Decline in cervical cancer screening and challenges faced by healthcare professionals and patients when the pandemic was declared emphasize the importance of implementing human papillomavirus (HPV) primary screening, HPV self-sampling, and telemedicine to continue cervical cancer screening and care.

Genome sequence data from 58 Mexican swine influenza A viruses resolves the spatial origin of the virus that originated the influenza pandemic of 2009.

The COVID-19 pandemic has clearly demonstrated the need for a global system to monitor the dynamics of susceptibility and immunity, as well as infection, during epidemics and pandemics.

The overall mortality consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States are predominantly attributable to the direct impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection but there are substantial indirect effects among children and young adults, and in mortality from accidents, homicides, and overdoses.

Predicting the pandemic potential of influenza viruses from genetic sequence data could transform pandemic risk assessment but progress towards this goal will require the integration of experimental work, computational tools, and virus surveillance.

The mathematical modeling approach disentangles the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on antibiotic resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae in the community setting and identifies the three most plausible driving mechanisms responsible for the observed trends in invasive isolates and pneumococcal carriage.

Improved cervical cancer prevention through greatly increased population coverage by use of self-sampling and HPV screening during the COVID-19 pandemic.

We identify key strengths and limitations in use of viral genotyping and phenotyping to estimate pandemic risk from influenza A viruses, focusing on 3 traits, hemagglutinin binding specificity, hemagglutinin pH of activation, and polymerase complex efficiency.

Reductions in cervical cancer screening and colposcopy among nearly half of surveyed clinicians more than a year into the COVID-19 pandemic raise concerns that inadequate screening and follow-up will lead to future increases in preventable cancers.

The World Mortality Dataset and paper is the largest dataset of all-cause mortality currently in existence for tracking mortality and excess mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic.
