Covid-19 vaccine acceptance and recommendation among health workers in nine countries
INTRODUCTION: Health workers (HWs) set an example for vaccine recipients, convey vaccine benefits and risks and interface with patients at increased risk for complications in pandemic settings. We explored HWs' acceptance of and recommendation for COVID-19 vaccine with and without previous receipt of seasonal influenza vaccine (SIV) in nine countries. METHODS: In 2023-2024, cross-sectional surveys among HW were conducted in Bangladesh, Cote d'Ivo…
Establishing seasonal and alert influenza thresholds in Morocco
We found that the threshold methodology presented in the WHO manual is simple to implement and easy to adopt for use by the Moroccan influenza surveillance system. The MEM method is more statistically sophisticated and may allow a better detection of the start of seasonal epidemics. Incorporation of virologic data into the composite parameter as recommended by WHO has the potential to increase the accuracy of seasonal threshold estimation
Evaluation of the influenza-like illness surveillance system in Tunisia, 2012–2015
The influenza surveillance system in Tunisia provided pertinent evidence for public health interventions related to influenza situational awareness. To better monitor influenza, we propose that ILI surveillance should be limited to sites that are currently performing well and the quality of data collected should be closely monitored and improved
