How Do They Hack Hospitals? – Cyberthreats In The Digital Health Era
Discussion about cyberthreats is and will increasingly be crucial in the medical field so as to better address and prevent them. This issue is particularly concerning as the world is increasingly turning to digital solutions to access healthcare while we must limit physical visits. However, these discussions should not revolve only around strengthening the IT infrastructure with anti-malwares. This won’t cut it as, in addition to the technological component, there’s very much a social component in hacking into healthcare facilities. Let’s decrypt how this is the case; and consider additional measures that all of u...

How creative solutions to inequitable COVID-19 vaccine distribution can save lives now
The current COVID-19 vaccines have been developed with unprecedented efficiency and speed. Years of research, development, production, and regulatory approvals have been compressed into months. But accelerating the science is only half the puzzle. If we want to save lives right now, we need to improve the messy, inequitable implementation process of COVID-19 vaccine distribution.Read more …Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com.

Exponential growth is terrifying
This example illustrates just how fast exponential growth is. It was proposed on twitter by Charles Arthur (@charlesarthur) who attributes the idea to Simon Moores. Here’s Wembley Stadium. The watering system develops a fault: in minute 1 one drop of water is released; minute 2, two drops, minute 3 four drops, and so on. Every minute the number of drops doubles. How long will it take to fill Wembley stadium? The answer is that after 44 minutes, before half-time, the stadium would overflow. Here’s why. The sequence is 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, . . . so the nth term in the sequence is 2n – 1. For example, the 4th te...

Regulations Stymie COVID-19 Innovation
Jeffrey Miron andErin PartinAmid a nationwide ventilatorshortage, hospitals are facing increasing pressure to makedifficult decisions. In preparation for such a shortage one doctor at theUniversity of Mississippi Medical Center, Charles Robinson, had an idea to build the “absolute simplest, cheapest functioning ventilator from widely available parts.”“The Robertson Ventilators are made from garden hose sections, adapters, valves, a solenoid and a lamp timer, all of which can be bought at a hardware store or online. The parts cost less than 100 dollars per ventilator and can be assembled in le...

The Moral Threat of Authoritarian Responses to COVID-19
by Charles E. Binkley, MD COVID-19 presents a moral crisis of epic proportion. One ethical quagmire after another has emerged. Clinicians are asking how to decide which of two or more equally deserving patients gets the only available ventilator. They are also raising well founded concerns about the lack of available personal protective equipment (PPE) necessary for them to do their jobs safely. The captain of a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier sacrificed his position by publicizing the threat on his ship in an attempt to save the men and women on board.…

Research Provides No Basis for Pandemic Travel Bans
CONCLUSIONThe pre ‐COVID‐19 research is unanimous that governments cannot expect to rely on travel restrictions to prevent the spread of pandemics similar to influenza. Travel restrictions do not prevent the spread of disease and may only delay it for a few days or weeks if implemented prior to the interna tional transmission of the disease. The Trump administration’s travel restrictions waited until after the virus had already entered the United States, and they exempted many travelers from China, not to mention the rest of the world.[30]The research shows that the Trump administration should have known that ...

Who Will Reopen the Economy —the President, the Governors, or the People?
David BoazResponding to President Trump ’s claim on Monday that he had “total authority” to decide when to “open up the states” and the economy, Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinsonwrote:Trump is not the one who decided to shut everything down: He never issued a nationwide stay‐at‐home order. We are sequestered and socially distanced because ourgovernors and mayors told us we needed to be.But that ’s not really true. We’re mostly staying home because we decided to — we as individuals, and businesses, and civil society. Consider this timeline of decisions:March 6 — SXSW canceledMarch 10 �...
