Knowledge, attitudes, and perceived barriers to seeking treatment for tuberculosis and diabetes in Ghana: A survey on world tuberculosis day
Background: The global tuberculosis (TB) burden remains high, though several interventions have been instituted to fight the TB epidemic. Community perception and understanding play a critical role in health-seeking behaviors, ultimately influencing the acceptance and effectiveness of control efforts. In observance of World Tuberculosis (TB) Day in 2022 and 2023, we engaged the community and sought their understanding of TB and diabetes mellitus …
Opinion review of drug resistant tuberculosis in West Africa: Tackling the challenges for effective control
Drug-resistant (DR) tuberculosis (TB) is a major public health concern globally, complicating TB control and management efforts. West Africa has historically faced difficulty in combating DR-TB due to limited diagnostic skills, insufficient access to excellent healthcare, and ineffective healthcare systems. This has aided in the emergence and dissemination of DR Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) strains in the region. In the past, DR-TB p…
Impact of Covid-19 lockdown measures on mother and child health – the case of Ghana
Government responded to COVID-19 using different strategies however the policy response resulted in both intended and unintended consequences especially for women and children in Ghana. It is recommended that national policy directions should ensure the continuous provision of child and maternal healthcare services which are essential health services during lockdowns
Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) in spatial planning for urban flood mitigation: The perspective of flood management experts in Accra
The rapid rate of urban expansion with its associated physical development in recent years conflicts with the urban ecosystem and the services it provides. In most Sub-Saharan African cities, rapid urban expansion often does not conform to existing spatial plans. Physical developments are sometimes carried out in unauthorized areas, contributing to urban floods. The Sub-Saharan African regions' flood management strategies mainly focus on engineer…
The Relevance of Genomic Epidemiology for Control of Tuberculosis in West Africa
Tuberculosis (TB), an airborne infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC), remains a global health problem. West Africa has a unique epidemiology of TB that is characterized by medium- to high-prevalence. Moreover, the geographical restriction of M. africanum to the sub-region makes West Africa have an extra burden to deal with a two-in-one pathogen. The region is also burdened with low case detection, late reporting, …
