The impact of COVID-19 on abortion access:insights from the European Union and the United Kingdom
Abstract
Government policies on abortion are a longstanding topic of heated political debates. The COVID-19 pandemic shook health systems to the core adding further to the complexity of this topic, as imposed national lockdowns and movement restrictions affected access to timely abortion for millions of women across the globe. In this paper, we examine how countries within the European Union and the United Kingdom responded to challenges brought by the COVID-19 crisis in terms of access to abortion. By combining information from various sources, we have explored different responses according to two dimensions: changes in policy and protocols, and reported difficulties in access. Our analysis shows significant differences across the observed regions and salient debates around abortion. While some countries made efforts to maintain and facilitate abortion care during the pandemic through the introduction or expansion of use of telemedicine and early medical abortion, others attempted to restrict it further. The situation was also diverse in the countries where governments did not change policies or protocols. Based on our data analysis, we provide a framework that can help policy makers improve abortion access
Un cavaliere magistrale : nuovi documenti sul soggiorno maltese di Caravaggio
Breve comunicazione che anticipa i risultati di prossima pubblicazione su Storia dell'Arte. Viene qui illustrato il frutto di una lunga ricerca condotta dall'autore nell'archivio dell'Ordine di Malta a La Valletta. Di particolare evidenza la corrispondenza del Gran Maestro Alof de Wignacourt con la Corte Pontificia Romana nell'ambito della quale emerge una particolare attenzione del cardinal Scipione Borghese nei confronti della introduzione di Caravaggio nell'Ordine di Malta nonostante la pregiudiaziale criminosa del pittore che nei desidarata dei suoi protettori deve essere resa nulla.The short notice illustrates the result of a long research conducted by the author in the archive of the Order of Malta in La Valletta (that will be edited in Storia dell’Arte). It shows, particularly, the correspondence of the Grand Master Alof de Wignacourt with the Roman Papal Court. It focus important news concerning Cardinal Scipione Borghese. The Cardinal writes to the Grandmaster about the introduction of Caravaggio in the Order of Malta despite his criminal imputations: desiderata is that the condemnation of the painter must be nullified, to accept him as a new knight
Impact of COVID-19 on multiple sclerosis topic discussion on Twitter
Abstract
Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is one of the world’s most common neurologic disorders. Social media have been proposed as a way to maintain and even increase social interaction for people with MS. The objective of this work is to identify and compare the topics on Twitter during the first wave of COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods: Data was collected using the Twitter API between 9/2/2019 and 13/5/2020. SentiStrength was used to analyze data with the day that the pandemic was declared used as a turning point. Frequency-inverse document frequency (tf-idf) was used for each unigram and calculated the gains in tf-idf value. A comparative analysis of the relevance of words and categories among the datasets was performed.
Results: The original dataset contained over 610k tweets, our final dataset had 147,963 tweets. After the 10th of march some categories gained relevance in positive tweets (“Healthcare professional”, “Chronic conditions”, “Condition burden”), while in negative tweets “Emotional aspects” became more relevant and “COVID-19” emerged as a new topic.
Conclusions: Our work provides insight on how COVID-19 has changed the online discourse of people with MS
Designing during, and for pandemics:a multidisciplinary approach
Abstract
COVID-19 pandemic may have captured our attention over the last months, but there are several pandemics currently active. Understanding the nature of a pandemic and learning how to design for, and during a pandemic is more than a contemporary need. In this workshop we will introduce the stages of a pandemic using a public health perspective, and together with the participants, we will reflect on designing for each stage and different potential stakeholders. The aim of the workshop is to explore how we design during pandemics such as COVID-19 and how these situations can influence the design of previously developed health and wellbeing related solutions, as well as our practices as designers. The objectives are to: (1) gain understanding regarding infectious outbreaks, (2) explore design opportunities and challenges during rapidly changing contexts, (3) reflect on the effect of a pandemic on the design process. The benefits of this multidisciplinary workshop are multiple, some of which are: understanding of the pandemic, familiarizing with design tools suitable for designing through pandemics, and exploration of ideas on designing for and during pandemics
The need for sustainable teleconsultation systems in the aftermath of the first COVID-19 wave
Abstract
The physical and social distancing measures that have been adopted worldwide because of COVID-19 will probably remain in place for a long time, especially for senior adults, people with chronic conditions, and other at-risk populations. Teleconsultations can be useful in ensuring that patients continue to receive clinical care while reducing physical crowding and avoiding unnecessary exposure of health care staff. Implementation processes that typically take months of planning, budgeting, pilot testing, and education were compressed into days. However, in the urgency to deal with the present crisis, we may be forgetting that the introduction of digital health is not exclusively a technological issue, but part of a complex organizational change problem. This viewpoint offers insight regarding issues that rapidly adopted teleconsultation systems may face in a post–COVID-19 world
Design-Relevant Factors Affecting the Patient Experience in Digital Health: Preliminary Results of an Umbrella Systematic Review
Since Covid-19, digital health interventions (DHIs) have been embraced as never before. The pandemic led to many new challenges, including the patient experience in digital health care delivery. In this literature study, we identified and synthesized factors that impact patient experience in digital health (dPEx), and reviewed the methods and strategies relevant to its design and implementation. We conducted an umbrella review including 15 reviews representing 543 studies. Four themes were identified that describe design-relevant factors that impact dPEx: individual context, content, technical issues, and design features. We propose a preliminary framework to explain the relationship between each factor and support user-centered design efforts. Further research is needed to identify which factors have the most impact.Applied Ergonomics and DesignHuman-Centered Desig
