The Impact of COVID-19 Lockdown on Cases of and Deaths From AIDS, Gonorrhea, Syphilis, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C: Interrupted Time Series Analysis

Although some regions had eased restrictions before April 8 (when Wuhan lifted its restrictions), they tended to take stronger NPI measures to deal with the possible importation of COVID-19 cases from Wuhan. Based on these considerations, we defined the lockdown period as ending in April 2020. AIDS cases are defined as a diagnosis of AIDS. Syphilis cases include both primary and secondary syphilis.

Syndromic Surveillance Using Structured Telehealth Data: Case Study of the First Wave of COVID-19 in Brazil

Syndromic Surveillance Using Structured Telehealth Data: Case Study of the First Wave of COVID-19 in Brazil

During the COVID-19 pandemic, telehealth services have been widely used for screening suspected cases [4,5], as limited physical contact reduces everyone’s exposure to COVID-19. This successful strategy safely provides access to health care services and expands assistance to remote rural areas and underserved communities in situations of shortage of specialized health professionals [3].

Unbalanced Risk of Pulmonary Tuberculosis in China at the Subnational Scale: Spatiotemporal Analysis

Unbalanced Risk of Pulmonary Tuberculosis in China at the Subnational Scale: Spatiotemporal Analysis

In this study, the numbers of notified PTB cases and the populations of the 2851 county-level areas in mainland China from 2009 to 2018 were collected from the TBIMS. The annual PTB notification rate in a region was defined as the ratio of the annual number of notified PTB cases and the total population at the end of the year in the region. A Bayesian spatiotemporal model was built to analyze spatiotemporal patterns of PTB notification rates from 2009 to 2018.
