TL;DR: In this article, changes due to the coronavirus 2019 pandemic in terms of antimicrobial usage, infection prevention, and health systems affect the emergence, transmission, and burden of AMR.
Prevention and control of cholera with household and community water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) interventions: A scoping review of current international guidelines.
Lauren D’Mello-Guyett,Lauren D’Mello-Guyett,Karin Gallandat,Rafael Van den Bergh,Dawn Taylor,Gregory Bulit,Dominique Legros,Peter Maes,Francesco Checchi,Oliver Cumming +9 more
TL;DR: Recent evidence suggests that interventions for effective cholera control and response to epidemics should focus on case-centred approaches and within-household transmission.
Handwashing and Ebola virus disease outbreaks: A randomized comparison of soap, hand sanitizer, and 0.05% chlorine solutions on the inactivation and removal of model organisms Phi6 and E. coli from hands and persistence in rinse water.

TL;DR: HTH performed most consistently well, with significantly greater log reductions than other handwashing protocols in three models, suggesting protocols are similarly efficacious in Ebola contexts, considering the potential benefit of chlorine-based methods in rinse water persistence.
Selection of a Biosafety Level 1 (BSL-1) surrogate to evaluate surface disinfection efficacy in Ebola outbreaks: Comparison of four bacteriophages.
Karin Gallandat,Daniele Lantagne +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors replicated the Cook et al experiment using four potential BSL-1 surrogates selected based on similarities to the Ebola virus: bacteriophages MS2, M13, Phi6, and PR772.
Surface Cleaning and Disinfection: Efficacy Assessment of Four Chlorine Types Using Escherichia coli and the Ebola Surrogate Phi6.
TL;DR: The results support the recommendation of a 15 min exposure to 0.5% chlorine, independently of chlorine type, surface, pre-cleaning practices, and organic matter, as an efficacious measure to interrupt disease transmission from uncontrolled spills in Ebola outbreaks.
