Neurologists around the country and the world are rapidly transitioning from traditional in-person visits to remote neurologic care because of the corona virus disease 2019 pandemic. Given calls and mandates for social distancing, most clinics have shuttered or are only conducting urgent and emergent visits. As a result, many neurologists are turning to teleneurology with real-time remote video-based visits with patients, to provide ongoing care. Although telemedicine utilization and comfort has grown for many acute and ambulatory neurologic conditions in the past decade, remote visits and workflows remain foreign to many patients and neurologists. Here, we provide a practical framework for clinicians to orient themselves to the remote neurologic assessment, offering suggestions for clinician and patient preparation prior to the visit; recommendations to manage common challenges with remote neurologic care; modifications to the neurologic exam for remote performance, including subspecialty-specific considerations for a variety of neurologic conditions; and a discussion of the key limitations of remote visits. These recommendations are intended to serve as a guide for immediate implementation as neurologists transition to remote care. These will be relevant not only for practice today, but also for the likely sustained expansion of teleneurology following the pandemic.

The emergence of a new virus in the global world at the end of 2019, namely Corona Virus Disease 2019, brought tremendous excitement to all inhabitants of the earth. The emergence of this virus brings tremendous concern and fear to the world because the spread of this virus is quite fast, even the most frightening is that the risk of death of people exposed to this virus is very large. Indonesia itself, cannot avoid the impact of this Covid-19 case. As a form of efforts to prevent and minimize transmission of the virus, the Indonesian government has issued a social distancing / physical distancing recommendation. This situation also causes the interaction between communities to be very limited. This situation seems to be able to eliminate hospitality among the community. This paper aims to emphasize the importance of maintaining the value of Christian hospitality in society amid the Covid-19 pandemic.

Currently, there is an unprecedented struggle among epidemiologists to create reliable means of protection against the new deadly corona-virus disease "COVID-19"that has engulfed human civilization. The situation is complicated by the lack of a clear understanding of the physical nature of viral epidemics and pandemics. The article based on the "space wave electromagnetic resonance concept" developed by the authors shows that the most likely cause of the corona virus pandemic, as well as most of the major pandemics of the past, were powerful electromagnetic and gravitational disturbances coming from Space.

Abstrak Kemunculan virus baru di dunia global pada akhir tahun 2019 yakni Corona Virus Disease 2019, membawa kegemparan yang luar biasa bagi seluruh penduduk bumi. Kemunculan virus ini membawa kekhawatiran serta ketakutan yang luar biasa bagi dunia karena penyebaran virus ini terbilang sangat cepat bahkan yang paling menakutkan ialah resiko kematian orang yang terpapar virus ini sangatlah besar. Indonesia sendiri, tidak dapat menghindari imbas kasus Covid-19 ini. Sebagai bentuk upaya pencegahan dan peminimalisiran penularan virus tersebut, maka pemerintah Indonesia mengeluarkan anjuran social distancing/physical distancing. Keadaan ini juga kemudian menjadikan interaksi antar masyarakat menjadi sangat terbatas. Keadaan ini agaknya mampu menghilangkan hospitalitas diantara masyrakat. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menekankan tentang pentingnya tetap memelihara nilai hospitalitas Kristen dalam masyarakat ditengah pandemi Covid-19.

Pandemi Covid -19 mengejutkan dunia global pada akhir tahun 2019. Penyebaran Corona Virus disease 2019 (Covid-19) yang sangat cepat mengakibatkan kekhawatiran di seluruh dunia termasuk Indonesia karena pada tanggal 19 Maret 2020 sudah ada 309 kasus positif yang terus bertambah. Kebijakan Social distancing/physical distancing digalangkan pemerintah untuk meminimalisir perkembangan Covid-19. Masyarakat Indonesia menerima anjuran tersebut tetapi ada juga beberapa reaksi seperti panic buying, persekusi terhadap tenaga kesehatan yang diperkirakan terjangkit Covid-19. Pemimpin tidak boleh kehilangan empati sikap hospitalitas kepemimpinan di setiap masa kehidupan terutama dalam situasi pandemi seperti saat ini. Kata hospitalitas sendiri dapat diartikan sebagai keramah-tamahan, hospitalitas adalah bahasa Latin yang berasal dari akar kata hospes yang berarti “tuan rumah” atau pun “orang asing”. Melalui kata hospes ditemukan kata hospital yang juga berarti “ruang tamu”, “penginapan” yang pastinya menyiaratkan keramah-tamahan serta sambutan hangat. Pemimpin dan kepemimpinan adalah dua hal yang berbeda. Pemimpin adalah orangnya, yaitu seseorang yang melakukan fungsi memimpin. Sementara kepemimpinan adalah suatu hubungan sosial di mana seseorang atau kelompok tertentu, yang tidak lain adalah pemimpin, dibiarkan memengaruhi orang lain ke arah perubahan untuk mencapai sasaran bersama.

Introduction: This article includes the effect of Corona virus disease on cancer patients and their healthcare facilities. The global pandemic mentioned around the world has impacted the most vulnerable group of patients- cancer. With the assistance of RT PCR tests and HRCT, oncologists and doctors have tried to provide treatment to Covid-19 patients. Cancer patients are more susceptible to Covid-19 than non-cancer or non-survivor patients, according to reports. To avoid the prevalence and infection of cancer victims, WHO has suggested staying at home and continuing their treatment through telemedicine unless the situation is critical for which they might require therapy and/or surgery. Covid-19 is here to stay so we should practice with utmost care and precaution.

The corona virus disease, otherwise known as COVID-19, is an extremely communicable and pathogenic viral infection caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which emerged in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and has spread to almost all the countries in the world. The transmission of the virus is through touching of the nose, eyes, or mouth by a finger that has been contaminated through droplets on a surface when a carrier sneezes or coughs. Since the existing fingerprint devices are predominantly contact based, it implies that they can aid in the transmission of the virus. This paper discusses the application of fingerprint devices in notable places with high rate of COVID-19 infection as well as the threats to fingerprint technologies and the countermeasures. The need to change focus and orientation towards contactless biometric technologies as sure solution to the fear and animosity expressed towards contact-based fingerprint technology is also expatiated.

BACKGROUND The corona virus disease-19 (Covid-19) pandemic has put human civilization into a huge challenge, especially in the field of medicine in the management of patients with co-morbidities. Health authorities across the world depend greatly on reliable data to make major decisions and this is especially true during this global pandemic. The present review was conducted to estimate the challenges in the management of Covid-19 patients with metabolic syndrome with special emphasis on gender and age. Patients having pre-existing health conditions e.g., heart disease, diabetes are at higher risk of morbidity and mortality due to COVID-19. According to the WHO newsletter, COVID-19 has tragically claimed more than 1.5 million lives. The burden of obesity across the world has nearly tripled since 1975. In 2016, 1.9 billion adults, were overweight; 650 million were obese; 13 % of the world's adult population (11 % of males and 15 % of females) were obese in 2016. Obesity has been observed to be a high-risk factor for COVID-19 severity. Severe acute respiratory syndrome-corona virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) targets the angiotensinconverting enzyme 2 (ACE2) for cell entry and ACE2 is highly expressed in adipose tissue. This suggests an important role for the tissue in determining COVID-19 disease severity in obese individuals.1-2 There has been an increase in death from diabetes by 70 % globally between 2000 and 2019, and an 80 % rise in deaths among males has been observed. Metabolic syndrome comprises three or more of the following factors: increased waist circumference; hypertriglyceridemia; elevated blood pressure; reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; hyperglycemia.1-2 Visceral fat is known to produce higher concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines. These are then released in the bloodstream. Release of proinflammatory markers in blood stream may cause auto-amplifying cytokine production (“cytokine storms”) and low-grade inflammation. Cytokine storm and low-grade inflammation can contribute to worsening of COVID-19 patients with obesity. Components of metabolic syndrome such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and obesity are highly prevalent among the general population and have been observed to significantly increase the risk of hospitalization and mortality in COVID-19 patients.1-2 KEYWORDS Covid-19 Pandemic, Metabolic syndrome, Aging, Gender
