RESUMO
To determine prevalence of, seroprevalence of, and potential exposure to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) among a cohort of evacuees returning to the United States from Wuhan, China, in January 2020, we conducted a cross-sectional study of quarantined evacuees from 1 repatriation flight. Overall, 193 of 195 evacuees completed exposure surveys and submitted upper respiratory or serum specimens or both at arrival in the United States. Nearly all evacuees had taken preventive measures to limit potential exposure while in Wuhan, and none had detectable SARS-CoV-2 in upper respiratory tract specimens, suggesting the absence of asymptomatic respiratory shedding among this group at the time of testing. Evidence of antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 was detected in 1 evacuee, who reported experiencing no symptoms or high-risk exposures in the previous 2 months. These findings demonstrated that this group of evacuees posed a low risk of introducing SARS-CoV-2 to the United States.

The Summary of Notifiable Infectious Diseases and Conditions - United States, 2015 (hereafter referred to as the summary) contains the official statistics, in tabular and graphical form, for the reported occurrence of nationally notifiable infectious diseases and conditions in the United States for 2015. Unless otherwise noted, data are final totals for 2015 reported as of June 30, 2016. These statistics are collected and compiled from reports sent by U.S. state and territories, New York City, and District of Columbia health departments to the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System (NNDSS), which is operated by CDC in collaboration with the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE). This summary is available at https://www.cdc.gov/MMWR/MMWR_nd/index.html. This site also includes summary publications from previous years.

The Foster Pain Intervention (FPI) is a 24-minute videotape of a nurse showing breathing and movement skills with four postoperative mobility activities to a patient. Its preoperative use incorporates self-efficacy concepts to teach techniques that can improve postoperative pain and mobility. This study compared the effects of the FPI on postoperative pain and mobility and the relationship with self-efficacy in 70 elective hysterectomy patients. The treatment group (n = 35) received the FPI and routine information, whereas the control group (n = 35) received routine information through videotaped instruction. The treatment group had significantly less pain (p <.0001), higher observed mobility (p <.0001), and higher preoperative self-efficacy and was ready to go home sooner than the control group (p <.0001). These results suggest that the FPI enhances self-efficacy, decreases pain associated with postoperative activities, and promotes earlier independent mobilization.
