De expertise van Alexander Hoischen ligt op het grensvlak van genetica en immunologie: daar onderzoekt hij het DNA van patiënten met zeldzame erfelijke afweerstoornissen. Bij een verdenking op een genetische oorzaak, duikt Hoischen in het DNA, op zoek naar een foutje. Hoischen: ‘Ik vind het mooi dat ik werk aan verschillende aandoeningen, waar vaak nog […]

Almost 18 months on from WHO declaring that COVID-19 no longer constitutes a global health emergency, governments internationally are working to evaluate their response to the pandemic and identify where improvements could be made. COVID-19: confronting a new world risk, a comprehensive book, edited by Jamie Wardman and Ragnar Löfstedt, takes us back to the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic (with a whistle-stop tour through other infectious disease outbreaks) and informs on how risk perception, risk science, and risk communication can help to aid in managing countries' response to a pandemic on both a macro and micro scale.
Contaminated surfaces play a significant role in the transmission of epidemiologically important pathogens e.g. norovirus, meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant Enterococci (VRE), Clostridioides difficile (CDI), multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter spp., carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE), some respiratory viruses, such as influenza and emerging pathogens, such as Candida auris.[1-4] It is well accepted that effective environmental hygiene reduces incidence of healthcare-associated infections.
