New COVID-19 Trackers in South Sudan Will Help Manage the Next Disease Outbreak
By Acaga Taban Ismail,
Former strategic information manager, IntraHealth InternationalDecember 14, 2022South Sudan has experienced numerous disease outbreaks before and after its independence in 2011, which have ranged from mild to severe. The South Sudan Ministry of Health continues to face several challenges managing and providing timely responses to emerging health threats.An underlying reason for this is the country’s shortage of health workers at the national and subnational levels.

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 15669: Addressing the COVID-19 Shock: The Potential Job Creation in China by the RCEP
This study aims to examine the number of sectoral jobs that the RCEP will create in China, with the number of skilled or unskilled labour employed in each sector. The exogenous shocks to the RCEP can be reflected in the number of jobs created through multipliers based on a social accounting matrix compiled from China’s input-output tables in 2017, combined with the employment satellite accounts compiled. The results show that the RCEP is expected to create over 17 million potential jobs in China, with unskilled labour accounting for 10.44 million and skilled labour for 6.77 million. It is even expected that t...

Aust J Prim Health. 2022 Nov 8. doi: 10.1071/PY22146. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis paper explores the roles of university departments of primary health care (PHC) and general practice in promoting health equity. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has exposed long-standing health and workforce inequities in Australia, as elsewhere. Addressing these inequities will require wide-ranging responses particularly focussed on PHC and the PHC workforce. Well-resourced university departments of PHC and general practice have potential to lead research informing PHC transformation and strategies to reduce health in...
