This study aimed to identify the social and behavioural drivers of routine childhood immunisation and preferred caregiver information sources to improve uptake in the Philippines. METHODS: A quantitative, cross-sectional study…

Critical medical ecology and intersectionality perspectives in schistosomiasis prevention and control in selected communities in Mindanao, the Philippines
Schistosomiasis japonica remains a public health concern in many areas of the Philippines.

The study employed a qualitative case study design. Key infor…

In vi…
