Baker names 17-member coronavirus vaccine advisory group

October 11, 2020
| No Comments
| Health News

A 17-member group of doctors, public health experts, lawmakers and community activists will guide Gov. Charlie Baker’s administration on how to distribute a coronavirus vaccine — once one is available — equitably, safely and efficiently.

There are currently 11 vaccine candidates in the last phase of clinical trials testing for safety and efficacy, according to the New York Times vaccine tracker. Massachusetts’ own Moderna is currently conducting some of its trials at Brigham & Women’s Hospital in Boston. Moderna and Pfizer are leading the pack, most likely to cross the finish line to a viable vaccine first, experts have said.

The advisory group held its first meeting last week and the governor’s office said its work will build on vaccine planning that has been underway since August.

Members are working closely with leaders from the Department of Public Health and adding to the commonwealth’s state-of-the-art Massachusetts Immunization Information System, which

Pamplin Media Group – Vote for the health of our community

OPINION: There’s no worse time to threaten the healthcare of millions of Americans than during a pandemic.


With the 2020 presidential election just weeks away and a Supreme Court justice’s seat up for grabs, the Affordable Care Act has once again come under attack and with it, critical funding for the thousands of community health clinics across the United States that deliver care to 29 million Americans.

Community health clinics (CHCs) provide affordable, high quality, comprehensive primary care to medically underserved populations, regardless of their insurance status or ability to pay for services.

As chief executive officer of a Federally Qualified Health Center, I am deeply concerned at the prospect of the Affordable Care Act going away.

Neighborhood Health Center (NHC) offers medical, dental, family planning/reproductive health, and behavioral health services to Medicaid, Medicare and underinsured patients in Clackamas and Washington counties.

Over 85% of our more than 21,000 patients

Pediatricians’ Group Tackles Racism in Health Care | Health News

By Dennis Thompson
HealthDay Reporter

(HealthDay)

THURSDAY, Oct. 8, 2020 (HealthDay News) — As the struggle against racism continues to simmer across the United States, the American Academy of Pediatrics took a hard look at racial gaps in health care for children during its recent annual meeting.

“We know racism is a social determinant of health, and it’s a public health issue, so we spent a great deal of time focusing on that,” Dr. Elizabeth Murray, a pediatrician with the University of Rochester Medical Center, said during a recent HD Live! interview.

Pediatricians need to become more aware of how racism affects both the physical and mental health of children, said Murray, a spokesperson for the academy.

“We need to talk about racism and learn how to be anti-racist, and that we all have work to do,” Murray said. “We also need to identify the traumas that are experienced by

Boston research team says it has enrolled a diverse group in Moderna’s coronavirus vaccine study

The hospital is among 90 sites testing to see whether the prospective vaccine made by Moderna is safe and protects people against the coronavirus. The Cambridge biotech’s vaccine is among 11 candidates worldwide that have entered late-stage clinical trials.

“We want our study and enrollment to be representative of the epidemic and the communities disproportionately impacted,” said Baden, who is also one of three leaders of the national study.

Since the study began in the first week of August, Brigham and Women’s has recruited “many hundreds” of participants, he said, adding that he was not free to say exactly how many. Recruitment is continuing and is likely to be completed in “weeks, if not sooner,” Baden said.

Half the participants enrolled nationwide will receive the vaccine candidate, and half will get a placebo, in two injections 28 days apart. Then researchers will watch to see if those who received the

South Korea nurse group protests Blackpink music video

| Health Article

Oct. 6 (UPI) — Popular K-pop band Blackpink is under fire in their native South Korea for their depiction of nurses in a recent music video.

The Korean Nurses Association, South Korea’s oldest professional organization for nurses, said Tuesday in statement they condemn the sexualized image of a nurse in Blackpink’s music video Lovesick Girls, South Korean media service XSportsNews reported.

“One scene in the music video, where band member Jennie wears a nurse’s cap, a short skirt and high heels, turns nurses into sexual objects,” the group said, adding they sent a “letter of protest” to YG Entertainment, Blackpink’s agency.

On Tuesday, YG expressed “concern” and issued an apology. But the agency also defended creativity.

“The scene in which a nurse and patient appear reflect the lyrics,” the agency said, quoting the song’s lyrics, “No doctor could help when I’m lovesick.”

“There was no specific intention,” the agency said.

Catholic health system growth threatens patient access, advocacy group argues

October 6, 2020
| No Comments
| Community Health

Catholic health system has significantly grown in the U.S. since 2001, a trend that could hamper patients’ ability to access some healthcare services that are prohibited by the church, according to a report released Tuesday.

The consumer advocacy group Community Catalyst found the 10 largest Catholic health systems control 394 short-term, acute-care hospitals, a 50% increase since 2001. In a growing number of communities, researchers found residents’ only acute-care options are hospitals that operate under Catholic restrictions. And the report—the fourth in a series under the group’s Women’s Health Program—emphasized the difficulty of learning what services are and are not offered at such facilities.

Like the rest of healthcare, Catholic providers have gravitated toward offering services outside of hospitals. The 10 largest Catholic health systems—including giants like Chicago-based CommonSpirit Health and St. Louis-based Ascension Health—operate 864 urgent care clinics, 385 ambulatory surgery centers and 274 physician groups, according to the

Budget Analysis Keeps Group Health in Danger

(Credit: Congressional Budget Office)

Analysts at the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) have published an analysis that could keep employers’ group health benefits tax exclusion in budget cutters’ dreams, and nightmares, for years to come.

The CBO is now predicting that exempting group health premiums from employers’ taxable income will cost the federal government about $516 billion in tax revenue in the 2030 federal fiscal year, up from $303 billion for the 2021 federal fiscal year.

 

That means that the cost of the group health tax break could increase by 67%, or by about $200 billion per year.

The federal fiscal year runs from Oct. 1 through Sept. 30. Federal fiscal year 2021 started last Thursday.
