Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will comprise papers covering a variety of health, environmental, and safety concerns both in the US and internationally, such as infectious disease pandemics, environmental health risks, vaccination development and delivery, crisis and emergency management, air pollution and allergic diseases, food safety and nutrition, environmental justice, crime and injury prevention, traffic accident and safety, and so on. A special emphasis is given to innovative methodological and technological contributions to estimating disease burden from environmental risk factors, measuring the relationships among medicine, science, the natural and human-made environment, geography, culture, socioeconomic factors, policies and health, and developing strategies for addressing outstanding global health, safety and sustainability issues. Papers selected for this issue may also discuss how national and regional public health and environmental authorities around the world have coped with uncertainty during the rapid spread of the ongoing COVID-19 epidemic.
