Asymptomatic testing for SARS-CoV-2 RNA has been used to prevent and manage COVID-19 outbreaks in university settings, but few studies have explored their implementation. The aim of the study was to evaluate how an accredited asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 testing service (ATS) was implemented at the University of Nottingham, a multi-campus university in England, to identify barriers and enablers of implementation and to draw out lessons for implementing pandemic response initiatives in higher education settings. A qualitative interview study was conducted with 25 ATS personnel between May and July 2022. Interviews were conducted online, audio-recorded, and transcribed. Participants were asked about their experience of the ATS, barriers and enablers of implementation. Transcripts were thematically analysed. There were four overarching themes: (1) social responsibility and innovation, (2) when, how and why people accessed testing, (3) impact of the ATS on the spread of COVID-19, and (4) lessons learned for the future. In establishing the service, the institution was seen to be valuing its community and socially responsible. The service was viewed to be broadly successful as a COVID-19 mitigation approach. Challenges to service implementation were the rapidly changing pandemic situation and government advice, delays in service accreditation and rollout to staff, ambivalence towards testing and isolating in the target population, and an inability to provide follow-up support for positive cases within the service. Facilitators included service visibility, reduction in organisational bureaucracy and red tape, inclusive leadership, collaborative working with regular feedback on service status, flexibility in service delivery approaches and simplicity of saliva testing. The ATS instilled a perception of early ‘return to normality’ and impacted positively on staff feelings of safety and wellbeing, with wider benefits for healthcare services and local communities. In conclusion, we identified common themes that have facilitated or hindered the implementation of a SARS-CoV-2 testing service at a university in England. Lessons learned from ATS implementation will inform future pandemic response interventions in higher education settings.

“…Fan et al comprehensively considered the relationship between ecology, industry, and civilized city selection [8]. Studies such those by as Liu [9], Hu et al [10], and Han et al [11] have examined the impact of specific events on cities' carbon emissions. Nevertheless, past studies have not attempted to establish a framework interconnecting carbon emissions, city ecology, and industrial structure.…”

This paper focuses on whether city honor competition has led to a sectoral shift. The research argues that cities’ actions in pursuing honor have led to their changing from the manufacturing sector to the service sector. This paper attempts to construct a theory from city competition to sector shift. The research methods used are year-by-year propensity score matching and the difference-in-difference method. The results of the regressions prove that a city honor competition leads to a shift from the manufacturing sector to the service sector. The true value of this effect is approximately between 2.3274 and 3.0393, showing that the city honor competition promotes a sectoral shift. The trend of the city’s economy towards the service sector is evident in the competition. The robustness test proves that the model satisfies the matching equilibrium assumption. The placebo test proves that other unobserved factors do not affect the policy. The heterogeneity test finds that the larger the city size, the stronger the effect of city honors on the sector.
