Sex Trafficking as a Public Health Crisis
The World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes human trafficking as a public health issue, yet this perspective has rarely been adopted in Africa, especially in Nigeria. Our research investigates healthcare for sex-trafficking survivors within Nigeria’s health system, focusing on identifying specific illnesses they face and the interactions between them and the healthcare system. This study involved 26 respondents, representing sex trafficking su…
Referral experiences of healthcare consumers
Introduction: The inadequate referral system in Nigeria is partly due to the proliferation of informal healthcare providers (IHPs) and constraints within formal providers in urban slums. With limited data on patient referral experiences across these providers, this paper explores referral experiences in urban slums in southeast Nigeria. Methods: This study involved 1,025 people in eight slums in Enugu and Anambra states, using multi-stage purposi…

Limited information is therefore available on the impact of the lockdown on point prevalence in the community. We assessed COVID-19 point prevalence in London between early April and early May 2020, which approximately reflect infection around …
