  • Continuing to be cautious

    Open AccessTomoka Nakamura, Ryo Kinoshita et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Despite implementing no lockdowns and having a large elderly population, Japan had a low mortality rate due to COVID-19 compared to Europe and North America. The extent to which policies impacted person-to-person contact remains unclear. In this study, we examined changes in contact patterns and their association with behaviors and governmental recommendations in Japan during the pandemic. Ten social contact surveys were conducted between 2021 an…

  • Vidas foragidas

    Open AccessAkira EndoARTICLETempo Social2025

    O artigo tem como objetivo descrever a natureza de deslocamentos pela cidade produzidos pelo evento-prisão ou por sua ameaça, a fim de evidenciar um modo pelo qual o encarceramento interfere nos modos de vida de pessoas que passaram pelo cárcere, bem como conforma circuitos entre o legal e o ilegal no perímetro urbano. Nas microcenas etnográficas aqui apresentadas, as distintas configurações do que chamo de 'fugas prisionais' se apresentam como r…

  • Tramas da vida e maquinaria punitiva

    Open AccessVera Da Silva Telles, Ada Rízia Barbosa De Carvalho et al.ARTICLETeoria e Cultura2024

    Este artigo trata dos percursos de homens e mulheres que passaram pela prisão e que têm suas vidas afetadas por dispositivos de controle nos meandros da expansiva informalidade urbana. Vidas enredadas nas malhas da justiça criminal, esses percursos permitem entender os modos operatórios da gestão dos ilegalismos populares. E também iluminam aspectos pouco ou nada trabalhados nas pesquisas sobre os efeitos societários do encarceramento em massa. T…

  • The impact of Covid-19 vaccination in prisons in England and Wales

    Open AccessCiara V McCarthy, Oscar O’Mara et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    The impact of vaccination in prison settings was highly dependent on early and rapid vaccine delivery. If administered to both those living and working in prison prior to an outbreak occurring, vaccines could substantially reduce COVID-19-related morbidity and mortality in prison settings

  • The local burden of disease during the first wave of the Covid-19 epidemic in England

    Open AccessEmily Nightingale, Emily S Nightingale et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    Limitations in testing capacity biased the observed trajectory of COVID-19 infections throughout the first wave. Basing inference on COVID-19-related mortality and higher-coverage testing later in the time period, we could explore the extent of this bias more explicitly. Evidence points towards substantial under-representation of initial growth and peak magnitude of infections nationally, to which different parts of the country contribute unequal…

  • Global, regional, and national estimates of the population at increased risk of severe Covid-19 due to underlying health conditions in 2020

    Open AccessAndrew Clark, Mark Jit et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet Global Health2020

    BACKGROUND: The risk of severe COVID-19 if an individual becomes infected is known to be higher in older individuals and those with underlying health conditions. Understanding the number of individuals at increased risk of severe COVID-19 and how this varies between countries should inform the design of possible strategies to shield or vaccinate those at highest risk. METHODS: We estimated the number of individuals at increased risk of severe dis…

  • Effects of non-pharmaceutical interventions on Covid-19 cases, deaths, and demand for hospital services in the UK

    Open AccessNicholas G Davies, Adam J Kucharski et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet Public Health2020

    Background Non-pharmaceutical interventions have been implemented to reduce transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in the UK. Projecting the size of an unmitigated epidemic and the potential effect of different control measures has been crucial to support evidence-based policy making during the early stages of the epidemic. This study assesses the potential impact of different control measures for mitigating …

  • Effectiveness of isolation, testing, contact tracing, and physical distancing on reducing transmission of Sars-CoV-2 in different settings

    Open AccessAdam J Kucharski, Petra Klepac et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet Infectious Diseases2020

    BACKGROUND: The isolation of symptomatic cases and tracing of contacts has been used as an early COVID-19 containment measure in many countries, with additional physical distancing measures also introduced as outbreaks have grown. To maintain control of infection while also reducing disruption to populations, there is a need to understand what combination of measures-including novel digital tracing approaches and less intensive physical distancin…

  • Ecological factors affecting body size of Japanese adolescents

    Open AccessAkira Endo, Katsuhiko Omoe et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Physical…1993Citada por: 2Referencias: 5

    Prefectural data of 17‐year‐old Japanese adolescents' body size were excerpted from the annual series of Reports on School Health Statistics (Ministry of Education) for the last 35 years, and were correlated with the mean annual temperature of prefectural capitals. A negative correlation was found for both height and weight. Thus, it can be stated that children in colder climates conform to Bergmann's rule that they are larger in their height and…
