Point-of-care HIV viral load testing in a community antiretroviral therapy delivery programme
Community antiretroviral therapy (ART) delivery programmes allow people with HIV (PWH) to collect treatment nearer to home instead of from clinics. However, delays in laboratory-based viral load (VL) testing can prevent timely community ART prescription renewals. We aimed to determine if clinic point-of-care VL testing could expedite community ART prescription renewals within the Centralised Chronic Medication Dispensing and Distribution programm…
Attending to Gyn‐Ecology
Previous social science research on gendered experiences of thrush and vulvovaginal health has overlooked, or inadvertently sanitised, the materiality of having a body. Therefore, this study aims to return attention to the material, sensorial, and corporeal dimensions of living with recurrent thrush and use this to broaden our understandings of gendered embodiment. We present findings from a qualitative study of interviews with 32 people includin…
Stakeholders’ views and experiences on implementing new diagnostics in primary care to support management of community-acquired acute respiratory tract infections
Background: The majority of antibiotics are prescribed in primary care for respiratory tract infections. Point-of-care tests (POCTs) for the management of community-acquired acute respiratory tract infections (CA-ARTI) have been developed to help optimize antibiotic prescribing. While some countries in Europe have adopted these tests in primary care settings, most have not. Stakeholders, such as policy-makers, regulators, the diagnostic industry,…
A Casino goes smoke free
Long-term smoking in a casino creates deep THS reservoirs that persist for months after a smoking ban. A complete smoking ban immediately improves air quality and significantly reduces exposure to SHS and THS. However, THS reservoirs contribute to continued low-level exposure to toxicants. To accelerate the effect of smoking bans, remediation efforts should address specific THS reservoirs, which may require intensive cleaning as well as replaceme…
‘You can't stay away from your family’
BACKGROUND: Migration of African-trained health workers to countries with higher health care worker densities adds to the severe shortage of health personnel in many African countries. Policy initiatives to reduce migration levels are informed by many studies exploring the reasons for the original decision to migrate. In contrast, there is little evidence to inform policies designed to facilitate health workers returning home or providing other f…
Security and skills
BACKGROUND: Migration of health workers from Africa continues to undermine the universal provision of quality health care. South Africa is an epicentre for migration--it exports more health workers to high-income countries than any other African country and imports health workers from its lower-income neighbours to fill the gap. Although an inter-governmental agreement in 2003 reduced the very high numbers migrating from South Africa to the Unite…
