Perceptions of tuberculosis and home-based infection screening among families and providers in Madagascar
Improving communication about TB and implementing a home-based screening strategy for HHCs to identify individuals at high risk of TB progression have the potential to improve TB control in Madagascar
Impact of hypertension on mortality in adults in Moramanga, Madagascar
Hypertension is associated with higher risks of premature death in the community of Moramanga. In addition, hypertension contributes not only to mortality via cardiovascular diseases, but also through all causes combined. The health system should enhance prevention efforts, particularly for young hypertensive patients, when risk is most pronounced
African Countries From the Pasteur Network Reexamine Their Syndromic Sentinel Surveillance System Associated With Household Contact Within the Afroscreen Program
Surveillance to better detect and respond to new pathogens remains a major challenge for global public health. The Pasteur Network recently held a brainstorming workshop located in Cameroon attended by Pasteur epidemiological teams from Niger, Central African Republic (CAR), Cameroon, Senegal, and Madagascar to discuss how the Pasteur Network in Africa could use the lessons of COVID-19 to set-up a pilot sentinel surveillance scheme given its expe…
Excess mortality associated with the Covid-19 pandemic during the 2020 and 2021 waves in Antananarivo, Madagascar
INTRODUCTION: COVID-19-associated mortality remains difficult to estimate in sub-Saharan Africa because of the lack of comprehensive systems of death registration. Based on death registers referring to the capital city of Madagascar, we sought to estimate the excess mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic and calculate the loss of life expectancy. METHODS: Death records between 2016 and 2021 were used to estimate weekly excess mortality during the…
Determinants of Covid-19-related knowledge and disrupted habits during epidemic waves among women of childbearing age in urban and rural areas of the Malagasy Middle East
Almost a third of the sampled women of childbearing age had a good level of knowledge of COVID-19. Access to information through telecommunications technologies increases the chances of being better informed about the disease. To avoid the negative repercussions of infectious disease epidemics, it is necessary to improve the awareness of childbearing women about these diseases by taking demographic features of the population into account
