Two-intervention social distancing strategy to control COVID-19 in Mosul city; A Comparative study

Background: Novel coronavirus what known now as COVID-19 pandemic represents worldwide health problem. It presented as an upper respiratory infection, acute respiratory distress syndrome, micro thrombosis, sepsis, septic shock, and multi-organ failure and death. Early recognition of suspected cases allows health staff and local gover-
 
 Nment the sufficient time to initiate the appropriate international and national protocols to control the transmission of infection.
 Aim: Evaluate the effectiveness of two- intervention social distancing strategy that was applied to control COVID-19 in Mosul city.
 Method: Using mathematical simulation model for COVID-19 spread implemented in Santa Clara City in US to estimate the expected burden of the pandemic in Mosul City. This model give a numerical data about the number of the infected cases and time interval of applying the appropriate intervention control strategies by comparing single-strategy (social distancing) to two-intervention strategy (social distancing & light switch approach).
 Results: The two interventions strategy shows that on average, the baseline epidemic scenario affected 12.3% of the population in comparison to 11.6% with single-strategy at 70% contact rate. While at the rate of 20% of social contact, only 0.11 % of the population will be infected in the two-intervention strategy in comparison to 0.165% when the single strategy applied. This means a significant reduction in the spread of the infection and the peak time incidence in all hypotheses will be significantly delayed.
 Conclusion: The two- intervention social distancing strategy is an efficient tool to control COVID-19 in Mosul city and this represents a big success for Crisis Cell in controlling the pandemic in Mosul city.

Strategi Dinas Kesehatan Provinsi Lampung dalam Menanggulangi Penyebaran HIV/AIDS di Provinsi Lampung

The increase in population growth in Indonesia is one of the impacts for the transmission of HIV/AIDS.  The high spread of HIV/AIDS in Lampung Province led the Minister of Health to form Permenkes Number 21 of 2013 concerning HIV/AIDS Prevention.  This study aims to find alternative strategies for the Health Agency of Lampung Local Goverments in treating the spread of HIV/AIDS by paying attention to the management strategies implemented by the Lampung Provincial Health Office. However, currently the Lampung Provincial Health Office does not yet have a specific strategy to tackle the spread of HIV / AIDS.  In addition, the lack of public knowledge about HIV / AIDS becomes an obstacle in efforts to tackle HIV / AIDS. Therefore, the aim of the authors in this study is to find the right strategy in tackling the spread of HIV / AIDS in Lampung Province. The type of research used is descriptive research with a qualitative approach.  Data collection is done by means of interviews, questionnaires, and documentation.  The theory used in identifying strategies is the analysis of internal and external environmental factors according to the theory put forward by Akdon.  The results of the research indicates that human resources in handling HIV and AIDS are capable in terms of numbers and abilities.  However, external conditions such as politics, law, and technology have constraints from the external environment that hinder the effectiveness of HIV/AIDS treatment. In accordance with Akdon's theory, the right strategy is to utilize human resources while collaborating with organizations that support to tackle the spread of HIV / AIDS.  This is in line with strategies that minimize weaknesses and avoid threats.

External funding reduction of HIV/AIDS programme: Exploring options for financial sustainability

ABSTRACT Objectives: To examine the financing trend for HIV/AIDS programme for 2011–2019 and to explore the potential options to fill funding gap and sustain the programme. Methods: Using mixed methods, including literature review and qualitative interview (16 in-depth interviews with key informants from the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Planning and Investment, Vietnam Authority of HIV/AIDS Control and related departments of Bac Ninh and Dien Bien Provinces). Results: The total fund for 2011–2019 was 22,243 billion VND (USD317.3 million) with the largest contribution of external funding (67%). The share of government budget remains quite low (9%). HIV/AIDS programme is focusing on shifting the finance of HIV/AIDS services from programme/projects to the health insurance fund; increasing the contribution of local government budget and diversifying other domestic sources. It is important for the programme to promote the integration of HIV/AIDS services into the current healthcare system and decentralization of HIV/AIDS services into primary healthcare facilities. Conclusion: To fill the funding gap for HIV/AIDS programme, it requires increasing contribution from local goverment budget for prevention activies as well as social health insurance for treatment. Lessons learnt from HIV/AIDS programme could suggest for other priority public health programmes to sustain their achievements in the upcoming years.

Hierarchical Bayesian Modelling in Small Area for Estimating Binary Data

Indonesian’s data are obtained from BPS from census, but census are designed for large area. Now, local goverments need to have reliable and detailed information in small area. Direct estimation are unreliable to be applied in small area because produced high mean square error (MSE). To overcome this problem, we use the indirect estimation Small Area Estimation Hierarchical Bayesian (SAE HB) with Logit Normal as the model. From this study founded that HB produced a smaller MSE than direct estimation

Analytical Assessment of Borehole Water in Some Local Government Areas of Akwa Ibom State, South-South Nigeria

In this study, analytical assessment of borehole water was carried out in selected non-oil producing Local Goverment Areas of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. The areas were Uyo, Itu, and Ibesikpo Asutan Local Government Areas. The sampling areas were divided into three (3) zones with nine (9) sampling sites. For Itu L.G.A., the sampling site were,Urua Ekpa (BW1), Akon Itam (BW2) and Nung Ukot Itam (BW3); Uyo L.G.A., the sampling sites were Oron road, (BW4), Ekpri Nsukara (BW5), Obio Offot (BW6); the sampling sites in Ibesikpo L.G.A. were Ikot Akpanabia (BW7), Ikot Atang (BW8), Mbikpong (BW9). A total of nine water samples, obtained from boreholes in the study areas, were analyzed for their physico-chemical parameters such as pH, temperature, salinity, conductivity, total dissolved oxygen, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, alkalinity, acidity and total dissolved solid. Anions determined were phosphates (PO4 3- ), nitrates (NO3 - ), chlorides (Cl - ), sulphates (SO4 2- ) while cations analysed were Mg 2+ ,Cd 2+ , Fe 2+ , Ni2+ and Pb 2+ . The results obtained reveal that the amounts of all the heavy metals determined in all the water samples were within the WHO acceptable standard for drinking water, with the exception of iron. It was also observed that the anions concentrations were below the WHO acceptable standard for drinking water. The high concentrations of cations in the analyzed ground water can largely be attributed to anthropogenic sources. In conclusion, the physico-chemical properties, as well as the concentrations of cations and anions in the under ground water usually affect the overall water quality, hence highlighting the need for frequent monitoring.
