Journal ArticleDOI
The COVID-19 infection control arms race.
TL;DR: The detrimental effects of a maximal infection control approach and the research studies that are needed to eventually de-escalate hospitals are considered to inform more evidence-based and measured strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Case for Mandating COVID-19 Vaccines for Health Care Workers.
TL;DR: Not all health care workers have been vaccinated against COVID-19, and their reasons for not being vaccinated are multiple and varied as mentioned in this paper. But they might decide to be vaccinated if the argument for vaccination were sufficiently clear.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ventilator-Associated Events and Their Prevention.
TL;DR: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shifted the focus of safety surveillance in mechanically ventilated patients from ventilator-associated pneumonia to ventilatorsassociated events (VAEs) in 2013 as mentioned in this paper, which was designed to increase the objectivity and reproducibility of surveillance and to encourage quality-improvement programs to tackle a broader array of complications.
