Assessing mpox knowledge and sexual behaviours within high-risk populations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo
BACKGROUND: Historically, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has faced the greatest public health burden from mpox, including more than 70 000 probable cases from 1 January 2024 to 2 February 2025. However, there has been a relative paucity of investigation focused on mpox community engagement in DRC, including assessments of disease knowledge and risk perception. METHODS: Given the ongoing Clade I mpox public health emergency of internat…
A peer-educator driven approach for sampling populations at increased mpox risk in the Democratic Republic of the Congo
The epidemiological risk factors associated with mpox acquisition and severity in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) are changing. We assessed perceived mpox risk, and behavioral, clinical and sexual histories among key populations at risk of acquisition through sexual contact. Here, we describe a sampling strategy to enroll participants considered to be at increased risk for mpox infection - men who have sex with men (MSM) and sex worker…
Illegal Wildlife Trade in a Tourism and Biodiversity Hotspot
There are clear connections between tourism, development, and sustainable use—particularly in biodiversity hotspots, where tourists may unknowingly purchase souvenirs made from protected wildlife. This issue is explicitly recognized in the Sustainable Development Goals, including SDG15, Life on Land, and SDG16, Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions. On the island of Bali, a premier tourist destination with a strong local Hindu culture, we asses…
Political engagement
Immunisation is a high priority for improving health outcomes. Yet, in many low-income and middle-income countries, achieving coverage targets independently is hindered by lack of domestic resources and reliance on partners’ support. Both the 2001 Abuja Declaration and 2016 Addis Declaration were key political commitments to improving immunisation coverage; however, many signatories have yet to meet international targets. Despite signing the Glob…
The time is now (again) for mpox containment and elimination in Democratic Republic of the Congo
sponsorship: This work was supported by the International Mpox Research Consortium (IMReC) through funding from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and International Development Research Centre (grant no. MRR-184813 to JK, PMK); Department of Defense, Defense Threat Reduction Agency (Monkeypox Threat Reduction Network grant #HDTRA1-21-1-0040 to AWR). The funders had no role in study design, data collection and analysis, decision to publish…
An evidence review of face masks against Covid-19
The science around the use of masks by the public to impede COVID-19 transmission is advancing rapidly. In this narrative review, we develop an analytical framework to examine mask usage, synthesizing the relevant literature to inform multiple areas: population impact, transmission characteristics, source control, wearer protection, sociological considerations, and implementation considerations. A primary route of transmission of COVID-19 is via …
Monkeypox Rash Severity and Animal Exposures in the Democratic Republic of the Congo
Seven Reasons to Care About Racism and Covid-19 and Seven Things to Do to Stop It
Varicella Coinfection in Patients with Active Monkeypox in the Democratic Republic of the Congo
Human Exposure to Wild Animals in the Sankuru Province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo
Failure to Detect Simian Immunodeficiency Virus Infection in a Large Cameroonian Cohort with High Non-human Primate Exposure
Using Remote Sensing to Map the Risk of Human Monkeypox Virus in the Congo Basin
Although the incidence of human monkeypox has greatly increased in Central Africa over the last decade, resources for surveillance remain extremely limited. We conducted a geospatial analysis using existing data to better inform future surveillance efforts. Using active surveillance data collected between 2005 and 2007, we identified locations in Sankuru district, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) where there have been one or more cases of human…
