Comparing COVID-19 policies: an analysis of COVID-19 response in Qatar and the United Arab Emirates
Get PDFThe novel coronavirus, COVID-19, first appeared in early 2020 and has since been able to spread rapidly across the globe. The rapid government response to the growing public health crisis created a unique opportunity to analyze and compare the COVID-19 related public health policies as enacted by various nations. Having dealt with the impact of MERS and SARS prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Middle East provides a distinct perspective into the question of whether prior exposure to public health crises prepared governments in the region to respond to COVID-19. Utilizing news sources reporting on public health policies in the region, as well as public health data as reported by the World Health Organization and the Coronavirus resource center: COVID-19 dashboard by the Center for Systems Science and Engineering at Johns Hopkins University, I compare policies and subsequent health outcomes in Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Were prior public health crises advantageous to countries within the Middle East in terms of their ability to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic? Based on regional evidence of national and subnational public health policy responses taking place during the period of COVID-19 pandemic onset, which can be defined as winter to spring of 2020, in addition to regional morbidity and mortality rate, this paper concludes that the data suggests otherwise. The COVID-19 pandemic emphasized the importance of political actors having the capacity to offer effective public health policy responses, thus this paper offers a theoretical framework for why Qatar and the United Arab Emirates, despite their unique advantages, were equally unable to significantly lessen the number of confirmed cases and reported deaths due to COVID-19

Hygrocybe flavescens
Get PDFFound growing near conifers on or around hardwood and humus. Can be found growing scattered or in clusters on both coasts of the continental United States. Fruits between the months of July and November. Yellow colored cap with a diameter of 2-7 cm. Convex in shape while young and flattens out as it matures. The cap is viscous and is sticky to the touch. Beneath the cap are pale-yellow gills that are broadly attached to the stem and are fairly close together. The stem reaches up to 10 cm in height and shares a similar color to the cap; white near the base. Can be confused with H. chlorophana, as they have a very similar appearance. The stem of H. flavescens is sticky as compared to H. chlorophana. ID number: 18.21.02.2021https://orb.binghamton.edu/macrofungi_eastbrookvalley/1042/thumbnail.jp
