  • The impact of Covid-19 vaccine distribution channels on equity-deserving populations

    Open AccessAlan Katz, Kris Aubrey-Bassler et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2026

    Uptake of COVID-19 vaccines among equity-deserving populations was a challenge throughout the Canadian vaccination campaign. This necessitated the implementation of vaccine distribution strategies that targeted specific populations. As a result, different vaccine channels were introduced in each province. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of COVID-19 vaccine distribution channels on short-term vaccination rates amongst equity-des…

  • Chronic Pain and Opioid Prescribing

    Abhimanyu Sud, Daniel Z Buchman et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2022Referencias: 68

    Clinically focused interventions for people living with pain, such as health professional education, clinical decision support systems, prescription drug monitoring programs, and multidisciplinary care to support opioid tapering, have all been promoted as important solutions to the North American opioid crisis.

  • Global Health Ethics for Students

    Open AccessAndrew D Pinto, Ross Upshur et al.ARTICLEDeveloping World Bioethics2009

    As a result of increased interest in global health, more and more medical students and trainees from the ‘developed world’ are working and studying in the ‘developing world’. However, while opportunities to do this important work increase, there has been insufficient development of ethical guidelines for students. It is often assumed that ethics training in developed world situations is applicable to health experiences globally. However, fundamen…

  • Dual Loyalty of Physicians in the Military and in Civilian Life

    Solomon R Benatar, Ross Upshur et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2008Citada por: 2Referencias: 25

    The concept of the dual loyalty physicians may have to both a patient and a third party is important in elucidating the obligations of physicians. The extent to which loyalty may be deflected from a patient to a third party (e.g., an insurance company or a prison commander) is greatly underestimated and has not attracted significant scholarly analysis. We examined dual loyalty in civilian and military contexts and used the principles of public he…

  • Evidence and Effectiveness in Decisionmaking for Quarantine

    Cécile M Bensimon, Ross Upshur et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2007Citada por: 5Referencias: 13

    When public health decisionmakers turned to quarantine during the recent severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic, difficult questions were raised about the legitimacy and acceptability of restrictive measures to attain public health goals. SARS also brought to light how scientific uncertainty can permeate public health decisionmaking, leading us to think about the relationship between the adequacy of evidence of the effectiveness of an …
