is crucial both in emergency scenarios and in ordinary times, since the different resilience of mobility networks could be both a predictor of the severity of future systemic crises and a guide to improve the economic and social impact of policies.

Obviously, international comparisons of case fatality must be interpreted with caution due to differences in the intensity of testing and, with deaths, the criteria for establishing the underlying cause.

However, on the one hand, doctors and other health workers multiplied their alarms relatively to this critical situation and to the related recommendations regarding behaviors to be followed and the hygienic conduct to be implemented; on the other hand, there were daily episodes of violation of such medical recommendations by the population, apparently only scarcely aware of the problem.

summary:
  The potential zoonotic risks associated with bats have attracted the attention of researchers, mostly after the discovery of SARS-like and MERS-like CoVs (two coronaviruses highly pathogenic for humans) in European bat species, although the zoonotic risks posed by bat viruses, likely very limited, should be assessed more properly (Kohl & Kurth, 2014) , in large structured studies. • Strains of astrovirus identified revealed a high degree of genetic diversity, not related to bat species.

Although chronological age was not the only criterium for selection, decision was certainly not based on a comprehensive geriatric assessment and therefore, it is likely that older patients and particularly geriatric patients, even with limited multimorbidity and good functional reserve, have had very limited access to ICU and mechanical ventilation.

summary:
  Granger causality was employed to investigate the causalities among COVID-19 and stock market returns, as well as between pandemic measures and several commodities. Alber [85] showed that stock market return is influenced by COVID-19 cases more than deaths, as well as by aggregate measures more than new ones.

summary:
  In this sense, the positive signs already shown by the decreasing trend slopes after a more restrictive lockdown in Italy and Spain could indicate an optimistic and encouraging forecast for those countries that in late March also announced restrictive lockdown measures for flattening the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic curve (e.g., the United Kingdom on March 23th or Ireland on March 27th). For an easy interpretation, and comparison of the effectiveness of lockdown measures between countries, a linear trend is assumed before and during the lockdown periods.

However, given the difficulties of creating 100% COVID-19 free clinics as many patients may present to a clinic in a pauci-symptomatic status, the current variation in access and knowledge about PPE use, may put at a disproportionate risk those working outside COVID-19 units.

  Information on the COVID-19 Pandemic in Daily Newspapers’ Front Pages: Case Study of Spain and Italy

summary:
  The role of social media in spreading misleading health information is not new [3] , but the COVID-19 crisis has shown the critical impact of this new information environment [4] . In this sense, media practitioners and their organizations should be in charge of delivering rigorous health information, aimed at creating awareness about people's health, to prevent diseases and encourage healthy living.

  Phylodynamic analysis and evaluation of the balance between anthropic and environmental factors affecting IBV spreading among Italian poultry farms

summary:
  The inclusion of a third deme in the model revealed the likely role of other poultry companies and rural farms (particularly concentrated in Northern Italy) as sources of strain introduction into one of the major poultry companies, whose farms are mainly located in the high densely populated poultry area of Northern Italy. The strains from different poultry companies formed two independent clusters, which suggests the effectiveness of independent production flow/chain in protecting farms from exogenous introductions.

Data accumulating from COVID-19 patients indicate that these patients might have a cytokine storm syndrome, with markedly higher levels of IFN-γ, CCL-2, CCL-3, TNF, and the aforementioned IL-6 (30-32).

summary:
  Thus, assuming that the need for public trust prompted the high levels of institutional trust manifested by participants, we propose to interpret their other responses within the broad framework of motivated reasoning (Kunda, 1990) and cognitive dissonance theory (Festinger, 1957) : as the chosen path to pursue the paramount goal of personal and public safety, trusting public authorities became in turn a necessary instrumental goal, thus coloring all other attitudes expressed by the respondents; more precisely, it prompted them to actively look for reasons to justify their (unavoidable) trust in public authorities, in order to minimize cognitive dissonance. Expectations on the impact of trust toward public institutions and among citizens are less triumphant, yet still positive: 54.4% predict an increase in institutional trust after the COVID-19 pandemic, whereas 57% make the same prediction with respect to social trust, i.e., trust among peers.
