Vietnam has emerged as one of the world's leading success stories in responding to COVID-19. After a prolonged period little no transmission, there was an outbreak unknown source July, 2020, Da Nang region, but quickly suppressed. We aimed use epidemiological, behavioural, demographic, and policy data from COVID-19 calibrate agent-based model transmission for Vietnam, estimate risk future outbreaks associated with reopening international borders country.
Vietnam implemented various public health interventions such as contact tracing and testing, mandatory quarantine, lockdowns in response to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, the effects of these measures on epidemic remain unclear.
Plasmid-Mediated Colistin Resistance 1 (mcr-1) was first reported in 2015 and is a great concern to human health. In this study, we investigated the prevalence of mcr-1 mcr-1-positive Escherichia coli (MCRPEC) association infection status among various reservoirs connected livestock. The study conducted 70 poultry swine farms commune Ha Nam province, northern Vietnam. Samples were collected from farmers, food animals, domestic farm environments (flies wastewater) for polymerase chain...
Background: Long COVID is a recognized condition that can follow SARS-CoV-2 infection. It has been primarily observed and studied in adults. Evidence on long among children scarce. We aimed to estimate its prevalence symptom profile schoolchildren, effects studying, daily activities, quality of life. Methods: conducted cross-sectional online survey caregivers 2226 schoolchildren aged 12–17 Thai Nguyen, Vietnam, from 11 April 16 May 2023 using WHO definitions validated life questionnaire....
Objective: The risk of transmission severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) from schoolchildren to their household and the protective effects vaccination in these settings remain poorly understood. We assessed dynamics with SARS-CoV-2 within households disease (COVID-19) among members Viet Nam. Methods: estimated attack rate, vaccine effectiveness adjusted ratio (aRR) factors associated contacts children confirmed have COVID-19 who attended three schools Ha Nam, Phu Tho...
Half of diarrhea hospitalizations in children aged <5 years Vietnam are due to rotavirus. Following introduction a locally developed and licensed oral rotavirus vaccine, Rotavin-M1, into the routine immunization program two Vietnamese provinces, Nam Dinh TT Hue, we describe changes positivity among hospitalized for calculate vaccine effectiveness against moderate-to-severe hospitalizations.Active surveillance began December 2016 at sentinel hospitals districts where was introduced 2017. To...
Abstract Background International air travel plays an important role in the global spread of SARS-CoV-2, and tracing close contacts is integral part public health response to COVID-19. We aimed assess timeliness contact among airline passengers arriving Vietnam on flights containing COVID-19 cases investigated factors associated with tracing. Methods included data from 2228 22 incoming between 2 19 March 2020. Contact duration was assessed separately for time date index case confirmation...
Abstract The study aims to make an update on the distribution and ecology of sand flies in Quang Ninh province, Northern Vietnam, where Leishmania cases were reported 2001. Seventeen sites chosen three districts province: Ha Long, Cam Pha, Hoanh Bo. Phlebotomine collected using 68 CDC light traps from May 30 3 June 2016. Captured specimens transferred individually into Eppendorf tubes with 90% ethanol. fly heads genitalia removed mounted Euparal after successive different baths. Specimen...
Trends in the public perception and awareness of COVID-19 over time are poorly understood. We conducted a longitudinal study to analyze characteristics trends online information during major outbreak Da Nang province, Vietnam July-August 2020 understand perceptions an epidemic.
Canine-mediated human rabies deaths typically occur in poor and rural populations with limited access to biologics: vaccine immunoglobulin. A critical aspect of reducing is understanding how these countries procure, deliver, forecast biologics. Vietnam one the few endemic where biologics widely available. However, a formal evaluation its current distribution system has not been conducted. In 2017, we conducted Vietnam's system. Our goals were (1) identify centers providing (2) costs patient...
Abstract Background Vietnam has emerged as one of the world’s leading success stories in responding to COVID-19. After prolonged zero-low transmission, a summer outbreak unknown source at Da Nang caused country’s first COVID-19 deaths, but was quickly suppressed. recently reopened its borders international travelers. Understanding attendant risks and how minimize them is crucial moves into this new phase. Methods We create an agent-based model Vietnam, using regional testing data detailed...
Abstract This study presents the diversity of mosquitoes collected from communes, endemic with malaria and dengue, located in Khanh Hoa Binh Phuoc Provinces, Vietnam. A total 10,288 were village forested sites using standard larval dippers, cow-baited traps, ultra-violet light mechanical aspirators. Mosquito taxa identified morphologically species complexes/groups further characterized molecularly. Five genera identified: Anopheles Meigen (21 species), Aedes (2 Culex Linnaeus (5 Mansonia...
Background: Coffee consumption has been suggested to reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in high-income countries, but epidemiological evidence remains limited resource-constrained settings. This study investigated association between habitual coffee and T2D among Vietnamese adults. Methods: A hospital-based case–control was conducted Vietnam during 2013–2015. total 599 newly diagnosed diabetic cases (age 40–65 years) controls, frequency matched by age sex, were recruited Hanoi, capital...
Objective: At the time of this study, prevention novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) relied solely on nonpharmaceutical interventions. Implementation these interventions is not always optimal and, consequently, several cases were imported into non-epidemic areas and led to large community outbreaks. This report describes characteristics first outbreak COVID-19 in Viet Nam intensive preventive measures taken response. Methods: Cases detected tested for SARS-CoV-2 by real-time reverse...
Surveillance is the backbone of any response to an infectious disease outbreak, and comprehensive evaluation surveillance systems crucial. However, structured evaluations during COVID-19 pandemic are scarce. We conducted a after action review (AAR) performance system in Quang Ninh Province, Vietnam, 2020 using COVID-19-specific AAR methodology developed by World Health Organization combination with guidance from US Centers for Disease Control Prevention (CDC). stakeholder survey, document...
Background: SARS-CoV-2 transmission risks from school-aged children to their household contacts and the protective effects of vaccination in settings remain poorly understood. We assessed dynamics within households SARS-CoV-2-positive, schoolchildren COVID-19 among Vietnam.Methods: estimated attack rates, vaccine effectiveness (VE) adjusted risk ratios (aRR) factors associated with PCR-confirmed three schools Phu Tho, Ha Nam, Thanh Hoa province using a multivariate regression model...
