The impact of COVID‐19 on public perceptions of wild meat in Central Africa

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Wild meat is a significant source of food and income generation in Central Africa. However, there is little knowledge of how the assumed link between COVID‐19 and wild meat consumption has been discussed by the media and received by the public. In this study, we conducted media content analysis of 264 articles published in 2019–2020 related to

Critical behavior of long straight rigid rods on two-dimensional lattices: Theory and Monte Carlo simulations

, 2008
The critical behavior of long straight rigid rods of length $k$ ($k$-mers) on square and triangular lattices at intermediate density has been studied. A nematic phase, characterized by a big domain of parallel $k$-mers, was found.
