K-State medical director contributes to research on SARS-CoV-2 transmission and quarantine periods
Kyle Goerl, the medical director of Kansas State University s Lafene Health Center, is part of a collaborative team that is providing research-based guidance during the COVID-19 pandemic. The team s latest research contributed to the updated quarantine guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Goerl is a co-author of the publication Time from Start of Quarantine to SARS-CoV-2 Positive Test Among Quarantined College and University Athletes. The publication appeared in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report from the CDC on Friday, Jan. 8, and involved researchers from multiple organizations and universities.
Now streaming on: Extraordinary Measures is an ordinary film with ordinary characters in a story too big for it. Life has been reduced to a Lifetime movie. The story, based on fact, is compelling: Two sick children have no more than a year to live when their father determines to seek out a maverick scientist who may have a cure. This is Lorenzo s Oil with a different disease, Pompe disease, although it fudges the facts to create a better story.
The film centers on two dying children, ages 9 and 7. In real life, most children with Pompe die before age 2, and those in the real story were 15 months and 7 days old when they got sick, and 5 and 4 years old when they began treatment.
