We report a fatal case of Rhizopus azygosporus pneumonia in a 56-year-old man hospitalized for COVID-19 who had received methylprednisolone and tocilizumab. Although COVID-associated pulmonary aspergillosis has been widely documented, mucormycosis has been rarely reported. In this patient, receipt of two commonly used immunosuppressants likely contributed to mucormycosis risk, suggesting the need for vigilance in hospitalized patients with COVID-19.

Surprisingly little data is available on Latino nonprofits in the United States. The author describes a new content analysis strategy for extracting Latino subsets from large data sets that lack Hispanic identifiers. The strategy was used to generate statistics on Latino nonprofits from data on tax-exempt organizations compiled by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Findings indicate that Latino nonprofits comprise less than four tenths of 1% of all tax-exempt organizations. A relatively high proportion (two thirds) of all Latino nonprofits recognized by the IRS are recognized under I.R.C. ß 501(c)(3). Half of all Latino nonprofits are less than 10 years old. Latino nonprofits tend not to affiliate with other organizations. They are concentrated in the southwestern United States. Popular activities among Latino nonprofits are programs for veterans, scholarship and educational programs, and promotion of business and commerce. Rare activities include youthservices, legislative and political activities, litigation, and legal aid.

When civic and community groups-and the foundations that support themaddress public-policy issues, should universities be part of that effort? My answer is an enthusiastic yes! Let me illustrate why with a couple of examples. Examples of Policy-Relevant Research at UniversitiesThere is growing awareness of the rapid growth of our Latino population. By the middle of the twenty-first century, one out of four people in the United States will be Latino.1 Why the rapid growth? Most public officials, civic groups, philanthropists, reporters, and voters would say the primary reason is immigration. But demographers who study Latinos know better. The primary reason for the rapid growth is above-average birthrates among Latinos who reside in the United States.2 This important bit of knowledge is overlooked in the debate over immigration, bilingual education, very high dropout rates among Latino schoolchildren, and other relevant questions of public policy.In another example, if we ask those same civic leaders about the main problem posed by the growing Latino presence, they are likely to reply that Latinos are not learning English and assimilating into U.S. society fast enough. Again, peer-reviewed scholarship at universities tells a different story. Assimilation does occur, and it is hazardous to Latinos' health! Studies that compare first-, second-, and third-generation Latino immigrants have produced disturbing findings. When social indicators such as health, crime, school dropout rates, and unemployment are compared, the grandchildren of Latino immigrants are worse off than their less-assimilated grandparents. Again, this relatively unknown research has important implications for public policy making.These examples of research on Latinos illustrate a much broader problem. Many fields of scholarship at today' s universities produce findings of potential use to people who make or influence public policy. University faculty who create new knowledge through research are potential partners in the civic networks that develop around specific policy issues. Faculty are already in the

Neglect of Hispanic communities by most nonprofit organizations may help explain why relatively few Hispanics practice conventional forms of philanthropy. However, there is evidence that Hispanics in the United States support informal, traditional voluntary associations in their own communities. Historically, cultural traditions and informal mutual assistance have led to the formation of nonprofit corporations controlled by members of the Hispanic communities they serve. In the past two decades, the number of formal Hispanic nonprofits has grown rapily. It remains to be seen if the recent increase in Hispanic tax‐exempt organizations will change patterns of giving among the nation's growing Hispanic population.

Assessment of the residual strength of reinforced concrete buildings subjected to fire is a problem that many times requires a very fast resolution that is necessary for the action of firemen and/or for forensic fire investigation and/or structural assessment of post-fire condition of the building: in all cases safety and integrity of firemen and researchers can be at risk, and it is necessary to have quick and sufficiently reliable information in order to choose whether enter freely, enter with caution or simply do not enter the burned structure, so there is no time or background to develop mathematical models of damage propagation and/or of the structure. This work presents an experimental methodology for a fast assessment of post-fire residual strength of reinforced concrete frame buildings based on the high correlation between the loss of strength and non-destructive tests results of frame concrete elements subject to fire action.
