The One Health (OH) approach is used to control/prevent zoonotic events. However, there a lack of tools for systematically assessing OH practices. Here, we applied the Global Index (GOHI) evaluate global performance zoonoses (GOHI-Zoonoses). fuzzy analytic hierarchy process algorithm and comparison matrix were calculate weights scores five key indicators, 16 subindicators, 31 datasets 160 countries territories worldwide. distribution GOHI-Zoonoses varies significantly across regions,...
In the 21st century, as globalization accelerates and global public health crises occur, One Health approach, guided by holistic thinking of human-animal-environment emphasizes interdisciplinary collaboration to address issues, has been strongly advocated international community. An immediate requirement exists for creation an assessment tool foster initiatives on both national scales. Built upon extensive expert consultations dialogues, this follow-up study enhances 2022 Index (GOHI)...
Australian states and territories used test–trace–isolate–quarantine (TTIQ) systems extensively in their response to the COVID-19 pandemic 2020-2021. We report on an analysis of case data estimate impact SARS-CoV-2 transmission. Our uses a novel mathematical modelling framework detailed surveillance cases including dates infection isolation. First, we directly translate empirical distribution times from isolation into reductions potential for onward transmission during periods relatively low...
Contact tracing is an important public health measure used to reduce transmission of infectious diseases. tracers typically conduct telephone interviews with cases identify contacts and direct them quarantine, the aim preventing onward transmission. However, in situations where caseloads exceed capacity system, timely may not be feasible for all cases. Here we present a modelling framework assessing impact different case interview prioritisation strategies on disease Our model based...
The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic led to extensive vaccination campaigns worldwide, including in Australia. Immunity waning and the emergence of new viral variants pose challenges effectiveness vaccines. Our study aimed assess relative (rVE) 3 4 compared with 2 doses COVID-19 vaccine. focuses on Victorian population, a majority whom had no prior exposure virus before vaccination. We used routinely collected data for state Victoria, Australia, rVE during an Omicron-dominant...
Abstract Population-level waning of protection following immunising exposures is an important determinant susceptibility to COVID-19 outbreaks. This work outlines individual-based model (IBM) for the transmission and clinical impact SARS-CoV-2 that explicitly represents immunological response vaccination infection each individual. The IBM evaluates immunity inform risk related outcomes across a large freely mixing population over time by age prior exposure status. Modelling responses allows...
The effects of a diverse spectrum malaria interventions were evaluated through deterministic Plasmodium vivax transmission model. This approach aimed to provide theoretical evidence the performance these once implemented for achieving elimination. An integrated intervention portfolio, including mass drug administration, insecticide treatment, and untreated bed nets, was analyzed modeling. Additionally, data-driven calibration infer coverages that effectively reproduced historical patterns in...
