Mucormycosis is a fungal infection which has drawn everyone's attention after an enormous outbreak in covid-19 patients who have been hospitalized. Even those covid-19 positive patients who were at home, but were treated with steroid therapy without any oxygen support had developed this serious infection. Steroid therapy compromised their immune system thereby facilitating exponential growth of this commonly found fungus in the environment, which was previously harmless. Incidences of this disease has become so frequent that it has been declared an epidemic in various states of India by the local government. It has already created a widespread havoc in our Healthcare system along with fatally compromising the health of some patients and handicapping others due to the surgery required to remove infected eye or necrosed alveolar bone. This requires rehabilitation of lost part to regain function and esthetics.

This research used a descriptive qualitative approach using content analysis techniques and library research. The results show that if in an area where the potential for outbreaks of the covid-19 outbreak is high and there has been an appeal from the local government and scholars (MUI), then in these state the more important thing is to perform tarawih prayers at home, both congregationally with family members, and this is the preferred, or individually; (2) invalidity of the prayers of a person who follows the congregational prayers outside the mosque building, where the scholars agree that he must go to the mosque; and (3) it is permissible to recite from the mushaf in the sunnah (optional) prayers, such as tarawih prayer for imams who do not memorize the Koran. As for the obligatory prayers, it is disliked because there is no need to do so. This law also applies to someone who wants to recite the Koran with the software of Koran on mobile phones.

1AbstractCOVID-19 has significantly changed our daily lives. Stay-at-home orders and forced closings of all non-essential businesses has had a significant impact on our economy. While it is important to ensure that the healthcare system is not overwhelmed, there are many questions that remain about the efficacy of extreme social distancing, and whether there are alternatives to mandatory lockdowns. This paper analyzes the utility of various levels of social distancing, and suggests an alternative approach using voluntary distancing informed by an infectious load index or ‘infection weather report.’

It takes an intensive understanding of the corona virus and how to deal with it so that the spread rate does not increase. Especially early childhood, including those who are vulnerable to the Covid-19 virus because they do not understand how fast this virus spreads and still have an immune system that is vulnerable to the virus. With the Covid-19 virus, it has resulted in children being unable to study at school, so learning activities must also be supported by parents at home and teachers are also responsible for monitoring children's learning activities. This Covid-19 virus also brings fear and worry to children, this is because children do not understand how they understand the virus and how to prevent it. Therefore, it is very important to carry out socialization or education about the prevention of Covid-19 for children -child. Covid-19 prevention education contains the introduction of the Covid-19 virus, how to deal with worry, and how to prevent the Covid-19 virus through short animated videos that are interesting and easy for children to understand, so that children's worries can be reduced and parents will also understand how to teach children to prevent the virus.

The Dutch healthcare system is considered by many to be one of the finest in the world because of its pioneering provision and decent level of funding. ‘Zorg in de gemeenschap’ or ‘care in the community’ is a both a distinguishing and defining feature of the Dutch cure and care system. The Dutch spend around 3.7% of their GDP on long-term care, the highest in the OECD, and offer many examples of innovation in caring for older people in the community and at home. Nearly 13% of the population aged over 65 receive care at home, compared with just 4.9% across the OECD. In this chapter, Mark Britnell looks at the Dutch healthcare system; its structure, funding, future, and much else. He points out that a strength of the Dutch healthcare system is the emphasis placed on well-resourced primary care, and looks at how it affects general care.

Currently, Japan is rapidly aging. Japanese government agencies report that the percentage of elderly people whose ages are at least 65 years will increase by up to about 30 percent in 2025. As one of the measures towards this situation, the community-based integrated healthcare system will be introduced in Japan. The system aims to provide elderly people living at home with appropriate health, medical, and welfare services. We focus on the burden of sharing information on the situation of the elderly at home among health, medical, welfare staffs, and neighbors. We have been developing a supporting system for sharing information on the situation of the elderly at home and conducted a field test around one year. We consider that various stakeholders involved in the community comprehensive health care system could recognize the importance of information sharing and collaboration with them through this kind of social implementation
