  • Barriers to and facilitators of linkage to care following hypertension and diabetes screening among health workers in Zimbabwe

    Open AccessLeyla Sophie Larsson, Rudo MS Chingono et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    The benefits of screening for any condition are only realised if individuals who screen positive link to care services. We investigated linkage to hypertension and diabetes care by healthcare workers accessing a comprehensive health check service. We also explored facilitators and barriers to linkage to care. Between July 2020 and June 2022, a health check with referral and follow-up was offered to healthcare workers (clients) in Zimbabwe. We aim…

  • Evaluation of a comprehensive health check offered to frontline health workers in Zimbabwe

    Open AccessEdson Marambire, Rudo MS Chingono et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    Health workers are essential for a functioning healthcare system, and their own health is often not addressed. During the COVID-19 pandemic health workers were at high risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection whilst coping with increased healthcare demand. Here we report the development, implementation, and uptake of an integrated health check combining SARS-CoV-2 testing with screening for other communicable and non-communicable diseases for health workers …

  • Prevalence of chronic conditions and multimorbidity among healthcare workers in Zimbabwe

    Open AccessClaire Jacqueline Calderwood, Edson Marambire et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    The burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in southern Africa is expanding and is superimposed on high HIV prevalence. Healthcare workers are a scarce resource; yet are vital to health systems. There are very limited studies on the burden of chronic conditions among healthcare workers in Africa, and none exploring multimorbidity (≥2 chronic conditions). We describe the epidemiology of infectious (HIV) and non-communicable chronic conditions, …

  • How to (or how not to) implement crowdsourcing for the development of health interventions

    Open AccessEneyi E Kpokiri, Mwelwa M Phiri et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2024

    Crowdsourcing strategies are useful in the development of public health interventions. Crowdsourcing engages end users in a co-creation process through challenge contests, designathons or online collaborations. Drawing on our experience of crowdsourcing in four African countries, we provide guidance on designing crowdsourcing strategies across seven steps: deciding on the type of crowdsourcing strategy, convening a steering committee, developing …

  • Exploring Covid-19 vaccine uptake among healthcare workers in Zimbabwe

    Open AccessTinotenda Taruvinga, Rudo MS Chingono et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2023

    With COVID-19 no longer categorized as a public health emergency of international concern, vaccination strategies and priority groups for vaccination have evolved. Africa Centres for Diseases Prevention and Control proposed the ‘100-100-70%’ strategy which aims to vaccinate all healthcare workers, all vulnerable groups, and 70% of the general population. Understanding whether healthcare workers were reached during previous vaccination campaigns a…

  • Advances in Covid-19 research until November 2020

    Open AccessXiaomeng Zhang, Wei Xu et al.ARTICLEJournal of Global Health2021

    Since the declaration of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on 11 March 2020 by the WHO, an accumulated number of at least 70 461 926 confirmed cases and 1 599 704 deaths in 216 countries/ territories has been recorded by 14/12/2020 [1]. In line with the established WHO global research roadmap for COVID-19 [2], the UNCOVER (Usher Network for COVID-19 Evidence Reviews) group committed to summarise COVID-19 evidence-based reviews for poli…
