A neglected disease originated from Wuhan (China) conquered all worlds with doubt and fear. The current outbreak of viral coronavirus disease (COVID-19) quaked the world with the anxiety of economic and healthcare disturbances. The risk of further spread compelled the World Health Organization (WHO) to declare it as a national emergency and other countries obligated the decision with the provincial lockdown. In the present review, we have discussed the various aspects of pandemic spreads, its historical context and the latest investigations demonstrating the current scenario of COVID-19 in the world. Besides, we have highlighted the various aspects regarding the COVID-19 like preparedness and necessary aspects which will help for risk assessment and crisis management. Rapid sharing of scientific information is an effective way to implement awareness and response. In this perspective, we are providing frontline facets that can be helpful for epidemiologists and research scholars for further assessment and real-time guidance.

The skin manifestations of the novel coronavirus COVID-19 were not recognized at the early stages of the pandemic but have received much recent attention in scientific journals. Reported manifestations range from pseudo-chilblains to a morbilliform (measles-like) exanthem, urticaria, vesicular eruptions, a dengue-like petechial rash and ovate scaling macules, and plaques mimicking pityriasis rosea.

In January 2020, the World Health Organization declared a public health emergency and announced a new coronavirus disease (COVID-19), which would later go on to be declared as a pandemic, changing the global sphere and placing the economies of almost all countries under heavy stress. The airline industry, that had just begun recovering after facing crises one after another in the last two decades, from early 2000 due to 9/11, to the global financial crisis later, is now oce again facing an enormous challenge of closed borders and greater lockdowns due to the pandemic. Borders are closed, with very few planes are in the air, while the rest are grounded. The purpose of this paper is to give a conceptual understanding of the current pandemic situation and its consequences on the airline industry. The paper takes a unique perspective of human resource management (HRM) that is rarely used in the airline industry.

At the end of December, 2019, a new disease of unknown aetiology appeared in Wuhan, China. It was quickly identified as a novel betacoronavirus, and related to SARS-CoV and a number of other bat-borne SARS-like coronaviruses. The virus rapidly spread to all provinces in China, as well as a number of countries overseas, and was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern by the Director-General of the World Health Organization on 30 January 2020. This paper describes the evolution of the outbreak, and the known properties of the novel virus, SARS-CoV-2 and the clinical disease it causes, COVID-19, and comments on some of the important gaps in our knowledge of the virus and the disease it causes. The virus is the third zoonotic coronavirus, after SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV, but appears to be the only one with pandemic potential.

UNSTRUCTURED The COVID-19 outbreak started as pneumonia in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. The subsequent pandemic was declared as the sixth public health emergency of international concern on January 30, 2020, by the World Health Organization. Pakistan could be a potential hotspot for COVID-19 owing to its high population of 204.65 million and its struggling health care and economic systems. Pakistan was able to tackle the challenge with relatively mild repercussions. The present analysis has been conducted to highlight the situation of the disease in Pakistan in 2020 and the measures taken by various stakeholders coupled with support from the community to abate the risk of catastrophic spread of the virus.

More than one and a half years has elapsed since the World Health Organization (WHO) declared Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC), and characterized it as a pandemic. A systematic, monthly analysis of weekly situation reports of COVID-19 released by WHO and relevant news articles/events available in the digital version, since January 2020 to till date was done and the critical review of the pandemic management in the country is provided. The consequences of late reply to the pandemic in the 1st wave include failure of preventing the crowds of migrants in the cities queuing up to get a square meal and returning to homes by harsh journeys for long distances coupled with poverty led deaths rather than deaths due to COVID-19. In the 2nd wave, the system not only failed to face the war waged by the disease but rather, in few instances appeared to be encouraging super spread of COVID-19 through activities such as allowing the pilgrims to take dips in Ganges as a part of Maha Kumbh which lead to overwhelmed cases. The most important and the only valid way forward to win the battle of this pandemic along with sticking to Covid Appropriate Behaviour (CAB) is to invest more for vaccinations in union budget to get 95% of the citizens vaccinated at the earliest as the further waves are definitely going to target the unvaccinated individuals.

Considerada pela Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS) como problema de saúde pública, a violência contra a mulher (VCM) é uma epidemia mundial, estima-se que as mulheres em vivência de violência doméstica, ao longo de suas vidas, apresentam mais problemas de saúde e buscam, com mais frequência os serviços de saúde do que pessoas que não sofrem estes maus tratos. Diante do exposto, o presente estudo tem como objetivo: Identificar os fatores que facilitam e dificultam a assistência a saúde a mulher em situação de violência domestica segundo a literatura brasileira, visando à importância da identificação das mulheres em vivência de violência e a ampliação deste cuidado não apenas para a cura/tratamento, mas para o vínculo e acolhimento eficaz e humano entre o agente cuidador e o agente alvo de cuidados, visando à superação tanto do cenário atual, quanto de tal momento doloroso na vida na mulher.Descritores: Violência Doméstica e Sexual Contra a Mulher; Cuidados; associados ao uso do recurso booleano “AND”. ABSTRACT Considered by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a public health problem, violence against women (VCM) is a worldwide epidemic, it is estimated that women experiencing domestic violence throughout their lives have and seek health services more often than people who do not suffer from these ill-treatment. In view of the above, the present study aims to: Identify the factors that facilitate and hinder the health care of women in situations of domestic violence according to the Brazilian literature, aiming at the importance of identifying women in the experience of violence and the expansion of this care not only for the cure/treatment, but for the effective and humane bonding and reception between the caregiver agent and the target agent of care, aiming at overcoming both the current scenario and that painful moment in life in the woman. Descriptors: Domestic and Sexual Violence Against Women; Care; associated with the use of the boolean "AND".
