Researchers from ETH Zurich, EPFL and the ISI Foundation are developing a wearable tracking system for healthcare facilities that can identify the risks of infections. Initial tests in Switzerland and Africa show its potential. 💓 brnw.ch/21wHmgO #TrackingSystem #COVID19

Our new paper is out about our perspectives on digital transformation of Public Health and huge opportunities for non-communicable diseases.

Our new study is out! It shows hybrid immunity reduces certain symptoms during SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infections. Additionally, booster doses further lower symptom frequency. Key findings in the ongoing fight against #COVID19. Access full paper here onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Had an amazing Sunday! Implemented #ChatGPT via MacOS terminal using #Homebrew & @OpenAI API. Its intelligence, understanding #GlobalFluView's importance for pandemic preparedness, blew me away! 🚀 Check globalfluview.org for real-time flu trends. #AI #PublicHealth

💥Our latest article comparing participatory surveillance (PS) and traditional surveillance (TS) data on COVID-19 infection rates in 9 Brazilian cities. PS data can be used for early detection and combined with TS data to increase accuracy in forecasting models. (1/5)

In our data, forecasting models integrating both approaches increased accuracy up to 3% relative to a 14-day forecast model based exclusively on TS data. Furthermore, we showed that PS data captured a population that significantly differed from a traditional observation. (4/5)

New paper alert 🚨 Latest result from our healthcare workers cohort in eastern CH. Booster vaccination might further reduce both the risk of Omicron breakthrough infection and the number of reported symptoms, although this benefit fades over time. journals.plos.org/plosmedici…

#Remotelearning CAUSED worse learning outcomes during the pandemic, above and beyond other direct effects of #COVID19 and longer #schoolclosures CAUSALLY magnified these effects. New paper from @glichand and @onicioneto in @NatureHumBehav 👇: socialsciences.nature.com/po…

Excited to see our paper on the impact of remote learning in Brazil during first year of pandemic!
Lichand et al. find that remote learning in São Paulo during the pandemic substantially decreased learning outcomes. Middle and high school students learned 27.5% of the in-person equivalent and dropout risk increased by 365%. @glichand @onicioneto buff.ly/3GjJ69n

Cross-sectional study found no association between reopening schools during the #COVID19 pandemic incidence or mortality in São Paulo State, Brazil, in a context where aggregate mobility was already substantial even in the absence of in-person classes. ja.ma/3HLYrQ3

Paper nosso que acabou de ser publicado na JAMA Health Forum mostrando que a reabertura das escolas não contribuiu para os casos ou mortes de COVID-19 no estado de São Paulo.

no Twitter, a pandemia trouxe dois tipos de divulgadores científicos: os que são pesquisadores, continuam publicando e sendo citados, e ainda utilizam seu tempo para comunicar a ciência por aqui (1/2)

e aqueles que de divulgadores científicos, são só divulgadores. Não tem rotina na ciência, reproduzem opiniões de terceiros, não aprofundam o debate, mas são experts em pegar o selinho de verificado ou ainda uma permuta de arroba, né? (2/2)
