COVID-19: Vaccination Rates And Reopening Procedures
Two articles in the June issue of Health Affairs take a closer look at
ongoing issues related to COVID-19.
In one article, Tiffany Fitzpatrick and coauthors examine school
reopening procedures in Ontario, Canada
,
which entered a provincewide shutdown to mitigate COVID-19 transmission
in December 2020.
After the shutdown a regionalized approach was taken to reopen schools
throughout early 2021 without any other opening of the economy, offering
a unique natural experiment to estimate the impact of school reopening
on community transmission
Fitzpatrick and coauthors find very low rates of additional cases
subsequent to gradual reopening. They conclude "that any increases in
case growth after the reopening of schools may be manageable with
appropriate mitigation policies."
In another COVID-19 paper, Riley Shearer and coauthors describe trends
in COVID-19 vaccination rates
by racial and ethnic groups among people experiencing homelessness or
incarceration in Minnesota.
The authors report that 64.0 percent of the general population in
Minnesota and 70.9 percent of people recently incarcerated in prison had
completed the COVID-19 vaccine series by the end of 2021.
These vaccination rates far exceeded the vaccination rate among people
experiencing homelessness or jail incarceration.

Elsewhere At Health Affairs
Today in Health Affairs Forefront, Lilianna Suarez and Rushina Cholera
discuss the remarkable innovation, financial commitment, and resilience
government agencies and community-based organizations
have shown in addressing rapidly worsening childhood food insecurity
during the pandemic.
John Osborn and David Beier argue that exercising Bayh-Dole "march-in
rights" primarily to reduce the price of expensive drugs that have
been discovered or developed with federal funds ignores Bayh-Dole's
extraordinary impact
on innovation and the price reductions that occur with the introduction
of generic drugs.
