Chikungunya clinical management guidance
Chikungunya virus poses a significant public health challenge in Indonesia. Robust surveillance and diagnostics are lacking, and clinical management guidelines (CMGs) are absent. This practice article draws on insights from a qualitative health system stakeholder study conducted in Jakarta and Bali, Indonesia. The study examined barriers to the development and implementation of chikungunya CMGs. Findings reveal critical gaps in knowledge, diagnos…
Availability, scope and quality of monkeypox clinical management guidelines globally
A novel coronavirus outbreak of global health concern
An evidence-based framework for priority clinical research questions for Covid-19
BACKGROUND: On 31 December, 2019, the World Health Organization China Country Office was informed of cases of pneumonia of unknown aetiology. Since then, there have been over 75 000 cases globally of the 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19), 2000 deaths, and over 14 000 cases recovered. Outbreaks of novel agents represent opportunities for clinical research to inform real-time public health action. In 2018, we conducted a systematic review to identi…
Global health security
The Ebola virus disease outbreak in West Africa was unprecedented in both its scale and impact. Out of this human calamity has come renewed attention to global health security--its definition, meaning, and the practical implications for programmes and policy. For example, how does a government begin to strengthen its core public health capacities, as demanded by the International Health Regulations? What counts as a global health security concern…
A dengue outbreak on a floating village at Cat Ba Island in Vietnam
Our study showed that dengue transmission is unlikely to be sustained on Cat Ba Island and that the 2013 epidemic likely originated through introduction of viruses from the mainland, potentially Hanoi. These findings suggest that prevention efforts should be focused on mainland rather than on the island
A household survey on screening practices of household contacts of smear positive tuberculosis patients in Vietnam
The low proportion of household TB contacts screened for TB illustrates the limitations of passive contact screening as currently practiced in Vietnam. Children under 5 years of age are particularly neglected with this approach. Active contact screening with fixed follow-up times of close contacts of newly diagnosed TB patients should be considered in Vietnam, particularly in case of young children and drug-resistant TB
Antibiotic use and resistance in emerging economies
Future legislation regarding antibiotic access must alter incentives for purchasers and providers and ensure effective enforcement. The Ministry of Health recently initiated a national action plan and approved a multicenter health improvement project to strengthen national capacity for antimicrobial stewardship in Viet Nam. This analysis provided important input to these initiatives. Our methodologies and findings may be of use to others across t…
Factors associated with nosocomial Sars-CoV transmission among healthcare workers in Hanoi, Vietnam, 2003
This study highlights job categories and activities associated with increased risk for SARS-CoV infection and demonstrates that a broad diversity of hospital workers may be vulnerable during an outbreak. These findings may help guide recommendations for the protection of vulnerable occupational groups and may have implications for other respiratory infections such as influenza
