  • The Campaign to Kick Polio out of Nigeria
    THE CAMPAIGN TO KICK POLIO OUT OF NIGERIA Adapted from the broadcast audio segment; use the audio player to listen to the story in its entirety. Religion in sub-Saharan Africa is often about saving patients as much as it is about saying prayers. That blend of holy and healthy is on display in Northern Nigeria where the country's religious leadership played a critical role in first preventing and then promoting the campaign to eliminate polio from Africa’s largest population. Dr. Bruce Aylward is the Director of The Global Polio Eradication Initiative. He says people don’t realize just how devastating polio can be – it leaves its victims paralyzed for life. “The acute illness is a very painful disease. The thing that goes unrecognized by many people is that a large proportion of children can actually die of the disease.” Despite decades of vaccination campaigns children are still dying from the disease, particularly in Northern Nigeria. “If you are a polio virus and there is a global war being waged against you, you are going to look for a large, dense population with low immunization coverage, sub-optimal sanitation, and a tropical climate to survive,” says Dr. Aylward. “Those are going to be the keys to your survival and Nigeria had all of those in spades.” The task of defeating the virus got even tougher in 2003 when rumors that the polio vaccine was tainted with sterility drugs and HIV swirled through Northern Nigeria. As concern mounted, Northern Nigeria’s traditional and religious leadership was consulted. Anand Balachandran is the Political Advocacy Officer of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative.

  • 'Fearonomics' and the Role of the Private Sector in the Nigerian Ebola
    ‘Fearonomics’ and the Role of the Private Sector in the Nigerian Ebola Response by Sulzhan Bali Duke Global Health Institute Duke University Date: Approved: ___________________________ Kearsley Stewart, Co-Supervisor ___________________________ Muhammad Pate, Co-Supervisor ___________________________ Chris Woods Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in the Duke Global Health Institute in the Graduate School of Duke University 2016 ABSTRACT ‘Fearonomics’ and the Role of the Private Sector in the Nigerian Ebola Response by Sulzhan Bali Duke Global Health Institute Duke University Date: Approved: ___________________________ Kearsley Stewart, Co-Supervisor ___________________________ Muhammad Pate, Co-Supervisor ___________________________ Chris Woods An abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in the Duke Global Health Institute in the Graduate School of Duke University 2016 Copyright by Sulzhan Bali 2016 Abstract Background: Outbreaks of infectious diseases such as Ebola have dramatic economic impacts on affected nations due to significant direct costs and indirect costs, as well as increased expenditure by the government to meet the health and security crisis. Despite its dense population, Nigeria was able to contain the outbreak swiftly and was declared Ebola free on 13 th October 2014. Although, Nigeria’s Ebola containment success was multifaceted, the private sector played a key role in Nigeria’s fight against Ebola. An epidemic of a disease like Ebola, not only consumes health resources, but also detrimentally disrupts trade and travel to impact both public and private sector resulting in the ‘fearonomic effect ’ of the contagion. In this thesis I have defined ‘ fearonomics ’ or the ‘ fearonomic effects ’ of a disease as the economic effects of both informed and misinformed aversion behavior exhibited by individuals, organizations, or countries during an outbreak.
