This article focuses on innovative development of Health Care Sector of the future in terms of modern challenges of the Covid-19 Coronavirus Infection in Ukraine Aims: To identify innovative healthcare delivery models that have been implemented in Ukraine as well as to evaluate their effectiveness in healthcare improvement of the access and delivery, availability and distribution of medical equipment and PPE, healthcare infrastructure, healthcare workforce development and retention, and development of healthcare information systems in Ukraine. Study design: In this study a mixed-approach strategy that combines quantitative and qualitative research methodologies was utilised. Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted on patients, professionals’ healthcare establishment and policy maker stakeholders in Ukraine. It is a mix of different evaluations on the topic. Methodology: Surveys, interviews, and questionnaires were examples of data collecting tools. The research was conducted online, offline, or both means. Data analysis processes included both quantitative and qualitative methods. Results: Most countries adopted Beveridge principle-based health care system, which were 90% efficient and 98% pandemic resistant. Masks, gloves, and PPE were globally limited, and hospitals had 73, 35% medical equipment and 57% personal protective equipment in April 2020, but 32, 9% and 67,5% in December 2020 due to COVID-19 instances. In December 2020, hospital personnel rose from 85, 56% (Chernihiv region) to 94% to serve new COVID-19 patients (Kherson area). Technology, data analytics, AI, and the block chain may fix the coronavirus. Facebook is the finest example of using digital technology. Another example is to produce digital maps of population. Government efficiency and resources have powered pandemic responses. Conclusion: Ukraine must adopt new healthcare delivery methods and must stock and use medical and PPE. A strong, patient-centered healthcare system requires effective health finance. Healthcare professionals need ongoing training to stay. A hospital IT development initiative is needed to improve efficiency as Ukraine struggled with healthcare information systems during this pandemic.

“…During the battle against the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, [1][2][3] cold-chain transport has proven to be an important method for the crossregional transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). [4,5] Although COVID-19 no longer constitutes a public health emergency of international concern, [6] it remains a global health threat due to the remaining uncertainties posed by the potential evolution of SARS-CoV-2.…”

Sterilization effect and mechanism exploration of a mode‐combination method on Staphylococcus aureus in thick ice layers in a large sealed freezer

Cold‐chain transport is a crucial cross‐regional transmission pathway for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and other microorganisms. In this study, the mode‐combination method is adopted for sterilization in a 1.138 m3 freezer by mixing effluent gases of NOx and O3 mode air discharges. The mixed gas can effectively inactivate Staphylococcus aureus in 10 mm ice within 3 h, which significantly surpasses O3 gas. Moreover, the inactivation effect of the mixed gas can penetrate deep into ice, contrasting with the surface effect of O3 gas. This disparity is linked to the difference in penetration depth of strong oxidizing long‐lived reactive species. This study validates the sterilization efficacy of cold atmospheric plasma in practical cold‐chain environment, critical for curbing infectious disease transmission.

“…On January 30, 2020, the Department of Health (DOH) of the Philippines reported its first case of COVID-19, a novel respiratory disease first identified in Wuhan, China, that is caused by the coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2 (Xie et al, 2020; Zhu et al, 2020; Guan et al, 2020; Reis et al, 2022). With widespread human-to-human transmission, the virus is highly contagious, and the COVID-19 pandemic became a global concern of historic proportions (van Ginneken et al, 2022; Siddiqui, Alhamdi & Alghamdi, 2022; Sachs et al, 2022; Cassell et al, 2022). As of April 5, 2023, there have been 4,082,418 confirmed cases and 66,390 confirmed deaths from COVID-19 reported by the DOH throughout the archipelago (www.covid19.gov.ph).…”

To mitigate the unprecedented health, social, and economic damage of COVID-19, the Philippines implemented a nation-wide vaccine program to mitigate the effects of the global pandemic. In a previous study, we interrogated COVID-19 vaccine intent in the country by deploying a nationwide open-access online survey, two months before the initial rollout of the national vaccination program that began in March of 2021. In this follow-up study, we explored the influence of the ongoing vaccine rollout on vaccine intent by deploying a similar survey six months after the initial rollout of vaccines had begun throughout the archipelago. Our data suggests that the presence of vaccines and vaccinated individuals in a Filipino community predicts vaccination intent. When directly asked if they were more willing to receive a vaccination than six months prior, 92.26% agreed to some extent that they were indeed more willing. Finally, despite the changes in the numbers of respondents who were more open to the COVID-19 vaccines, there were no significant changes in the predictive power of our Health Belief Model (HBM) constructs. For the most part, the HBM factors that predicted vaccination intent in our earlier study also predicted vaccination intent in this current study.
