Timely vaccination with valid doses in a high coverage country, Oman
Oman achieves high vaccination coverage; however, a noteworthy number of children receive invalid doses. This highlights the urgent need to educate parents and healthcare providers on timely administration of valid doses. Assessing mild illnesses and promptly administering vaccinations can improve complete vaccination rates with valid doses
Treatment outcomes 12 months after antiretroviral therapy initiation in Oman
We used routinely collected programme data on people living with HIV in Oman who started ART in 2014-2018 to assess retention on ART, viral suppression, attrition (mortality or loss to follow-up [LTFU]) and treatment failure (attrition or HIV viral load of > 1000 copies/mL) 12 months after antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation. We identified 726 patients; 72% were male. Overall, 12 months retention on ART and viral suppression (intention-to-tre…
Retention in HIV care and factors associated with loss to follow-up in Oman
We conducted a cross-sectional analysis to determine the rate of retention in HIV care and the factors associated with loss to follow-up (LTFU) among Omani adults living with HIV who were linked to care as of 31 December 2019. Patients (n = 1610) were identified from a central national HIV surveillance dataset. The majority (68.3%) of patients were male, and the median age was 39 years (IQR, 31–48 years). A total of 1480 patient (91.9%) were reta…
Challenges and Opportunities for Public Health Service in Oman From the Covid-19 Pandemic
Despite the apparent challenges inflicted by COVID-19 globally, the pandemic provided an opportunity to utilize and expand existing public health capacities for a more adaptive and resilient system during and after each wave of the disease. This paper provides a narrative review of Oman's public health response to the COVID-19 pandemic from January 2020 to July 2021, and the challenges it faced for a more rapid and efficient response. The review …
The Impact of Mobility Restriction Strategies in the Control of the Covid-19 Pandemic
Evening lockdown significantly affected the course of the pandemic in Oman which lines up with similar studies throughout the world
Predictors of late presentation and advanced HIV disease among people living with HIV in Oman (2000–2019)
This analysis indicates that a significant proportion of new HIV cases in Oman continue to present late. This study identified patient subgroups at greatest risk of late HIV diagnosis such as men and older people. Targeted interventions and greater efforts to scale up HIV testing services in Oman are needed
