COVID-19 was a nightmare in humankind's history that challenged our advanced medical technology. All credit goes to the researchers who played a crucial role in curbing COVID-19 and proved our medical technology supremacy. However, COVID-19 has left some mysterious scars on human well-being. It is believed that COVID-19 has a significant negative impact on various cardiovascular (CVS) and central nervous system (CNS) diseases, especially in the case of CNS diseases like Alzheimer's. Surprisingly, COVID-19 affects the respiratory system, whereas Alzheimer's disease (AD) alters brain function. To explain this phenomenon, several hypotheses were proposed, but the mechanism needs to be clearly understood. Another critical thing to be concerned about is that COVID-19 will worsen pre-existing conditions and lead to the onset of AD. In the race to curb COVID-19, the invention of vaccines was speeded up, and it is necessary to fight against COVID-19. However, postvaccination follow-up is mandatory when an individual is a victim of AD. In this review article, we compiled the various dreadful effects of the COVID-19 virus on AD, the Post effects of the virus on AD, and the effect of the COVID-19 vaccination on AD. This article provides a new direction for research concerning COVID-19 and AD.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic prompted a shift in healthcare delivery, necessitating the rapid adoption of technology, including telerehabilitation. This study focused on understanding the current perspectives and experiences of hand therapists in Canada and the United States regarding implementation of telerehabilitation in hand therapy, traditionally reliant on in-person interactions.
Purpose: The study aimed to assess the utilization, perceptions, and barriers of telerehabilitation among hand therapists, providing insights into challenges and opportunities for incorporation into practices.

The COVID-19 pandemic severely influenced human behavior due to governmental restrictions. In addition to administrative restrictions, other factors, like historical disease prevalence and culture might impact on recent behavior. The parasite stress theory of values and sociality predicts an influence of historical diseases on human culture and may be of important influence on current human behavioral responses towards the pandemic.

Background: Healthcare workers (HCWs) face substantial daily work-related pressures, leading to frequent reports of depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms.
Objective: To compare the effects of Self-Help Plus in its digital version Doing What Matters in Times of Stress (DWM) to an equally structured activity in reducing anxiety and/or PTSD symptoms among HCWs.
Methods: We compared the proportion of participants with moderate-to-severe anxiety (General Anxiety Disorder Scale; GAD-7 ≥10) and/or PTSD symptoms (Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R)) ≥26) between DWM and the alternative activity.

Background: Survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) decreased sharply in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is unknown if survival recovered to pre-pandemic levels, or how recovery varied by community racial and ethnic composition.
Methods: We analyzed adults with non-traumatic OHCA from 2015-2022 in the Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival using multivariable regression models with generalized estimation equations to calculate risk-adjusted rates of survival to discharge during 2015-2019 (pre-pandemic period) versus 2020, 2021, and 2022.
