Vaccine hesitancy in conflict-affected Ukraine
“A single viral video can undo months of health education”
This study examines vaccine hesitancy in wartime Ukraine, where institutional mistrust, displacement, and emotional trauma reshape parental decision-making. Drawing on in-depth interviews with mothers and pediatric professionals, we explore how caregivers navigate immunization choices amid disrupted health systems, contested information environments, and weakened trust in state and international actors. We frame hesitancy not as a static or irrat…
Mapping war trauma
This paper presents a predictive modeling system based on the use of GeoAI to estimate mental health outcomes of wartime in Ukrainian cities, utilizing spatially linked data on the environment, infrastructure, and conflict. Six self-reported psychological outcomes, symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder, or PSD, anxiety, depression, insomnia, loneliness, and sleep duration, were collected in surveys throughout the war and analyzed in the cont…
Sleep Duration, Insomnia, and Associated Factors Among Ukrainians 1 Year After Russia’s Full-Scale Invasion
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to investigate the prevalence of sleep disturbances and associated factors among Ukrainians 1 year after Russia's full-scale invasion. METHODS: Quota sampling was used to collect online survey data from 2364 adults living in Ukraine aged 18 to 79 years from April 5, 2023, to May 15, 2023. Short sleep duration was defined as sleep duration ≤6 hours and long sleep duration as ≥9 hours. Insomnia was assessed by the Insomnia Sympt…
A Comparison of Ukrainian Hospital Services and Functions Before and During the Russia-Ukraine War
The ongoing war has inflicted profound devastation on Ukraine's hospitals. The findings of this cross-sectional survey offer valuable insights into the formidable challenges that hospitals confront in war-affected regions and underscore the pressing necessity for bolstering support to sustain and enhance hospital services during wartime
The human toll and humanitarian crisis of the Russia-Ukraine war
BACKGROUND: We examined the human toll and subsequent humanitarian crisis resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which began on 24 February 2022. METHOD: We extracted and analysed data resulting from Russian military attacks on Ukrainians between 24 February and 4 August 2022. The data tracked direct deaths and injuries, damage to healthcare infrastructure and the impact on health, the destruction of residences, infrastructure, communica…
Outdoor thermal comfort and somatic symptoms among students in a tropical city
Rapid urbanization has induced the urban heat island phenomenon which threatens the urban environment and the well-being of communities within it. The prevalence of physical and mental problems associated with hot weather has shown an upward trend recently. However, literature revealed a scarcity of urban health statistics, especially in hot-humid tropical cities. Thus, through this study, we aim to: (1) assess the outdoor thermal comfort of part…
Development and Comparison of Dengue Vulnerability Indices Using GIS-Based Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis in Lao PDR and Thailand
Dengue is a continuous health burden in Laos and Thailand. We assessed and mapped dengue vulnerability in selected provinces of Laos and Thailand using multi-criteria decision approaches. An ecohealth framework was used to develop dengue vulnerability indices (DVIs) that explain links between population, social and physical environments, and health to identify exposure, susceptibility, and adaptive capacity indicators. Three DVIs were constructed…
Ecological, Social, and Other Environmental Determinants of Dengue Vector Abundance in Urban and Rural Areas of Northeastern Thailand
Aedes aegypti is the main vector of dengue globally. The variables that influence the abundance of dengue vectors are numerous and complex. This has generated a need to focus on areas at risk of disease transmission, the spatial-temporal distribution of vectors, and the factors that modulate vector abundance. To help guide and improve vector-control efforts, this study identified the ecological, social, and other environmental risk factors that a…
The Disproportionate Impact of Covid-19 among Undocumented Immigrants and Racial Minorities in the US
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus responsible for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), has had an unprecedented effect, especially among under-resourced minority communities. Surveillance of those at high risk is critical for preventing and controlling the pandemic. We must better understand the relationships between COVID-19-related cases or deaths and characteristics in our most vulnerable population that p…
Dengue Seroprevalence and Seroconversion in Urban and Rural Populations in Northeastern Thailand and Southern Laos
Dengue is the most rapidly spreading mosquito-borne viral disease in the world. The detection of clinical cases enables us to measure the incidence of dengue infection, whereas serological surveys give insights into the prevalence of infection. This study aimed to determine dengue seroprevalence and seroconversion rates in northeastern Thailand and southern Laos and to assess any association of mosquito control methods and socioeconomic factors w…
