  • Vaccination concerns, beliefs and practices among Ukrainian migrants in Poland

    Open AccessMaria Gańczak, Klaudia Bielecki et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    This study pinpointed positive UM attitudes and practices regarding child vaccination in the Polish healthcare system and identified issues for improvement, such as adult vaccination. Health communication should be more tailored within UMs information delivery systems to enable migrants to make informed choices about vaccination. Further research is needed to better assess factors affecting vaccine uptake identified in this study

  • Impact of an influenza information pamphlet on vaccination uptake among Polish pupils in Edinburgh, Scotland and the role of social media in parental decision making

    Open AccessKlaudia Bielecki, J Craig et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2020

    These findings suggest that issuing new Polish health literature was associated with a large increase in consent form return rate and a modest increase in uptake of the influenza vaccine by Polish pupils in the pilot schools. Social media and Polish websites were found to have a greater influence over Polish parents' decision to immunise than UK healthcare staff and health authority information. Intensive effort is required to encourage parents t…

    Lorna Grant, Elizabeth Grant et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2008

    Antiretroviral therapy is increasingly available in African communities. We set out to gain patient perceptions on factors that facilitate and challenge access and adherence to such therapy. We carried out two semi-structured interviews 12 months apart with 40 HIV-positive people drawn from three economically deprived townships in the Copperbelt, Zambia. We also conducted a focus group of 12 of these interviewees. Availability of medication in he…

  • Substance use and unsafe sex amongst homosexual men in Edinburgh

    D J Clutterbuck, Dan Clutterbuck et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2001

    A self-reported behaviour survey using an anonymous critical incident based questionnaire was administered by trained interviewers in 1998. Five hundred and thirty-one homosexual and bisexual men were recruited from gay bars, clubs, cafes, a sauna and 'cruising ground' in central Edinburgh. The use of alcohol and recreational drugs and details of sexual activity over the preceding three months and at the last sexual encounter were recorded. Unsaf…
