Exploring the attitudes of solid organ transplant recipients towards COVID-19 shielding communications and the language of ‘clinically extremely vulnerable’: a qualitative study in... by Jason Ali, Dominic Summers, Abbie E Greig, Kirsten L Rennie

“…These communications were perceived as implying that death was probable, or even inevitable, should they leave their home or fail to follow the official advice. Participants expressed widespread dislike for the term ‘CEV’, with the word ‘vulnerable’ being particularly difficult for participants to accept owing to its connotations of weakness and the reminder that participants were not as ‘normal’ as they typically felt. …”

Large-scale spatio-temporal variation in vital rates and population dynamics of an alpine bird by Nater, Chloé R., Frassinelli, Francesco, Martin, James A., Nilsen, Erlend B.

“…However, this requires field sampling at large spatial extents and over long periods of time, which is not only prohibitively costly but often politically untenable. Participatory monitoring programs (also called citizen science programmes) can alleviate these constraints by recruiting stakeholders and the public to increase the spatial and temporal resolution of sampling effort and hence resulting data. …”
