Connecting patients notified with hepatitis C to treatment (Connect Study)
This was the first prospective randomised study of the utility of immediate HCV notification follow-up of primary care practitioners to enhance treatment uptake using disease notification surveillance data. We demonstrated improvement in HCV RNA testing and trend toward better engagement in care, but no significant increase in treatment uptake
Measuring school level attributable risk to support school-based HPV vaccination programs
This analysis suggests that initiatives to support schools that are smaller, with a higher proportion of Indigenous adolescents and lower attendance rates may contribute most to reducing the variation of HPV vaccination uptake observed at a school-level in these jurisdictions. Estimating population-level coverage at the school-level is useful to guide policy and prioritise resourcing to support school-based vaccination programs
Towards tobacco-free retailers
Our study suggests that a non-regulatory intervention targeting low volume retailers to end tobacco sales may help to reduce the retail availability of tobacco
Public Health Messaging During Extreme Smoke Events
Background: Emergency services working to protect communities from harm during wildfires aim to provide regular public advisories on the hazards from fire and smoke. However, there are few studies evaluating the success of public health communications regarding the management of smoke exposure. We explored the responses to smoke-related health advisories of people living in a severely smoke-affected region during extensive wildfires in Tasmania, …
Why Tasmanian retailers stop selling tobacco and implications for tobacco control
This study provides insights into factors that make tobacco sales unattractive or unfeasible for low-volume outlets and may inform supply-focused tobacco control policy. A campaign that emphasises the possible business benefits of ending tobacco sales in favour of other higher-margin products may support retailers to transition away from tobacco sales. The regulatory obligations of selling tobacco are disincentives and create a less favourable re…
