In this paper, we approach urban belonging as place-based affect to understand how it emerges and evolves in qualitatively different ways through everyday interactions with the city. Moving beyond a narrowly defined and fixed notion of urban belonging as feeling at home in place, we examine diverging feelings about Amsterdam during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic. Confronted with the abrupt reconfiguration of everyday life, some residents felt a strong sense of contentment in relation to place, while others developed more ambivalent feelings. These ranged from anxious detachment, to disenchantment and even alienation and rejection, raising existential questions about their place in the city that reach beyond the pandemic. We demonstrate how these affective inequalities are grounded in everyday practices and evolve through social and material encounters in domestic and public space. Our findings draw attention to the processual and relational nature of urban belonging, highlighting the affective capacities of the city in everyday life. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Often considered the 'birthplace of the blues', the Mississippi Delta hosts a vibrant cultural economy based on blues music and culture. As this economy relies on embodied social experiences in place, health and safety regulations issued to combat the SARS-CoV-2 virus had dramatic effects on musicians, business owners, and other cultural workers. In this paper, we examine the impacts of the pandemic on the cultural economy of the Delta, focusing on the city of Clarksdale, a primary destination for blues tourism. Situating the Delta's cultural economy and the blues music at its foundations within a broader historical arc of racialized struggle, we explore disparities in impacts of the pandemic on differently positioned individuals and groups. We argue that, while racial inequities continue to structure the Delta's cultural economy, local communities' responses to the challenges of the pandemic also demonstrate intergroup solidarities. Approaching these solidarities through Monica White's conception of collective agency and community resilience, we conclude that collective responses to the challenges of the pandemic in the Delta illuminate the potential for people from relatively privileged and marginalized groups in the region to come together to resist oppression and potentially drive social and political economic transformations.

The Covid-19 pandemic, which began in March 2020, posed a major public health challenge due to the virulence of the Sars-Cov-2 virus and the subsequent lockdowns. Because the Sars-Cov-2 virus interacts with ACE2 receptors on the surface of cells, which are notably present in the male genital tract, concerns were raised about the impact of Covid-19 on male fertility. The presence of Sars-Cov-2 in semen is currently controversial. In fact, only four studies out of about twenty have detected its presence in the ejaculate. However, most of these studies involved a small number of men with mild symptoms of Covid-19. SARS CoV-2's impact on male fertility appears to be more common through alterations in hormonal regulation, sperm quality, and inflammation of reproductive tissues. Vaccines do not present any danger to reproductive health apart from the risks associated with a transient fever. The pandemic has been a source of anxiety and stress for couples undergoing ART (Assisted Reproductive Technology) treatment because lockdowns and recommended precautions delayed their care. Data on the impact of Sars-Cov-2 on ART outcomes are controversial. Some studies show a negative effect on ovarian function, compromising pregnancy chances, while others show no significant impact on live birth rates. The lockdowns and interruptions in ART activities had a psychological impact on couples, but the guidelines issued by scientific societies allowed for the resumption of activities with special health precautions.

Cet article rend compte des résultats d'une recherche menée conjointement par les professionnels d'une équipe de centre médico-psychologique et de sociologues. Il interroge les effets du premier confinement (printemps 2020) sur les situations des enfants suivis au CMP et leur famille, mais également sur les pratiques des soignants. L'étude a été mise en œuvre à partir de mai 2020, avec deux modalités de réflexion proposées à dix professionnels (psychologues, pédopsychiatres, orthophonistes, psychomotriciens, assistante sociale) du CMP : soit écrire un texte de quelques pages, soit participer à un entretien avec l'un des quatre sociologues. Dans les deux cas, la consigne était de partir de situations cliniques en détaillant les différents aspects sociaux et psychiques et de formuler des idées sur les effets du confinement, en s'appuyant sur des exemples cliniques tout en préservant l'anonymat des patients. Après ce premier temps d'élaboration commune, plusieurs rencontres entre soignants et sociologues ont eu lieu pour réfléchir ensemble au contenu de ces textes et élaborer une réflexion plus générale dont cet article est l'aboutissement. Cette recherche a permis de documenter l'effet de la crise sanitaire sur les enfants et les familles (renforcement des inégalités sociales) telles que perçues par les professionnels, ainsi que les adaptations des pratiques de soin (consultations à distance) et les questionnements des professionnels durant cette période. Concernant les situations des enfants et des familles, les données recueillies révèlent des inégalités sociales exacerbées par le contexte de crise sanitaire mais soulignent également l'existence de certains facteurs (type de logement, configurations familiales, rapport aux normes scolaires et sanitaires) qui ont pu créer des différences entre personnes pourtant issues de catégories socioprofessionnelles semblables. Concernant les pratiques et réflexions des professionnels, le souci de garantir la continuité du lien a été essentiel pour les professionnels, ce qui a donné lieu à des pratiques possiblement éloignées du cadre habituel, avec la limitation des rendez-vous en présence et l'usage du téléphone pour les consultations. Les professionnels se sont interrogés sur les effets et enjeux de ces suivis à distance et ont été contraints de se repositionner sur les plans clinique et thérapeutique. Cette expérience de recherche invite à renouveler ce type d'étude, pour la richesse des résultats obtenus grâce au croisement des regards des soignants et des sociologues, mais aussi pour son intérêt du point de vue de la réflexivité de l'équipe soignante. In this article, we present the results of a research project conducted jointly by professionals from a child and adolescent mental health center (CMP) and sociologists. We explore how the first confinement (in the spring of 2020) affected the situation of the child patients at the CMP and their families, as well as the care practices of the professionals. The study was implemented in May 2020. Nine mental health professionals (psychologists, child psychiatrists, speech therapists, psychomotor therapists, social worker) were invited either to write a text reflecting on their experience, or to participate in an interview with one of the four sociologists. In both cases, the suggestion was to describe clinical situations, focusing both on social and psychological aspects, and to formulate ideas on the effects of confinement based on these clinical examples, while preserving the anonymity of the patients. Following this phase, the mental health team and the sociologists met several times to collectively discuss the content of these texts and to elaborate a reflection at a more general level that resulted in this article. This research illustrates some effects of the Covid-19 crisis on children and families, notably the reinforcement of social inequalities, as witnessed by mental health care professionals. It also documents the adaptations of care practices (e.g. remote consultations) during this period, as well as the multiple questions that professionals had to address. Regarding the situations of the children and their families, the data collected reveal that social inequalities have been exacerbated by the context of the pandemic, but it also underscores how certain factors (type of housing, family configurations, individuals' relationships with academic and public health norms) may have contributed to differences between families from similar socio-professional categories. Regarding mental health care, it appears that guaranteeing the continuity of the relationship with the child and/or the family was a crucial concern for the professionals. As face-to-face appointments were limited, practices arose that were not seen as options in the usual work environment and habits, such as phone consultations. Professionals questioned the effects and stakes of these remote encounters and were forced to reposition themselves clinically and therapeutically. This research experience encourages us to renew this type of study, because of the richness of the results produced by an analysis associating professionals and sociologists, but also because of its contribution to the mental health team's capacity to reflect critically on its own practices.

Mesurer les niveaux d'impact de l'événement, de dépression, d'anxiété et de stress chez la population générale du Sénégal durant la pandémie de la COVID-19, et en déterminer les facteurs associés. Il s'agissait d'une étude descriptive transversale réalisée au moyen d'un questionnaire en ligne auto-administré. L'impact de l'événement et l'état de santé mentale de la population ont été évalués par l'échelle révisée d'impact de l'événement (IES-R) et l'échelle de stress, d'anxiété et de dépression dans sa version courte (DASS21). L'analyse statistique a été effectuée avec le logiciel Jamovi version 1.6.23. Les facteurs associés aux troubles dépistés ont été déterminés par une régression logistique en analyse univariée puis multivariée. Ont été retenues 447 réponses au questionnaire. Environ un cinquième de notre population (19 %) a signalé un impact psychologique modéré à sévère de la pandémie. Et 13,4 %, 5,1 % et 15,2 % ont reporté respectivement des niveaux modérés à extrêmement sévères de dépression, d'anxiété et de stress. Le fait de vivre à Dakar et de ne pas avoir été scolarisé a été associé à tous les troubles étudiés. D'autres facteurs associés avaient été retrouvés. Notre étude a permis de déterminer la prévalence du syndrome de stress post-traumatique, de la dépression, de l'anxiété et du stress dans la population générale du Sénégal pendant la pandémie de la COVID-19. Elle montre que la pandémie affecte effectivement la santé mentale de la population sénégalaise. Cette incidence est fortement influencée par la zone géographique et le niveau d'éducation. Assessing of Impact of Event, depression, anxiety and stress levels in the Senegalese general population during the COVID19 pandemic and identifying associated factors. Socio-demographic data, psychological impact of the pandemic, and mental health status of participants were collected using an online questionnaire administered to the general population of Senegal between April 1st and April 30th 2021. Psychological impact and mental health status were assessed, respectively, by the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R) and the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale 21 (DASS21). The data were analyzed by Jamovi software, version 1.6.23. Logistic regression in univariate and multivariate analyses were used to determine statistically significant associations with a significance level of P < 0.05. We enrolled 447 respondents with 19% reporting a moderate to severe psychological impact of the outbreak. Respectively 13.4%, 5.1% and 15.2% had moderate to extremely severe symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress. Statistically significant associations with higher odds of severe levels of psychological impact of the event, depression, anxiety, and stress were represented by five characteristics: Living in Dakar, no formal education, a personal medical chronic disease, a close family member with a chronic medical disease and poor to very poor self-reported health status. This study determined the prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, and stress in the Senegalese general population during the COVID19 pandemic. Our study assessed the prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, and stress in the general population of Senegal during the COVID pandemic19. It confirms that the pandemic has truly an impact on the mental health of the Senegalese population. This impact is strongly influenced by geographic area and level of education.

La pandémie a été l’occasion, pour beaucoup d’enseignants, de découvrir ou d’approfondir leurs connaissances et compétences en formation à distance (FAD). Qu’ils aient déjà de l’expérience ou non, il a fallu passer dans l’urgence de la présence à la distance pour s’adapter aux exigences des mesures sanitaires. Ce faisant, les représentations et opinions concernant la FAD ont pu évoluer. Alors que l’urgence dans laquelle s’est opérée le passage à la FAD pourrait avoir détériorer le point de vue des enseignants concernant ce mode de formation, quelques données recueillies lors d’un sondage tendent au contraire à révéler un accroissement de l’appréciation de celui-ci à tous les ordres d’enseignement. Cependant, les avis ne sont pas uniformes et il est possible de s’interroger sur la représentativité de l’échantillon de répondants ainsi que sur les liens entre représentations et pratiques. Cet article ne fait ainsi qu’ouvrir une discussion qui mériterait d’être poursuivi à la lumière d’autres données.

International interest has been focused on Monkeypox since July 2022, due to multiples cases reported outside Africa. We report a case that occurred in Cameroon during this period. A 40-year-old Patient, heterosexual, living in Tombel in the southwest of Cameroon, HIV positive, consulted on 02/10/2022 for umbilicated, confluent vesiculo-pustular lesions, confluent on the face and scalp with palmo-plantar involvement, without lymphadenopathy, febrile, and evolving for 2 weeks. The diagnosis of Monkeypox was made based on a positive PCR test from on a skin sample revealing the Monkeypox clade 2 virus. Under treatment, the evolution was favourable after 17 days. We report the first confirmed case of Monkeypox in the city of Douala. The major challenge for the government would be to develop diagnostic and response strategies, to contain and neutralize the disease. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Comprehensive anesthesia preparation by means of the anamnesis and physical examination is considered an essential part of the quality criteria for anesthesia. Especially due to the shortage of specialists, there are usually long waiting times in anesthesia outpatient departments and patients must frequently return in cases of missing or pending findings. Telemedicine already offers alternatives in the context of video communication. These alternatives are now particularly prominent due to the currently existing COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting recommendations for digitalization. Objectives: This comparative cross-sectional study was carried out to show via a patient survey which patient groups are suitable for a telemedical anesthesia preparation and whether the patients are already technically sufficiently equipped. Material and methods: For this purpose, a total of 2080 patients (1030 before and 1050 during the pandemic) were interviewed using a questionnaire. For matched paired analyses, 630 pairs were formed according to their age and gender. Results: Before and after the pandemic, there was an increase in the percentage of patients already using video communication in their daily lives (30.4% vs. 41.8%). Before the pandemic, 31.7% of patients indicated that they considered this concept of communication to be a practical and appropriate method for an educational conversation and after the pandemic this number increased to 46.6%. For the majority of patients personal contact with a local anesthesiologist was important (80.7% before vs. 67.4% during the pandemic). The number of patients who had the necessary technical equipment for video communication also increased as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic (50.4% vs. 58.2%). Discussion: Almost half of the patients already seem to be open to a telemedical preoperative evaluation. As digitalization progresses, older generations are more likely to recognize the benefits and be able to own and use the necessary technology in the near future. User acceptance should be the central goal of concept development. This must be followed by a randomized controlled study to evaluate the potentials but also the problems in the perioperative process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It can not be denied that the upheavals liked to the COVID 19 in language teaching have involved: «the integration of technologies to support the teaching-learning process» through the use of hybrid education Thus, with a view to developing the oral argumentative skills of learners enrolled in the 2nd year of their Bachelor’s degree in French at BMUA, for didactic engeneering -through the use of digital tools- we propose a didactic device where our participants are asked to make video clips presenting an advertisement promoting the merits of a product or service of their choice.

Der Artikel geht Rekonfigurationen des Supermarkts als zentralem (halb-)öffentlichen Bezugspunkt der Alltagspraxis im Zuge der Maßnahmen zur Eindämmung der Verbreitung des Corona-Virus im Frühjahr 2020 nach. Das Hereinbrechen der Pandemie hat öffentliche Räume nicht nur aufgrund der permanenten Konfrontation mit dem Ansteckungsrisiko mit dem Virus verändert, sondern auch affektive Ansteckungsdynamiken freigesetzt, die im Raum des Supermarktes besonderen Niederschlag fanden. Im Anschluss an die Arbeiten Gabriel Tardes untersucht der Artikel mit einer Heuristik der Ansteckung leitfadengestützte Interviews und arbeitet heraus, in welchen Weisen der Supermarkt nicht nur durch Covid-19, sondern auch durch sozial konstituierende und zirkulierende Affekte zu einem pandemischen Raum wurde. Die Atmosphäre des Supermarkts als intensivem, pandemischem Raum charakterisiert der Artikel als ‚unheimlich' und geprägt von Angespanntheit, gesteigerter sozialer Kontrolle und Gefühlen des Eingeschlossenseins. In einem Ausblick geben wir zu bedenken, dass das Ansteckungsgeschehen mit sozialen Ungleichheiten verwoben ist, was sich mit dem Konzept der affektiven Disposition weiter bestimmen ließe. The article explores reconfigurations of the supermarket as an important (semi-)public place of everyday practice following the measures taken to contain the spread of the coronavirus in spring 2020 in Germany. The onset of the pandemic has not only transformed public spaces due to permanent confrontations with the risk of infection with the virus, but initiated affective dynamics of contagion that found particular expression in the space of the supermarket. Following Gabriel Tarde, the article uses a heuristic of contagion to examine semi-structured interviews. It analyzes the ways in which the supermarket became a pandemic space not only through Covid-19, but also through socially constitutive and circulating affects. The atmosphere of the supermarket is characterized as an intense, 'uncanny' pandemic space that is defined by tension, increased social control and feelings of confinement. Processes of affective contagion – the text suggests prospectively – are also interwoven with social inequalities, which can be further analyzed with the concept of affective disposition.

Der Beitrag beschreibt das Konzept und die Genese des Hörbilds „The Sound of Libraries – ein Hörbild der Stadt Wien – Büchereien,“ das im Rahmen einer Abschlussarbeit der Autorin entstanden ist.

Im Fokus des Beitrags steht eine deskriptive Analyse der betrieblichen Weiterbildungsaktivitäten im Kalenderjahr 2020, einer Zeit, welche zum Großteil durch Lockdowns und andere Maßnahmen zur Bekämpfung der Corona-Pandemie geprägt wurde. Die Datenbasis der Untersuchung ist der CVTS6, eine alle fünf Jahre stattfindende Unternehmensbefragung im gesamten EU-Raum. Die Analyse stützt sich somit auf Informationen aus Sicht der Arbeitgeber*innen. Im Mittelpunkt der deskriptiven Analyse stehen einerseits die Weiterbildungsaktivitäten der österreichischen Betriebe im Vergleich zu anderen EU-Staaten, andererseits beleuchtet der Beitrag die Entwicklung gegenüber der Vorerhebung CVTS5, die Daten für das Jahr 2015 enthält. Die Ergebnisse zeigen: Pandemiebedingte Kontaktbeschränkungen, verringerte Geschäftstätigkeit und wirtschaftliche Unsicherheit haben die Weiterbildungsaktivitäten in Österreich im Jahr 2020 deutlich sinken lassen, und zwar stärker als in vielen anderen EU-Ländern. Österreich liegt zwar bei einigen Indikatoren noch immer im europäischen Spitzenfeld, der in den letzten Jahren feststellbare positive Aufwärtstrend scheint sich allerdings vorerst nicht fortzusetzen. Als eine positive Entwicklung führt der Autor den im Zuge des Pandemiejahres 2020 verstärkten Fokus auf die Weiterbildungsform „Selbstgesteuertes Lernen bzw. E-Learning“ an. Hier gab es in Österreich einen markanten Anstieg in der Nutzung dieser Weiterbildungsmöglichkeit, der auch deutlich über dem EU-Durchschnittswert lag. (Red.)

„Es geht um die Themen Übersterblichkeit und ihre Messung anhand vorliegender Daten. Es geht um die Effekte von Corona auf die stationäre Versorgung und um die Wirkung der eingesetzten forcierten Beatmung in der Intensivversorgung. Und es geht um Evidenz zu den Kollateralschäden und um die Langzeiteffekte des Rückgangs von Krankenhausfällen bei anderen Krankheiten während Corona.“ Mit diesen Worten gab MVF-Herausgeber Prof. Dr. Reinhold Roski das inhaltliche Themenspektrum des zweiten Teils des MVF-Kongresses „Pandemie-Impact auf die Versorgung“ vor. Roski weiter: „Wir brauchen eine Aufarbeitung und es muss ein Lernprozess einsetzen – daran wollen wir heute mitwirken, denn dazu hat die Versorgungsforschung Entscheidendes beizutragen.“

Welche der deutschen Coronamaßnahmen waren gut, welche waren schlecht? Was kann man für kommende Pandemien und auch für andere möglicherweise kommende Krisensituationen aus den Jahren 2020 bis 2022 lernen? Diese Kernfragen stellte MVF-Herausgeber Prof. Dr. Reinhold Roski zu Beginn des MVF-Kongresses „Pandemie-Impact auf die Versorgung“, dessen erster Teil online im Dezember 2023 stattfand. Nach dem Eingangsstatement von Sabine Dittmar MdB, der Parlamentarischen Staatssekretärin beim Bundesminister für Gesundheit, die über die „Corona-Auswirkungen auf die Gesundheitspolitik“ sprach, stellte Prof. Dr. Bertram Häussler, IGES-Leiter und maßgeblicher Ideengeber des Kongresses, in seinem Vortrag „Wirkungen der Corona-Pandemie – eine Übersicht“ eine etwas andere Sicht auf die politische Realität dar. Eine Sicht, die auch Prof. Dr. Matthias Schrappe, Universität zu Köln, teilte, der in seinem Vortrag „Politik: Angst statt Information?“ mit konstruktiver Kritik nicht geizte. Ziel des Kongresses von „Monitor Versorgungsforschung“ war es eben gerade nicht, Schuldzuweisungen zu betreiben, sondern zu analysieren, was vom Jahrhundertereignis Covid-19 für das deutsche Versorgungssystem nicht nur gelernt werden kann, sondern für künftige Krisen gleicher oder ganz anderer Art gelernt werden muss.

Cet article présente les résultats d’une étude faite sur la terminologie relative à la covid 19 en quatre langues : anglais, français, allemand, roumain. Le but est de voir comment les termes relatifs à cette crise sanitaire ont circulé de la langue source, langue officielle de communication, c’est à dire l’anglais vers les autres langues et la capacité de celles ci d’assimiler les nouvelles unités termiologiques.

L’objectif de cette étude était d’évaluer la perception que les étudiants de l’Université de Kinshasa ont de la pandémie à coronavirus. Pour ce faire, un questionnaire d’enquête a été administré à un échantillon de 369 étudiants finalistes de l’Université de Kinshasa inscrits pour l’année académique 2019-2020. Les résultats obtenus attestent le primat des connaissances objectives de la Covid-19, de ses causes, de ses conséquences et de ses mesures sur les croyances et connaissances populaires.

Die Corona-Pandemie war ein enormer Stresstest auch für das Recht, insbesondere die Grundrechte. Die zur Bekämpfung der Pandemie staatlicherseits erlassenen Maßnahmen stellten zum Teil gravierende, in der Geschichte des Grundgesetzes bisher nicht dagewesene Beschränkungen der Freiheit und des sozialen Lebens dar. Das Verbot etwa, sterbenden Angehörigen im Krankenhaus oder im Pflegeheim einen letzten Besuch abzustatten, berührte unmittelbar die Würde der beteiligten Menschen. Kontakt- und Ausgangsbeschränkungen, Schulschließungen sowie die nahezu vollständige Stilllegung des sozialen Lebens griffen massiv in die Grundrechte der Menschen ein. Die vom Bundesverfassungsgericht bestätigte Impfpflicht für Beschäftigte in Gesundheitsberufen bedeutete einen schwerwiegenden Eingriff in das Recht auf körperliche Selbstbestimmung. Ist der Staat zu weit gegangen? Eine Antwort darauf muss differenziert ausfallen.
