Identifying gaps in immunization documentation and addressing potential barriers to medical access can inform more effective community-based prevention programs.

Influenza H5N1 Gastroenteritis Transmission dynamics Journal article https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1186-s12879-022-07734-3-0d428136/ https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1186-s12879-022-07734-3-0d428136/ Mon, 19 Sep 2022 00:00:00 GMT The authors frame pretreatment resistance, especially NNRTI resistance, as relevant to antiretroviral treatment planning and ongoing surveillance in this border prefecture. The article is also indexed under surveillance, transmission dynamics, and treatment topics, which supports its public-health and epidemiologic context. AIDS Treatment Transmission dynamics Surveillance Cross-sectional study https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1371-journal-pmed-1003542-1664a150/ https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1371-journal-pmed-1003542-1664a150/ Thu, 04 Mar 2021 00:00:00 GMT The operational forecasting system demonstrates that dengue outbreaks can be predicted with sufficient lead time (up to three months) to inform dengue control activities and public health planning. Predictions align with key Vietnamese decision and planning deadlines, and the system showed added value compared to previous practice of not using forecasts.

It also describes HEV-C as a potential concern for blood product safety, without providing population-level risk estimates.

The map provides an initial evidence base for surveillance prioritization in malaria-eliminating countries.
