New research suggests booster dose of Novavax NVX-CoV2373 vaccine is effective against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron subvariants.Hypertension control and management declined during the pandemic, study finds.The team estimated the outdoor air temperature approximately 1.5 m above the ground.
For the analysis, the corresponding AMeDAS in Sapporo City, Osaka City, and Ota Ward in Tokyo were selected. The Automated Meteorological Data Acquisition System (AMeDAS), a network of numerous weather stations, has been installed by the JMA all across Japan. The available data collected and provided by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) served as the source for the monthly mean temperature (MMT). The age-adjusted mortality rate (MR adj) was applied to the population by age group to account for yearly variations and city variances. Heart failure (HF), intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), cerebral infarction (CI), respiratory diseases (Resp), cardiac arrhythmia and conduction disorders (CACD), and ischemic heart disease (IHD) were the seven illnesses examined in this study. Due to the statistical reports produced by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare (MHLW), the figures were highly reliable. The monthly death toll for each cause of death is made available on the Japanese government's "e-Stat" portal website. For example, in August, the mean ambient temperatures were 22.3 ☌ in Sapporo, 29 ☌ in Osaka, and 26.9 ☌ in Tokyo, while the mean temperatures in December were 0.9 ☌ in Sapporo, 17.1 ☌ in Osaka, and 15.8 ☌ in Tokyo. These teams were assessed because they exhibited different climates. The three largest cities that were the focus of this study were Sapporo City (Sapporo), Osaka City (Osaka), and Tokyo 23 wards (Tokyo), which have a population of 1.97 million, 2.75 million, and 9.71 million, respectively, in 2021. In the present study, researchers assessed the variations in temperature-sensitive disease mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan. This indicates that examining the alterations in the number of cardiovascular and respiratory mortality caused by behavioral changes will be crucial in researching various issues, including climate change, public health, and the aging population. Compared to 2019 (pre-COVID-19), this represented a considerable decrease of 5,029 and 20,507, respectively.

Study: Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on changes in temperature-sensitive cardiovascular and respiratory disease mortality in Japan. In a recent study published in PLOS ONE, researchers assessed the impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on temperature-sensitive disease mortality.
