Rethinking immunization programs through the life course approach
The world continues to undergo a profound demographic shift toward increasing longevity –but quality of life is not improving correspondingly. At the same time, countries are taking stock of the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on national immunization programs. The pandemic exacerbated the declines in vaccination coverage for multiple vaccine-preventable diseases (VPD). To ensure that all persons receive all the vaccines for which they …
Institutional care in four Latin American countries: The importance of fostering public information and evaluation strategies
More than 8 million older people in Latin America depend on long-term care (LTC), accounting for 12% of people aged ≥ 60 years and almost 27% of those aged ≥ 80. It is crucial to develop sustainable strategies for providing LTC in the area, including institutional care. This special report aims to characterize institutional LTC in four countries (Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica and Mexico), using available information systems, and to identify the strat…

Le fer comme moyen de datation des bronzes khmers: Première approche de prélèvement in situ
Les avancées méthodologiques liées à la datation directe du fer par le carbone 14 ont récemment ouvert la voie à des découvertes significatives, que ce soit sur l’emploi du fer dans le bâti, ou encore sur l’organisation des réseaux de distribution des produits ferreux de la Protohistoire au Moyen Âge. L’approche de datation développée jusqu’à présent repose sur la nécessité de procéder en deux étapes : une pièce de métal est échantillonnée dans l…
Life expectancy, healthy life expectancy, and burden of disease in older people in the Americas, 1990–2019: A population-based study
The increase in life expectancy and decrease of DALYs indicate the positive effect of improvements in social conditions and health policies. However, the smaller increase in healthy life expectancy suggests that, despite living longer, people spend a substantial amount of time in their old age with disability and illness. Preventable and controllable diseases account for most of the disease burden in older adults in the Americas. Society-wide and…
Implementing long-term care systems in the Americas: A regional strategy
The Region of the Americas is facing accelerated demographic and epidemiological changes. As these trends will continue in future years, long-term care needs are expected to rise. How can countries respond to these challenges? We propose that countries in the Region should invest in the implementation of long-term care systems. Considering the heterogeneity in the Region, we propose a strategy based on three components: (i) understanding the prob…
Evidence-based programs for older persons in the Americas
In the current context of the aging of populations and the increase in multiple chronic conditions and dependence, it is important that health systems provide opportunities to improve capacities of older adults to enable healthy aging. Opportunities to enhance older adults’ abilities, including self-management, can be offered through evidence-based programs. Such programs have been proven effective in improving individuals’ symptoms and quality o…

Guard the Good Deposit’: Technology, Provenance and Dating of Bipyramidal Iron Semi‐Products of the Durrenentzen Deposit (Haut‐Rhin, France)
In the early days of iron metallurgy in Western Europe, the most widespread type of ‘trade iron’ (semi‐product) was bipyramidal in shape. Although they are frequently found, little is known about how they were manufactured and circulated, or even about their age. An interdisciplinary approach was applied to the Durrenentzen deposit (Haut‐Rhin, France), the third‐largest in Europe in terms of artefact quantities, in an attempt to reconstruct the t…
