<ns3:p>Late in 2020, two genetically-distinct clusters of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) with mutations biological concern were reported, one the United Kingdom and South Africa. Using a combination data from routine surveillance, genomic sequencing international travel we track dispersal lineages B.1.1.7 B.1.351 (variant 501Y-V2). We account for potential biases surveillance efforts by including passenger volumes location where lineage was first London Africa...

In 2015, Botswana introduced quadrivalent human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine for girls aged 9-13 years. To establish a baseline HPV prevalence future impact monitoring, we evaluated prevalences among the youngest unvaccinated women in and compared living with HIV (WLHIV) without HIV.
Abstract In 2015, Botswana introduced the quadrivalent human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine as a two-dose schedule in girls aged 9–13 years. We sought to establish baseline HPV prevalence unvaccinated young adults Botswana. HIV-uninfected men and women 18–22 years were recruited from University of Gaborone during October 2019–February 2021. Demographic behavioural characteristics self-reported structured interviews. Self-collected vaginal penile swabs tested for 28 types using Seegene Anyplex...
Medical records and residual samples from 334 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients attending a clinic in Gaborone, Botswana, during the period September-December 2016 were analysed for effects of hyperuricaemia on biochemical markers adverse outcomes. The stratified as having (> 400 µmol/L) or normal serum uric acid (≤ µmol/L). We compared glycated haemoglobin, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, high-density total cholesterol creatinine between two categories. Hyperuricaemia...
