As the most divisive American presidential race in recent history barrels toward a close, many Americans have developed what Wendy Parmet, an expert in public health law at Northeastern University, calls “amnesia” about the coronavirus pandemic.

Amílcar Antonio Barreto, a Northeastern University professor whose work has focused on Puerto Rico and Latinos in the U.S., told Newsweek that Trump’s “anti-Latino rhetoric in general, and utter disrespect for Puerto Ricans in particular, is nothing new.”

Dan Kennedy, a journalism professor at Northeastern University, said media owners were engaging in “anticipatory obedience.”

She was venting to her counselor about the stress of waiting for college decisions when the message from Northeastern University Oakland arrived in her inbox — she had gotten into a new partner program between the university and Oakland Unified School District offering admission and funding for four years of college.

Costas Panagopoulos, a professor of political science at Northeastern University, told Newsweek that national polls “basically show a tight race, generally within the margin of error” and battleground polls “look similar.”

“When we see a price like [a $20 sofa], it’s a red flag that maybe there’s some part of the supply chain for that product where we need to do further investigation,” says Shawn Bhimani, an assistant professor in supply chain and information management at Northeastern University.

This increase is likely due to a combination of factors, including failures in sanitation and compliance throughout the supply chain, as well as improved detection methods and stricter safety measures that have led to more effective identification of foodborne illness outbreaks and contamination incidents,” Darin Detwiler, a food safety advisor and professor at Northeastern University, told HuffPost.

“Almost all reputable polls show a tied race, especially when the margins of error are taken into account. The same is true in most battleground states,” Costas Panagopoulos, a professor of political science at Northeastern University, told Newsweek on Sunday.

“If you look at just the sheer number of outbreaks and recalls over the last 15 years, we typically see more cases of E. coli tied to produce,” said Darin Detwiler, a professor of food regulatory policy at Northeastern University.

Costas Panagopoulos, a political science professor at Northeastern University, said the trends reflect continuity rather than change on the issue.

Proper cooking is the only way to kill these pathogens, according to Darin Detweiller, associate teaching professor at Northeastern University.
