Background Biomedical waste (BMW) management is an important practice that has to be followed by all healthcare workers (HCW) in health centres. COVID-19 had become a global threat, and the spread of the infection had increased drastically

Effective respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccines have been developed and licensed for elderly adults and pregnant women but not yet for infants and young children. The RSV immune state of the young child, i.e., previously RSV infected or not, is

Spatial scan statistics are commonly used to detect clustering. We present a Bayesian spatial scan statistic for multinomial data. After validating our method with a simulation study, we use it to detect clusters of SARS-CoV-2 infection/immunity in

CONCLUSION: As the level of health literacy increases, the prevalence of generalized anxiety disorder caused by fear of COVID-19 decreases. Therefore, increasing awareness and health literacy about this virus, its transmission, and prevention methods
