Increased HIV/AIDS testing is of paramount importance in controlling the pandemic and subsequently saving lives. Despite progress programmes, most people are still reluctant to test thus unaware their status. Understanding factors associated with uptake levels self-testing requires knowledge people's perceptions attitudes, informing evidence-based decision making. Using South African National HIV Prevalence, Incidence, Behaviour Communication Survey 2017 (SABSSM V), this study assessed efficacy Generalised Linear Poisson Regression (GLPR) Geographically Weighted (GWPR) modelling spatial dependence non-stationary relationships covariates. The models were calibrated at district level across Africa. Results showed a slightly better performance GWPR (pseudo R2 = 0.91 AICc 390) compared GLPR 0.88 2552). Estimates local intercepts derived from exhibited differences uptake. Overall, output displays interesting findings on heterogeneity Africa, which calls for district-specific policies increase awareness need self-testing.

Abstract: The delay or refusal of vaccination, which defines vaccine hesitancy, is a major challenge to successful control COVID-19 epidemic. huge number publications addressing hesitancy necessitates periodic review provide concise summary acceptance rates worldwide. In the current narrative review, data on were retrieved from surveys in 114 countries/territories. East and Southern Africa (n = 9), highest rate was reported Ethiopia (92%), while lowest Zimbabwe (50%). West/Central 13), Niger (93%), Cameroon (15%). Asia Pacific 16), Nepal Vietnam (97%), Hong Kong (42%). Eastern Europe/Central 7), Montenegro (69%) Kazakhstan (64%), Russia (30%). Latin America Caribbean 20), Mexico (88%), Haiti (43%). Middle East/North (MENA, n 22), Tunisia Iraq (13%). Western/Central Europe North 27), Canada (91%) Norway (89%), Cyprus Portugal (35%). ≥ 60% seen 72/114 countries/territories, compared 42 countries/territories with between 13% 59%. phenomenon appeared more pronounced MENA, Central Asia, Africa.

The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has taken a toll on humans, and the development of effective vaccines been promising tool to end pandemic. However, for vaccination program be successful, considerable proportion community must vaccinated. Hence, public acceptance COVID-19 become key controlling Recent studies have shown vaccine hesitancy increasing over time. This systematic review aims evaluate rate related factors in different communities. A comprehensive search was performed Medline (via PubMed), Scopus, Web Science from January 1, 2019 31, 2022. All relevant descriptive observational (cross-sectional longitudinal) were included this review. In meta-analysis, Odds Ratio (OR) used assess effects population characteristics hesitancy, event (acceptance rate) effect measure overall acceptance. Publication bias assessed using funnel plot, Egger's test, trim-and-fill methods. total 135 out 6,417 after screening. meta-analysis 114 studies, including 849,911 participants, showed an 63.1%. addition, men, married individuals, educated people, those with history flu vaccination, higher income levels, comorbidities, people living urban areas less hesitant.

Background Limited information is available on geographic disparities of COVID-19 vaccination in Missouri and yet this essential for guiding efforts to improve coverage. Therefore, the objectives study were (a) investigate proportion population vaccinated against (b) identify socioeconomic demographic predictors identified disparities. Methods The data time period January 1 December 31, 2021 obtained from Department Health. County-level factors downloaded 2020 American Community Survey. Proportions county computed displayed choropleth maps. Global ordinary least square regression model local geographically weighted used proportions population. Results Counties located eastern tended have high while low observed southernmost part state. with percentages Hispanic/Latino ( p = 0.046), individuals living below poverty level 0.049), uninsured 0.015) populations. strength association between percentage varied by location. Conclusion findings confirm Missouri. Study are useful programs geared at improving coverage uptake targeting resources areas individuals.

Abstract While COVID-19 vaccines have been available since December 2020 and efforts made to vaccinate the maximum population, a large number of people are continuing be hesitant, prolonging pandemic in US. most previous studies investigated social, economic, demographic variables that associated with vaccine hesitancy, we added ecological technological better understand spatial variations rates contiguous United States using regression geographically weighted (GWR) models. We aim identify spatially varying ecological, factors vaccination rates, which can aid identifying strengthening public health system programs eventually facilitate overcome hesitancy. found six statistically significant predictors; two predictors, % Republican voters (r = 0.507, p < .001) Black population −0.360, were negatively correlated whereas four remaining Population college degree 0.229, 001), NRI Score 0.131, .001), broadband access 0.020, Health facilities per 10 000 0.424, 001) positively at county level. GWR results show relationships between rate explanatory variables, indicating need for regional-specific policy. To achieve widespread vaccination, addressing will essential. draw particular attention variances even among factors. This research also calls reexamination existing practices, including communication other policies, local national organizations, telecommunications agents, mobilization resources by private sectors.

Abstract Background Mass vaccination has been a key strategy in effectively containing global COVID-19 pandemic that posed unprecedented social and economic challenges to many countries. However, rates vary across space socio-economic factors, are likely depend on the accessibility services, which is under-researched literature. This study aims empirically identify spatially heterogeneous relationship between factors England. Methods We investigated percentage of over-18 fully vaccinated people at small-area level England up 18 November 2021. used multiscale geographically weighted regression (MGWR) model determinants, including ethnic, age, economic, factors. Results indicates selected MGWR can explain 83.2% total variance rates. The variables exhibiting positive association with most areas include proportion population over 40, car ownership, average household income, spatial vaccination. In contrast, under less deprived population, black or mixed ethnicity negatively associated Conclusions Our findings indicate importance improving vaccinations developing regions among specific groups order promote
