Senegal Sample Clauses

Senegal. Senegal stands as a prominent fishing nation, with its economy significantly anchored in the maritime industry. The country's coastal waters teem with diverse marine life, making it one of West Africa's richest fishing grounds. Fishing constitutes a vital sector that not only contributes substantially to national food security but also serves as a critical source of employment and income for a large portion of the Senegalese population. Data were collected in Senegal in Kayar, Yoff, and Ouakam (Figure 2), three artisanal fishing landing sites fish landing sites near Dakar. The fishing villages were chosen for their strong and long history of fishing and their access close to Dakar.

Senegal. In Senegal 60% of the total physicians in the country are located in the Dakar (Capital) region, which is mostly urban and constitutes 23% of the total Senegalese population. On the contrary, the Kaolack region, which is mostly rural and among poorest regions in the Senegal, is served by mere 3% of total physicians, although 11% of the total population is located in this region. (▇▇▇▇, Codjia, ▇▇▇▇, & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, 2010). Honda et al. noted that insecurities regarding the absence of permanent contracts, shortage and/or unavailability of equipment in the health facilities, and absence of career development opportunities are among the key factors contributing to poor rural physician retention in Senegal. (Honda et al., 2019).

Senegal. Research activities are being conducted through a partnership with PATH, the Institut de Recherché pour le Développement (IRD), and Institute Pasteur de Dakar. These activities include three separate but related vaccine trials. Vaccination and follow-up activities are completed for all three trials, and analyses are underway with manuscripts anticipated in 2015–2016. children compared to those receiving a placebo.

Senegal. Since 2012, with the financial and technical support of DHHS and CDC, the Senegalese influenza surveillance system has been enhanced to detect additional clinical syndromes and the laboratory identification of other respiratory viruses. This improved system, now called the 4S Network, is based on reporting nonspecific indicators as epidemiological data to the healthcare authorities, and on random sampling for laboratory-based testing. The network has been expanded from three ILI sentinel sites, all in Dakar (2011), to 14 sentinel sites (2015) with two SARI sites. Weekly reports are prepared and transmitted by the Ministry of Health (MoH) to regional and district public health staff, as well as national and international partners. Notable progress in laboratory diagnostic capacity has been achieved over the past four years, and the success of this partnership has led to significant enhancements benefiting both Senegal and GISRS. The 4S Network supports other laboratories on a regional level. Laboratorians from Guinea, Togo, and Mauritania have been trained on influenza detection and identification techniques. Pasteur Institute of Dakar, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, continues to build laboratory and epidemiologic surveillance capacity to determine the burden of influenza disease. SEYCHELLES ILI and SARI surveillance in Seychelles both began in October 2013. ILI sentinel surveillance is conducted in six health care centers, four of those on the island of Mahe, one on the island of Praslin, and one on the island of La Digue. They send daily epidemiological information for several diseases including ILI. SARI sentinel surveillance is conducted in four hospitals throughout the country, two of those are on the islands of Praslin and La Digue. The sentinel sites are monitored periodically by the Disease Surveillance and Response Unit to verify registers and entry of data. They use checklists and questionnaires as evaluation tools. The Molecular Diagnostic Unit (MDU) of the Seychelles Public Health Laboratory began analyzing samples from sentinel sites in October 2013, for the detection of influenza A (H1N1, H3N2, H1N1pdm09) and influenza B viruses. The MDU successfully participated in WHO’s External Quality Assessment Project (EQAP) Panel 13. In July 2014, all sentinel hospital site staff members participated in data collection training in order to coordinate and standardize data collection (clinical illness and mortality) on SARI cases.
