Abstract
- In Vol. 32, No. 3, our journal prepared 1 original article, 2 review articles, and 1 brief report. Space science need to be considered not only from the point of intellectual curiosity, but also from the profit. Space medicine is one of the core of national competitiveness, and gravity and cosmic radiation are major research areas in this field. The aftereffects of corona virus infection can affect aviation safety. An evaluation of this is essential before returning to the workplace. The first International Conference of Aerospace medicine 2022 was held in Paris. Various topics were discussed in depth. In particular, the inequality of corona virus vaccines supply, the application of digital health to tracking infected people, and the development of corona virus infection prediction algorithms were impressive. Japan and South Korea were compared for the current status of Zika virus. This difference appears to be mainly due to preferred travel destinations and their climates.
