BACKGROUND The 2019 coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has led to increase in global awareness of related public health preventive measures. The public awareness can be reflected by online searching trends of major search engines, namely Google Trends. OBJECTIVE This study aims to interpret online searches of COVID-19 related public health preventive measures and to identify possible correlations between early search trends and progression of the pandemic. METHODS Search data from five queries “Mask”, “Hand Washing”, “Social Distancing”, “Hand Sanitizer”, and “Disinfectant” were extracted from Google Trends (GT) in the form of Relative Search Volumes (RSV). Global incidence data of COVID-19 was obtained from January 1st to June 30th 2020. Subsequently, the data were analyzed and illustrated in forms of a global temporal RSV trend diagram, a geographical RSV distribution chart, scatter graphs comparing regional RSV with average daily cases; and heat-maps comparing temporal trend of RSV with average daily cases. RESULTS Global temporal trend revealed multiple surges in RSV, which were temporally associated with certain COVID news events. Geographical distribution showed differences of query interests among regions. Although scatter graphs failed to illustrate strong correlations between regional RSV and average daily cases, the heat-maps were able to demonstrate patterns of early RSV peaks in countries with lower average daily cases, for queries “Mask”, “Hand Sanitizer”, and “Disinfectant”, upon incorporating with the temporal element into analysis. CONCLUSIONS Early public awareness of multiple preventive measures was observed in countries with lower daily average cases. Public health authorities may look into early public awareness as an effective measure for future disease control.

Kebutuhan akan etanol (alkohol) dalam pembuatan cairan pencuci tangan (Hand Sanitizer) terus meningkat seirig wabah Virus Corona (Covid-19) yang belum juga mereda. Permintaan sangat tinggi sedangkan stok terbatas yang membuat masyarakat kesulitan untuk menemukan walaupun dipasaran ada tapi harganya cukup mahal, sehingga diperlukan bahan baku etanol alternatif yang dapat digunakan dan tersedia disekitar kita. Salah satu produk diversifikasi yang dapat dikembangkan adalah pohon aren yang menghasilkan etanol (alkohol) dari proses fermentasi (alami maupun buatan dengan tambahan ragi) dan destilasi. Metode yang digunakan dalam kegiatan pengabdian adalah ceramah/penyuluhan (koordinasi, sosialisasi dan penyadaran), praktik/pelatihan yang dilanjutkan dengan penerapan teknologi dan pendampingan tentang teknologi pengolahan nira aren secara terkendali menjadi Alkohol teknis dengan konsentrasi tinggi dan pembuatan Hand Sanitizer. Hasil Penyuluhan; yang telah dilaksanakan, di dapatkan data tentang 22 anggota mitra petani aren didominasi  laki-laki 90,91%, dengan tingkat pendidikan tertinggi SMP 36,36%, umur petani produktif antara 40 – 60 tahun sebesar 54,55%, lahan yang digunaan sebagai usaha adalah lahan milik sendiri dan kondisi tanaman dipelihara dengan baik 45,45%, produk yang dihasilkan 54,55% adalah gula merah dan 22,73% adalah produk Cap tikus/nira aren. Pada Praktik/Pelatihan; dilakukan pembuatan etanol/alkohol dari nira aren secara konvensional dengan kadar alkohol ≤25% (minuman cap tikus) sebanyak 20 Liter, kemudian dilakukan redestilasi untuk mendapatkan etanol teknis dengan kadar etanol di atas 80% sebanyak 9 Liter, lalu dibuat Hand Sanitizer bentuk Spray dan Gel sebanyak 100 botol. Proses Pendampingan; memberikan pengetahuan tentang teknik pemamfaatan nira aren untuk menghasilkan alkohol yang berkadar tinggi dengan teknik metode destilasi yang benar serta tingkat kebersihan produk untuk menjaga kualitasnya

Value Of It

This chapter introduces the topic of retailing in the Roman world and outlines some of the important developments in its study. It establishes why the focus of the book zooms in from retailing in general to the retailing of food and drink in particular; thus from shops to bars. Another aim is to demonstrate the scope of the study, which is an in-depth analysis of specific shops and bars at Pompeii on the one hand, and on the other a broader survey of the retail landscapes of cities throughout the Roman world. Essentially this chapter provides the theoretical and methodological framework for the book, while also arguing for the value of it in the first place.

The University

Tabernae were ubiquitous among all Roman cities, lining the busiest streets and dominating their most crowded intersections, and in numbers not known by any other form of building. That they played a vital role in the operation of the city—indeed in the very definition of urbanization—is a point too often under-appreciated in Roman studies, or at best assumed. The Roman Retail Revolution is a thorough investigation into the social and economic worlds of the Roman shop. With a focus on food and drink outlets, and with a critical analysis of both archaeological material and textual sources, Ellis challenges many of the conventional ideas about the place of retailing in the Roman city. A new framework is forwarded, for example, to understand the motivations behind urban investment in tabernae. Their historical development is also unraveled to identify three major waves—or, revolutions—in the shaping of retail landscapes. Two new bodies of evidence underpin the volume. The first is generated from the University of Cincinnati’s recent archaeological excavations into a Pompeian neighborhood of close to twenty shop-fronts. The second comes from a field survey of the retail landscapes of more than a hundred cities from across the Roman world. The richness of this information, combined with an interdisciplinary approach to the lives of the Roman sub-elite, results in a refreshingly original look at the history of retailing and urbanism in the Roman world.

Real Challenge

AbstractAlsace, in particular Haut-Rhin, is one of the main clusters of COVID-19 in France. There has been a shortage of essential supplies in the area, especially alcohol-based hand sanitizer. In this context, and in accordance with the decree dated March 6, 2020, our hospital management team asked us to start local production of alcohol-based handrub. This was a real challenge: In one week, we had to implement the production of handrub to meet the needs of a 1,400-bed hospital. The production had to comply with the French preparation guidelines and take place on specific premises, with qualified and calibrated equipment, by qualified staff, under the supervision of a pharmacist. The other big challenge we faced was the supply of pharmaceutical raw and packaging materials. During this particular critical period, all suppliers were out of stock. Here, we describe the organizational set-up and the decisions made, e. g., to use technical-grade ethanol before the publication of the decrees dated March 13 and March 23, 2020.

The One

The growing number of children who are obese or overweight in certain countries or geographical areas is a fact, as evidenced by the continuous studies and reports on the subject, endorsed or carried out by the World Health Organisation and independent research. In this context, food and beverage advertising can contribute to this. The main objective of this research is to evaluate compliance with the Food and Drink Advertising Code for Children (PAOS Code) in Spain and its relationship with nutritional habits on television, specifically on channels aimed at children. The methodology is therefore mixed: on the one hand, a qualitative technique based on discourse analysis and, on the other, a quantitative technique based on the content analysis of the advertising broadcast for seven consecutive days on three specialised channels and two generalist channels on Spanish television. The results reveal a systematic noncompliance with this code, which translates into inadequate eating habits among children. The immediate conclusion is that 9 out of 10 parts of food and drink advertising do not comply with any of the rules of the PAOS Code and that self-regulation by the advertising companies is negligible and insufficient.
