How to increase Covid-19 vaccination among a population with persistently suboptimal vaccine uptake? Evidence from the North Macedonia mobile vaccination and public health advice caravan
Over three years since the first COVID-19 vaccine was approved, many countries still have suboptimal vaccination rates despite holding great amounts of vaccines. Overall, there is little evidence on which policies are more effective to encourage vaccination, particularly in countries where a large share of the population remains unvaccinated. In this study, we examine the effectiveness of a community-based intervention carried out in March 2022 i…
Values Underpinning Integrated, People-Centred Health Services
The study found that all 18 values in the set are considered important by the respondents. Additionally, it revealed distinctions in emphasis among the values prioritised by actor groups and across sub-regions. The study uncovered two clusters of values that contribute to a conceptually based definition of integrated, people-centred health services
Investment or Overkill
This study examines whether accreditation of military child development centers (CDCs) pays off in a context of rigorous quality standards and aggressive compliance monitoring under the Military Child Care Act (MCCA) of 1989. To collect information about the value of accreditation, we reviewed accreditation standards and inspection documents, fielded a military-wide survey of child development directors, and conducted one-on-one interviews at fou…
The Importance of Child-Care Characteristics to Choice of Care
This article examines the influence of importance ratings of intrinsic and extrinsic characteristics of child care on parents' choice of care, using data from the National Longitudinal Survey-72. We find that parents who value developmental characteristics of care chose center care and that parents for whom hours, location, and cost of care are important chose care at home. Choice of family day care increased if parents thought it was important t…
Military Child Care
This study investigates the problems facing military child care and makes recommendations about how to improve the effectiveness of the military child care system. To collect information about military child care, we interviewed Department of Defense (DoD) policymakers and people in some way connected with child care on 16 military installations. We found that due to multiple and often inconsistent child care goals, the provision of services was …
Child care and children's illness
This paper uses nationally representative data from the Child Health Supplement of the 1981 National Health Interview Survey to test the hypothesis that the larger the groups in which children receive care, the more days per year they spend in bed due to illness. We estimate a model of annual bed days for children ages six months to two and one-half years old, and separately for children two and one-half to five years old. Our results show signif…
