Understanding perceptions towards Covid-19 vaccination and strategies to increase vaccine uptake among Ebola- affected communities in North Kivu, Democratic Republic of the Congo: A qualitative study
These findings add to growing evidence on how prior exposure to another disease of international concern (Ebola) and the associated vaccine, as well as historical context, influence perceptions of novel vaccines. Community engagement and tailored communication to address community concerns and misinformation are essential to building trust. Policymakers and implementers should consider more innovative approaches for developing and implementing va…
Perceptions toward Ebola vaccination and correlates of vaccine uptake among high-risk community members in North Kivu, Democratic Republic of the Congo
The tenth Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak (2018–2020, North Kivu, Ituri, South Kivu) in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) was the second-largest EVD outbreak in history. During this outbreak, Ebola vaccination was an integral part of the EVD response. We evaluated community perceptions toward Ebola vaccination and identified correlates of Ebola vaccine uptake among high-risk community members in North Kivu, DRC. In March 2021, a cross…
Ebola vaccine uptake and attitudes among healthcare workers in North Kivu, Democratic Republic of the Congo, 2021
Introduction: During the 2018-2020 Ebola virus disease (EVD) outbreak in the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), prevention and control measures, such as Ebola vaccination were challenging by community mistrust. We aimed to understand perceptions regarding Ebola vaccination and identify determinants of Ebola vaccine uptake among HCWs. Methods: In March 2021, we conducted a cross-sectional survey among 438 HCWs from 100 ran…
Clinical progression and outcomes of patients hospitalized with Covid-19 in humanitarian settings: A prospective cohort study in South Sudan and Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo
Little information is available on COVID-19 in Africa and virtually none is from humanitarian and more resource-constrained settings. This study characterizes hospitalized patients in the African humanitarian contexts of Juba, South Sudan and North and South Kivu in Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. This observational cohort was conducted between December 2020 and June 2021. Patients presenting for care at five facilities or referred from…
Coincidence of diabetes mellitus and hypertension in a semi-urban Cameroonian population: A cross-sectional study
Coincident diabetes and hypertension is as high as diabetes alone in this population, driven by sex, age and adiposity. Awareness, treatment and control remain unacceptably low
