  • Urgent dental care for patients during the COVID-19 pandemic

    Manas Dave，Noha Seoudi，Paul Coulthard

    Published:April 03, 2020DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/S0140-6736(20)30806-0

    During the initial phase of a pandemic, when a vaccine is not available, personal protective equipment (PPE)1 plays a major part in disease control. Dental and oral surgery procedures using drills or ultrasonic devices cause aerosol release, and routine dentistry has therefore been suspended in several countries, including the UK, to reduce virus transmission. There is an urgent need for organised emergency dental care delivered by teams provided with appropriate PPE.2 This also allows for redistribution of PPE to urgent care when there is inevitably an initial shortage and distribution challenge.

    • Preparing African anticancer centres in the COVID-19 outbreak Amine Souadka，Amine Benkabbou，Brahim Al Ahmadi，Saber Boutayeb，Mohammed，Anass Majbar Published:April 03, 2020DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/S1470-2045(20)30216-3 We congratulate Wenhua Liang and colleagues for their Comment laying out the strategic policies against cancer during the COVID-19 outbreak.1 The disease is now spreading rapidly to and within Africa. Like other countries, Morocco had the opportunity to analyse early COVID-19 data and acknowledge that individual-scale policies such as isolation would not stop the pandemic. Morocco adopted large-scale drastic measures early, including constraining mobility with a mandatory restrictive housing and curfew, despite the low number of cases (starting from 60 cases) compared with Europe. We expect that COVID-19 will have a major impact on African countries, with the risk of a rapid health-care system shutdown, due to a pre-existing shortage in material (eg, intensive-care unit beds or protective equipment) and human resources.

    • COVID-19 and medical education Hanad Ahmed Mohammed Allaf Hussein Elghazaly Published:March 23, 2020DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/S1473-3099(20)30226-7 The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has rapidly transitioned into a worldwide pandemic. This development has had serious implications for public institutions and raises particular questions for medical schools. Frequent rotations between departments and hospitals make medical students potential vectors for COVID-19. Equally, as trainee doctors we stand to learn a tremendous amount and can contribute to the care of patients, particularly if the UK General Medical Council triggers article 18a of the Medical Student Act (1983).
