Objectives The number of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) cases is increasing in Bangladesh. Many people have suffered from symptoms like COVID-19 during this pandemic, and some people have cured without taking any treatment or taking minor pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments. However, they might be spreading their infections among their family members and perhaps in the community. It is unsure that individuals with COVID-19-like symptoms are positive with COVID-19, but our concern is, during this pandemic, any types of symptoms such as flu-like symptoms should have been taken seriously. This study was observed in the cases from three families with COVID-19 like symptoms. Case presentation This observational study was done between May 20 and Jun 2, 2020, in Bangladesh. The members of the inspected families shared COVID-19 like symptoms that were lasted for 3-10 days. Conclusions COVID-19 might be spread and cured silently in Bangladesh, which recommends that awareness is needed throughout the country to prevent the spreading of the disease.

Aging Research Center, Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University, Stockholm, Sweden.
Background: Worldwide, ∽40% of dementia cases are preventable by interventions to target major modifiable risk factors. In the multimodal interventions to delay dementia and disability in rural China (MIND-China), we aim to test the effect of multimodal intervention programs on maintaining cognitive and physical function among rural-dwelling older adults and discuss about challenges and opportunities for a multidomain intervention study in a rural population.
Method: MIND-China targets people who are aged 60-79 years and living in rural communities (52 villages) in Shandong.
