Key messages: covid-19 has revealed the multiple resources and systems of support that underpin families’ ability to eat well and, when disrupted, can limit capacity to procure and prepare nutritious foods. policies designed to improve diets must consider the multiple roles food plays in everyday life, beyond just a source of nutrition, to ensure actions are effective and equitable

Interventions targeting patients with long-term conditions and multimorbidity and health-care system reorganisations. key messages: treatment burden is associated with poor health and health- related quality of life and, among others, young age, male sex, unemployment, not living with a spouse, and specific long-term conditions. we recommend that patient-perceived treatment burden is included when evaluating interventions targeting patients with long-term conditions and multimorbidity and health- care system reorganisations

The centre of the device. the lamp has a dome covered with a reflective, protective coating. three metal carriers were placed at the maximum distance from the uv-c lamp in three different positions and tested at 30 and 60 seconds 3 times. the carriers were inoculated with 100 m l of sars-cov-2 viral suspension with a concentration of 106.5 tcid50 /ml. after treatment, laboratory procedures were used to transfer the treated virus from carriers to multiwell plates. the samples were compared with positive controls (not exposed to uv-c light) after incubation, at 37 c in 5% coo ˜ in a humidified atmosphere, for 3 days. the residual viral activity was tested by assessing the 50% infectious dose per tissue culture (tcid50%). results: tests performed at 30 seconds of uv-c irradiation show an average viral reduction of 4.0 log10 (99.99%). all three tests performed at 60 seconds reached the maximum measurable log10 viral reduction: 5.0 log10 (99.999%). conclusions: the study assessed effectiveness of device in significantly reducing the viral load on all carriers regardless exposure time and distance from the uv-c light source, with no impact on the level of environmental pollution. key messages: uv-c light has the property of inactivating viral growth; its physical approach is considered a good compromise between cost and effectiveness. the device was effective in disinfecting all small everyday objects tested
