  • Priority, Invisibility and Eradication: the History of Smallpox and the Brazilian Public Health Agenda
    Medical History, 2009, 53: 229–252 Priority, Invisibility and Eradication: The History of Smallpox and the Brazilian Public Health Agenda GILBERTO HOCHMAN* Introduction This article describes three periods in Brazil’s modern history when governmental action was (or was not) taken against smallpox: first, when smallpox control became a priority in the Brazilian sanitary agenda from the nineteenth century to the beginning of the twentieth century; second, when it was rendered politically invisible during decades when greater attention was given to yellow fever and malaria control; third, when it reappeared at the cen- tre of Brazilian health policy in the 1960s until its eventual eradication in 1973. Smallpox control in the latter two periods is suffused with paradox. For example, evidence suggests that the nearly fifty-year absence or lack of policies and agencies to deal with smallpox actually favoured the mobilization of local, national and international resources once the era- dication programme was launched in 1966; these new approaches were accelerated from 1969 until the completion of eradication in 1973. Equally paradoxical, it was during the spe- cific context of the military regime after 1964 that the Brazilian health system developed the capacity to mobilize existing but dispersed resources and flexibly to innovate, incorporate, and adapt new policies. Another important element in this period was institutional learning based on other vertical programmes such as the malaria eradication campaign. Although the Brazilian smallpox eradication programme was constrained by international agencies and by bilateral co-operation with the United States, the period after 1964 offered opportunities for the realization of a new and wide-ranging national health capacity including the creation of a national system of epidemiological surveillance and a national childhood immunization programme.

Materials and Methods: We accomplished an observational study by collecting the data about total confirmed cases and deaths due to COVID-19 in the top 10 high social developed neighborhoods and top 10 most populous favelas in RJ to determine the case-fatality rate (CFR) and compare these two different realities. Results: CFR was significatively higher in poverty areas of RJ, reaching a mean of 9.08% in the most populous favelas and a mean of 4.87% in the socially developed neighborhoods. Conclusions: The social mitigation measures adopted in RJ have benefited only smaller portions of the population, excluding needy communities.

Landovitz13 © The Author(s) 2020 Abstract Long-acting injectable PrEP could ofer an alternative to daily oral PrEP, improve adherence and protection, if found acceptable, safe and efective. HPTN 077 evaluated injectable cabotegravir safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics among HIV-uninfected males and females in sequentially-enrolled cohorts of two dosing strategies. We compared acceptability of product attributes, prevention preferences and future interest in injectable PrEP (FIIP) by region, sex-at-birth, arm and cohort and used multivariable analysis to identify FIIP determinants. Baseline injectable PrEP preferences were higher in non-U.S. sites and increased in both regions over time. In multivariable models, FIIP was most strongly associated with acceptability of product attributes, was higher in non-U.S. sites and more altruistic participants. Treatment arm and report of pain were not associated with FIIP. Injectable acceptability was highest in non-U.S. sites. Preferences for injectable versus other PrEP methods were higher among U.S. males than females, but higher

  • Annex 1 Recommendationsa for the Production and Quality Control of Smallpox Vaccine, Revised 2003
    © World Health Organization WHO Technical Report Series, No. 926, 2004 Annex 1 Recommendationsa for the production and quality control of smallpox vaccine, revised 2003 Recommendations published by WHO are intended to be scientific and advisory. Each of the following sections constitutes guidance for national regulatory authorities and for the manufacturers of biological products. If a national regulatory authority so desires, these Recommendations may be adopted as definitive national requirements, or modifications may be justified and made by a national regulatory authority. It is recommended that modifications to these Recommendations be made only on condition that the modifications ensure that the vaccine is at least as safe and efficacious as that prepared in accordance with the Rec- ommendations set out below. The parts of each section printed in small type are comments for additional guidance intended for manufacturers and national regulatory authori- ties, which may benefit from those details. In these Recommendations, Part A describes the general provisions for the production and quality control of small- pox vaccine and is applicable to production of vaccine in all permissible substrates, including the use of a cell bank. Part B describes national control requirements. The terms “national regulatory authority” and “national control labo- ratory”, as used in these Recommendations, always refer to the country in which the vaccine is manufactured. a Previously called Requirements for Smallpox vaccine. 27 Introduction 28 General considerations 29 Part A.

After the pandemic, there was a need to adapt the strategy of influenza surveillance in Brazil and obtain a better understanding of the clinical, epidemiological and etiological cases of severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) since a variety of agents, beyond influenza are responsible for most of these cases and occurrence may occur in clusters of cases that deserve specific and timely interventions. Given the need to structure influenza surveillance in Brazil to improve prevention and control activities and identify unusual or new human influenza subtypes, the Ministry of Health (MOH) issued ordinance Official n. 2,693 in 2011.

  • How the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation Is Working to Address the Pandemic in Brazil
    Brazilian Journal of Analytical Chemistry 2020, Volume 7, Issue 29, pp 84-90 FEATURE COVID-19: How the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation is Working to Address the Pandemic in Brazil The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has presented itself as one of the greatest health challenges on a global scale at the beginning of this century. Insufficient scientific knowledge about the new coronavirus, its high speed of dissemination and the capacity to cause deaths in vulnerable populations has generated uncertainties about what would be the best strategies to use to face the pandemic in different parts of the world. In Brazil, the challenges are even greater, as little is known about the transmission characteristics of the new coronavirus in the context of great social inequality, with populations living in precarious housing and sanitation conditions, without systematic access to water and in a situation of overcrowding. According to the National Council of Health Secretaries (Conass), from the beginning of the pandemic in March until October 8 2020, Brazil recorded 148,957 deaths from COVID-19, and 5,028,444 infected individuals. Given this scenario, institutions such as the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (Fiocruz) are extremely important in the fight against COVID-19 in Brazil. One of the initiatives of this institution was the creation of the ‘Observatory COVID-19 Fiocruz’ whose general objective is the development of integrated analyses, technologies, proposals and solutions to face the pandemic by COVID-19 by the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS) and by Brazilian society. The observatory is structured in a collaborative way, allowing the initiatives and work already developed in the different laboratories, research groups and sectors of Fiocruz to develop their activities in an agile way, with internal and external cooperation networks for the production and dissemination of materials to face the pandemic.
