With the onset of the coronavirus pandemic in December 2019 in China, and the alarming rate at which it has spread across the world has unleashed not only fear, but has taken a toll on social, economic, health, and governing capabilities of the various countries infected with the virus. The pandemic is affecting all aspects of life, including industries such as the animal production industry all over the world. This includes plant, livestock and poultry production. Food security is accordingly impacted, as these industries are vital elements that are contributing to securing food to populations worldwide. In this review, light is shed on the origin of coronaviruses with special emphasis on COVID-19. It also includes introduction of symptoms, epidemiology and pathogenesis, etiology, and prevention. As the disease progresses, scientists are working around the clock in the hope of an effective vaccine, and they managed to introduce some to the worldwide populations. The world faces challenges on a day-to-day basis until most people are vaccinated.

The 2016 election of Donald J. Trump invoked a time for reflection about the state of American politics and its deep ideological, cultural, racial, regional, and economic divisions. But one aspect that the contemporary discussions often miss is that these fissures have been opening over several decades and are deeply rooted in the structure of American politics and society. Nolan McCarty's Polarization: What Everyone Needs to Know® is an accessible introduction to polarization in America. McCarty takes readers through what scholars know and don't know about the origins, development, and implications of our rising political conflicts, delving into social, economic, and geographic determinants of polarization in the United States. While the current political climate makes it clear that extreme views are becoming more popular, McCarty also argues that, contrary to popular belief, the 2016 election was a natural outgrowth of 40 years of polarized politics, instead of a significant break with the past. He explains the factors that have created this state of affairs, including gerrymandered legislative districts, partisan primary nomination systems, and our private campaign finance system. He also considers the potential of major reforms such as instating proportional representation or single-transferable voting to remedy extreme polarization. A concise overview of a complex and crucial topic in US politics, this book is for anyone wanting to understand how to repair the cracks in our system.

Child Nutritional Status

AbstractObjectiveTo investigate the comparative effect of social, economic, health and environmental characteristics on the nutritional status of children aged <3 years in Central Asia.DesignCross-sectional analysis using data from Demographic and Health Surveys.SettingUzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan.SubjectsInformation on demographic health was gathered by Macro International Inc., Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan governments from a random sample of 14 067 households in the three countries. Anthropometric measurements were performed using standardized procedures on all children <3 years of age (n 2358). Only children with plausible Z-scores (n 1989) were selected for subsequent analyses.ResultsThe main results indicated that country of residence, number of people in household, household wealth, birth weight, age of child, knowledge of oral rehydration therapy, maternal education, number of children <5 years of age and source of drinking water were strong predictors of child nutritional status in these countries. Furthermore, chronic malnutrition was most prevalent in all three countries but at varied levels. An unexpected finding was that fully vaccinated children were more likely to be malnourished than children who were partially vaccinated. A further unexpected finding was that breast-feeding especially in children >6 months old had a strong negative association with stunting and underweight.ConclusionsIn summary, the results from both the descriptive and binary logistic regression analysis are similar in terms of the explanatory variables and the statistical significance in the models.

Healthy Body

With the development of social, economic, health is increasingly being emphasized by people and has become a topic that can not be ignored. However, having a healthy body also need been the right health care. So, efficient and safe products are more popular with consumers. In paper, a self-service-based and purely mechanical traction treatment bed has been designed. The various parts of the self-traction treatment bed is introduced in detail. The structural designs of its unique folding feature, adjustable bed, a fixed bracket, rotation driving handle, the bottom track sliding, etc., make up for the design of the traditional traction therapy instrument. This traction treatment bed breaks the traditional design style and does reflect the modernist design style in the man-machine combination.

Academic service system is one of the supporting elements in education in high schoolor universities. Despite the rising awareness of the usefulness of the IT based academicsystem, some education institutions do not have the ability of developing andimplementing the system, especially due to the limited financial condition. Thedevelopment of cloud computing based information system appears as a new paradigmin IT world which enable the school to implement IT based academic informationsystem without investing big expenses of IT tools. The research is to learn the design ofarchitecture system and prototype system of the supporting software for the schoolacademic services. The result of this study would be the computer software toimplement at school to improve the academic system especially those schools withlimited financial condition and resources in developing the system
