    As main() is treated as a thread, i.e the "main" thread of the process, [11] calling pthread_barrier_wait() inside main() will block the whole process until other threads reach the barrier. The following example will use thread barrier, with pthread_barrier_wait() inside main(), to block the process/main thread for 5 seconds as waiting the 2 ...

    The word is a blend of "synergy" and "epidemics". The idea of syndemics is that no disease exists in isolation and that often population health can be understood through a confluence of factors (such as climate change or social inequality) that produces multiple health conditions that afflict some populations and not others.
