Outcomes of Preterm Infants Admitted to Canadian Nicus Before and During the Sars-COV Pandemic
There were no significant differences in major morbidity or mortality rates in preterm infants between pre-pandemic and pandemic cohorts in Canadian NICUs
Impact of Covid-19 pandemic on Legionella testing and infection rates in Ontario
Legionella testing rates decreased by 8% in 2020 and 8% in 2021 and increased by 14% in 2022, which was associated with a decrease in positivity rate only in 2020, at 13%, but not in the other two years. Maintaining vigilance for Legionella testing in future pandemics may support timely diagnosis and treatment, leading to improved patient outcomes. Co-detection of Legionella with SARS-CoV-2 or seasonal respiratory viruses was rare but present dur…
Disproportionate Rates of Covid-19 Among Black Canadian Communities
Background Racialized communities, including Black Canadians, have disproportionately higher COVID-19 cases. We examined the extent to which SARS-CoV-2 infection has affected the Black Canadian community and the factors associated with the infection. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional survey in an area of Ontario (northwest Toronto/Peel Region) with a high proportion of Black residents along with 2 areas that have lower proportions of Black r…
Geographic clustering of travel-acquired infections in Ontario, Canada, 2008–2020
As the frequency of international travel increases, more individuals are at risk of travel-acquired infections (TAIs). In this ecological study of over 170,000 unique tests from Public Health Ontario’s laboratory, we reviewed all laboratory-reported cases of malaria, dengue, chikungunya, and enteric fever in Ontario, Canada between 2008–2020 to identify high-resolution geographical clusters for potential targeted pre-travel prevention. Smoothed s…
Limitations of administrative data to identify measles cases in Ontario, Canada
Local public health response to vaccine-associated measles
The public health approach to contact tracing and exclusions for vaccine-associated measles in immunocompromised patients is unclear. The rarity of secondary cases provides further evidence that the risk to the general public is likely extremely low. Although the risk appears negligible, exclusion and administration of immune globulin may be considered for susceptible, immunocompromised contacts of cases of vaccine-associated measles in immunocom…
