The Access-To-Care Epidemic, Benjamin Mcmichael Jan 2021

The Access-To-Care Epidemic, Benjamin Mcmichael

Articles

Among the many challenges it has created, the COVID19 pandemic has exacerbated the United States' access-to-care problem. While millions of individuals have confronted this problem for years in the context of chronic disease management, mental illness, and other diseases and injuries, many Americans are facing serious access-to-care issues for the first time during the pandemic. Recognizing the acuity of this problem, states adopted temporary policies to combat it. One of the most important policy solutions has been the relaxation of state scope-of-practice laws that inhibit the ability of many healthcare providers, such as nurse practitioners, to deliver healthcare. These temporary …

AbstractAmphibian chytridiomycosis, caused by the fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), has caused the greatest known loss of biodiversity due to an infectious disease. We used Bd infection data from quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) assays of amphibian skin swabs collected across Chile during 2008–2018 to model Bd occurrence with the aim to determine bioclimatic and anthropogenic variables associated with Bd infection. Also, we used Bd presence/absence records to identify geographical Bd high-risk areas and compare Bd prevalence and infection loads between amphibian families, ecoregions, and host ecology. Data comprised 4155 Bd-specific qPCR assays from 162 locations across a latitudinal gradient of 3700 …
