New Hanover Health and Human Services Data Committe gives Covid stat update - WHQR

At Friday's Health and Human Services Board Data Subcommittee meeting, COVID metrics and how they're affecting the county were discussed.

The county's Pandemic Operations team gave an update on staffing up — the PanOps team is tasked with providing data and trends for New Hanover County, along with a host of other pandemic-related tasks that have, for the last two years, been on the shoulders of other county employees.

The subcommittee discussed whether it needed to continue meeting — some board members argued the PanOps team had "stepped up" and provided what was needed.

The subcommittee also reviewed the latest Covid-19 data.

  • Between Tuesday and Friday morning, in New Hanover County 1,661 people have tested positive.
  • The current county positivity rate is 38.8% – the State is at 30.4%.
  • At New Hanover Regional Medical Center there are currently 11 patients in the ICU or on ventilators.
  • Vaccination cover is at 62%— fully vaccinated.

Board member Dr. Delma Kinlaw brought up the issue of "incidental" cases, where patients are admitted to the hospital for other health issues and only after being tested in the hospital, come back positive. There was pushback, however, with members saying New Hanover County is not equipped to provide this kind of data.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — An outbreak of the highly pathogenic avian influenza virus in poultry in 2014-15 resulted in the destruction of more than 50 million chickens and turkeys in the U.S., causing billions of dollars in economic loss. This animal disease outbreak — the worst in U.S. history — is one example of how devastating a foreign animal disease can be to animal agriculture and the country's economy. The resurgence of avian influenza in multiple states, including Pennsylvania, is once again bringing the importance of preventing animal diseases to the forefront, noted Suresh Kuchipudi, clinical professor of microbiology in Penn State's College of Agricultural Sciences. Exploring the emergence, spread and control of animal infectious diseases such as avian influenza was the focus of the inaugural Emerging Animal Infectious Disease Conference held Nov. 29-Dec.1, 2021, at Penn State. It was hosted by the College of Agricultural Sciences, the Pennsylvania Department of A...

dented can botulism :: Article Creator Three Canadians Sickened In France's Botulism Outbreak Are From Quebec: PHAC The Public Health Agency of Canada has confirmed that the three Canadians who fell ill in a botulism outbreak in France are from Quebec. They're among at least 12 people who have suspected botulism after eating sardines prepared and served at Tchin Tchin Wine Bar in Bordeaux, France. The food was eaten between Sept. 4 and Sept. 10. The Associated Press has reported that some patients have been released from hospital, but most of them are in intensive care or critical condition. Canada's public health agency says it cannot divulge the condition of the patients from Quebec because it is considered private health information. Other tourists from the U.S., Ireland, Germany and Spain were among those sickened. One patient, who was not from Canada, has died. France's public health agency is leading the investigation...

Navel Orangeworm Plague Might be Growing Out of Control - Growing Produce

JavaScript is required for the gallery to function properly. Start Slideshow When it comes to navel orangeworm control in your pistachio, almond, and walnut orchards in the fall and winter, sanitation is the key. While that sounds simple — destroy any mummy nuts — the truth is there are a lot of factors that can make a simple solution complicated. Advertisement These complications have financial implications, as labor to help clean up the orchard can be costly and time-consuming. These complications can also come in the form of weather issues that make postharvest cleanup more of a challenge. “Although this is a proven practice, we still see some growers are not doing this practice, for whatever reason. Sometimes, it is difficult to do mummy sanitation due to the rainfall in the winter, or due to the heavy ground in some orchards. But it is important to plan in advance considering these factors. Sanitation can be done at any time between October and Feb. 1,” Jhalendr...
