FluTracking during the Covid-19 pandemic
FluTracking Australia is one of the largest online participatory surveillance systems worldwide. Here, we share our learnings from the experience of leading FluTracking during the COVID-19 pandemic. We theorise that awareness and utilisation of our learnings will lead to participatory surveillance having a greater influence upon future health policy, practice, and research. The FluTracking team came together in a series of meetings held between J…
Assessing the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on uptake of HIV treatment in Bandung and Yogyakarta, Indonesia
COVID-19 pandemic known to affect health service deliveries including for HIV care support and treatment. In this retrospective study involving 2,780 people living with HIV (PLHIV), we evaluated impact of COVID-19 pandemic by comparing the proportion of PLHIV linked to care, started antiretroviral therapy (ART), retained in care (within the first 3 months of treatment), and adhered to ART (within the first 3 months of treatment) between the pre-p…
Mortality among 5 to 19-year-olds in rural Mali
The unique healthcare needs of 5 to 9-year-olds and adolescents (10 – 19 years) in low- and middle-income countries have been largely neglected. We generated estimates of 5 to 9-year-old and adolescent mortality in rural Mali, a setting with high under-five mortality, and aimed to define associated individual and household risk factors. We analysed cross-sectional baseline household survey data from the ProCCM trial (NCT02694055) conducted in Ban…
Evaluation of the SKILLZ intervention to promote HIV testing and contraception uptake in adolescent girls in Lusaka, Zambia
Adolescent girls are at disproportionately high-risk for HIV and unintended pregnancy. Effective interventions to increase uptake of HIV testing and contraceptives are urgently needed. Our cluster-randomized controlled trial in 46 schools in Lusaka, Zambia evaluated the SKILLZ intervention: (a) 12 after-school sessions of sexuality and sexual and reproductive health (SRH) education culminating in a community “graduation” soccer event where a pop-…
Understanding the financial hardships faced by TB and HIV patients during the Covid-19 pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic had significant widespread financial impacts, resulting in decreased household income, increased unemployment, and disrupted health services. Despite the higher prevalence of infections of tuberculosis (TB) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in poorer populations, research on the financial challenges faced by these populations during the pandemic is still limited. Indonesia recorded the highest COVID-19 cases in Southeas…
Cost-effectiveness analysis of proactive home visits compared with site-based community health worker care on antenatal care outcomes in Mali
INTRODUCTION: Despite recommendations from the WHO, antenatal care (ANC) coverage remains low in many low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). Community health workers (CHWs) can play an important role in expanding ANC coverage through pregnancy identification, provision of health education, screening for complications, delivery of therapeutic care and referral to higher levels of care. However, despite the success of CHW programmes in var…
“I pity the TB patient”
INTRODUCTION: In Indonesia, a country with around 280 million people and the second-highest tuberculosis (TB) incidence rate in the world, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on TB care needs careful assessment so that future response strategies can be strengthened. We conducted a study comparing TB testing and treatment rates before and during the first 2 years of the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia, and the reasons for any disruptions to care. M…

Supply-side readiness to deliver HIV testing and treatment services in Indonesia
Introduction Despite national efforts to integrate Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT) of HIV services into antenatal care in Indonesia, the rate of mother-to-child transmission of HIV remains the highest in the world. A range of barriers to uptake and long-term engagement in care have been identified, but far less is known about health system preparedness to deliver PMTCT of HIV services. This study explored supply-side barriers t…
Considering whether countries participating in clinical trials can afford the intervention
Clinical trials often recruit from a diverse array of countries to help researchers understand the generalizability of their intervention. The economic circumstances in participating countries may vary substantially. This raises the issue of whether the intervention, even if proven to be effective and cost-effective in wealthy countries, would be cost-effective among resource-limited participant countries. It is only fair that states who help est…
Household factors and under-five mortality in Bankass, Mali
U5 mortality is very high in Bankass and is associated with living a greater distance from healthcare and several other household factors that may be amenable to intervention or facilitate program targeting
Cigarette Pack Prices and Sales Following Policy Changes in California, 2011–2018
Objectives. To estimate the combined effect of California’s Tobacco 21 law (enacted June 2016) and $2-per-pack cigarette excise tax increase (enacted April 2017) on cigarette prices and sales, compared with matched comparator states. Methods. We used synthetic control methods to compare cigarette prices and sales after the policies were enacted, relative to what we would have expected without the policy reforms. To estimate the counterfactual, we…
