In the middle of the worst surge the United States has seen as of yet, with over 200000 new cases a day and over 100000 people hospitalized, how do New Yorkers feel about the pandemic?

A research team developed an algorithm review estimating not only hospital admissions, but also mortality outcomes in adults with COVID-19.

Non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) are not only effective against COVID-19, but also respiratory infections.

A research team recently focused on how the pandemic intensifies the effects felt by those already marginalized or vulnerable, as it is the intersection of biological and socioecological factors.

A recent study looked at the mental toll of living with COVID-19 in Australia, including employment and social impacts of the disease.
