    Students will write a 2,000 (not including Cover & Reference Pages) Word Paper in APA using at least 5 external sources from prominent Medical journals within the past 5-Years to support their work.
    Referencing the following Peer reviewed Journal on Remdesivir, students will cite in this case:
    Remdesivir in adults with severe COVID-19 a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter trial.pdf
    (Above file in the link is attached below)
    Students will seek to answer the following questions precisely and in full with sufficient support:
    According to NIH, legacy drugs like hydroxychloroquine, a mono-clonal anti-body, and ivermectin, an antiparasitic lack the efficacy to treat COVID-19. However, new novel drugs like remdesivir, and anti-viral come highly recommended without proven efficacy and safety in clinical trials. How did the clinical trials differ between products and what did the research show?
    What role does the NIAID play in the funding and development of new drugs? Is there a conflict of interest between the NIAID and pharmaceutical companies? Support your answer in detail will specific examples providing relevant sources to support your findings.
    When looking at the 2016 and 2018 clinical trials of remdesivir, what other drug(s) were studied and why? How were the studies conducted? Was the research conclusive and why? What are the differences between these studies and the FDA’s approval of remdesivir in the treatment of COVID-19 and why? Why is the FDA Approval of remdesivir significant?
    What was the position of the WHO, EU, and China on the use of remdesivir in the treatment of COVID-19 and how did it differ from the NIH? Why is this significant from a Global Regulatory Affairs Perspective?
    What were the major differences between the NIAID Clinical Trail and the Chinese Clinical Study? What can you logically conclude regarding the efficacy and safety of the use of remdesivir from this research?
    What is Veklury, why did the FDA approve it, and why is this drug central to the discussion?
    ReciteWorks (https://reciteworks.com) should be used to check that in-text citations match the reference list.

    Assignment Content
    For this assignment, you will continue to develop your problem, purpose, and research question. These 3 factors are central to the alignment of your study. Be sure to review the feedback from your URM in Teams to continue to develop your alignment for in-class submission to your Chair this week.
    Dissertation: Topic: Challenges in HealthCare Workforce
    Population: Nursing Staff
    Review the following components of the “Doctoral Phase 2 – Precis” section of the CDS Dissertation Guide on CDS Central:
    Problem Statement
    Purpose of the Study
    Research Questions/Hypotheses
    ***Part 1: Develop your opening paragraph and background of the study or problem. The opening paragraph/statement should bring the reader into the topic, while the background of the study/problem should frame the problem and identify the gaps and/or deficiencies from prior research. It is important to present why the study should be pursued and for whom the study is important. ***Part 2: Develop your Problem Statement, Purpose of the Study, and Research Questions/Hypotheses sections.
    ***Part 3: Develop the Nature of the Study
    For part of this assignment, you will develop the Nature of the Study section. The Nature of the Study should provide a synopsis and justification of the research method and design for your study. These elements should be in line with the problem, purpose, and research questions developed earlier in this class. Remember, too, that the method is your general approach (qualitative, quantitative, mixed method), and the design (case study, phenomenology, correlational, etc.) will fall within the method you chose. Adhere to the template found in “Doctoral Phase 2 – Precis” of the CDS Dissertation Guide.
    Combined, these sections should be 3-4 pages long. You may use previous coursework and/or the following worksheets when developing your dissertation phase deliverables.
    Problem Statement Worksheet
    Purpose Statement Worksheet
    Be sure to support all aspects with peer-reviewed literature and include APA formatted references.
    Format your paper according to APA guidelines.

    Thinking about the goals and objectives of public health as a discipline, you will write an essay in which you will present and substantiate a position regarding the ideal U.S. healthcare system. Justification must be based on the evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of the structure, organization, regulation, financing, etc. of the U.S. healthcare system in comparison to the healthcare systems of other countries. This essay should not be a summary of healthcare systems, but an argument for a future healthcare system in the U.S. accompanied by an analysis that exhibits an understanding of the current systems and the identification of similarities/differences and strengths/weaknesses of each.
    Please use a 12-point font and standard (one-inch on all sides) margins.
    Please include a list of references (not included in the two to three pages) in APA format (link for more information: https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/a… (Links to an external site.)), and remember to cite your sources in your paper.

    Week 2 Discussion – Consistency in Branding
    12 Unread replies12 Replies
    In the discussion, respond to the following. Be sure to respond to all parts of the questions in order to earn full credit.
    Use the Internet to look for a health care organization in your area such as a hospital, rehabilitation center, emergency medical center or a nursing home. Take some time to look at the organization’s logo and other elements of brand identity. Using what you learned about Schmitt and Simonson’s drivers of identify management regarding inconsistent image, determine whether the chosen facility’s logo and associated branding elements convey an image of consistency and order. Be sure to support your analysis with rationale from the textbook and any other resources you may identify on the subject.
    For the discussion, provide a link that shows at least two of the health care organization’s branding elements (such as their website, social media page, or press release) and explain, with rationale, whether the branding within these elements conveys consistency and order. Describe what impact (positive or negative) the branding elements could have on patient choice.
