Summary: This paper proposes a method to scientifically plan urban cordons to minimize waiting time in queues during the COVID-19 pandemic. A two-stage optimization model is developed, using queuing theory and heuristic algorithms to determine the allocation of test stations. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods in finding optimal solutions.

Summary: This paper proposes a bi-level programming model to deploy checkpoints at each entry link of a cordon sanitaire, aiming to minimize the waiting time for travelers. The model considers transportation network equilibrium, queuing, traffic flow, and queuing delay time to optimize the system's total waiting time.

Summary: This paper proposes a method for determining the optimal deployment of cordon sanitaire for epidemic control using a bi-level multi-objective programming model. A heuristic algorithm is used to find a good heuristic optimal solution. The results of the study are helpful for planners in determining the optimal deployment of cordon sanitaire for disease control and prevention purposes.

Summary: The terms "social distance" and "social distancing" have become common in our world hit by COVID-19. How social distancing strategies intersect with existing social divisions is explored using a unique rural dataset from Karnataka, India. The analysis provides evidence for a 'permanent cordon sanitaire' and sheds light on the impact of the pandemic on internal migration trajectories in India.

Summary: This article discusses the cordon sanitaire between the French mainstream right-wing party and its far-right counterpart. The usual hypotheses for mainstream and far-right party coalitions are not applicable in the French case. By re-evaluating ideological disagreements and considering the importance of competence and credibility in the party image, this paradox can be resolved.

Summary: Endocytosis is a crucial mechanism for cells to perform their functions, and it involves various mechanisms and regulatory proteins. Dynamin, a GTPase, plays a vital role in forming endocytic vesicles and regulating the process. Apart from dynamin, there are other GTPases, membrane proteins, and secondary messengers involved in dynamin-independent endocytosis. The determination of the specific path of endocytosis is complex and challenging to understand.

Summary: This longitudinal study investigates the prevalence and predictors of mental distress among populations affected by EVD outbreaks in the Province of Equateur in DR Congo. The results show a decrease in mental distress symptoms, but the prevalence remains high. Better health and education communication strategies are needed to reduce stigmatization.
