Full text linkIntroductionSince August 2009, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has implemented sentinel site surveillance for rotavirus gastroenteritis. Limited hospital studies have been carried out, in DRC, describing the epidemiology of rotavirus diarrhea before rotavirus vaccine introduction in October 2019. This analysis describes the epidemiology of rotavirus gastroenteritis and characteristics of circulating viral strains from 2009 to 2019.Materials and methodsWe analyzed demographic and clinic data collected from children < 5 years old enrolled at three rotavirus sentinel surveillance sites in DRC during 2009\u20132019, prior to rotavirus vaccine introduction in 2019. Data have been described and presented as mean \ub1 standard deviation for quantitative variables with normal distribution, or as median with an interquartile range [Q1-Q3] for quantitative variables with non-normal distribution, or as absolute value with percentage for qualitative variables.ResultsBetween August 2009 and December 2019, 4,928 children < 5 years old were admitted to sentinel surveillance sites for gastroenteritis in the DRC; the rotavirus positivity rate was 60%. There was a slight male gender predominance (56%), and the majority of children (79%) were 0\u201311 months of age. Every year, the incidence was highest between May and September corresponding to the dry and cool season. Genotyping was performed for 50% of confirmed rotavirus cases. The most common G genotypes were G1 (39%) and G2 (24%) and most common P genotypes were P[6] (49%) and P[8] (37%). The most common G-P genotype combinations were G1P[8] (22%), G2P[6] (16%) and G1P[6] (14%). Genotype distribution varied by site, age group, and year.ConclusionFrom 2009 to 2019, rotavirus-associated gastroenteritis represented a significant burden among DRC children under 5 who were admitted to sentinel sites. G1P[8] was the most commonly identified genotype. Continued monitoring after the introduction of rotavirus vaccine will be essential to monitor any changes in epidemiology.001/WHO_/World Health OrganizationInternational/CC999999/ImCDC/Intramural CDC HHSUnited States

No full textPurpose:Incident HIV remains an important public health issue in the U.S. South, the region leading the nation in HIV incidence, rural HIV cases, and HIV-related deaths. Late diagnoses drive incident HIV and understanding factors driving late diagnoses is critical for developing locally relevant HIV testing and prevention interventions, decreasing HIV transmission, and ending the HIV epidemic.Methods:Retrospective cohort study utilizing Tennessee Department of Health (TDH) surveillance data and U.S. Census Bureau data. Adults 6518 years old with a new HIV diagnosis between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2019 identified in the TDH eHARS were included. Individuals were followed from initial HIV diagnosis until death, 90 days of follow-up for outcome assessment, or administrative censoring 90 days after study enrollment closed.Findings:We included 3,652 newly HIV-diagnosed individuals; median age was 31 years (IQR: 25, 42), 2909 (79.7%) were male, 2057 (56.3%) were Black, 246 (6.7%) were Hispanic, 408 (11.2%) were residing in majority-rural areas at diagnosis, and 642 (17.6%) individuals received a late HIV diagnosis. Residents of majority-rural counties (aRR=1.39, 95% CI: 1.16\u20131.67) and Hispanic individuals (aRR=1.87, 95% CI: 1.50\u20132.33) had an increased likelihood of receiving a late diagnosis after controlling for race/ethnicity, age, and year of HIV diagnosis.Conclusions:Rural residence and Hispanic ethnicity were associated with an increased risk of receiving a late HIV diagnosis in Tennessee. Future HIV testing and prevention efforts should be adapted to the needs of these vulnerable populations.L30 AI172003/AI/NIAID NIH HHSUnited States/P30 AI110527/AI/NIAID NIH HHSUnited States/R01 MH113438/MH/NIMH NIH HHSUnited States/T32 HS026122/HS/AHRQ HHSUnited States/P30 AI110527/AI/NIAID NIH HHSUnited States/CDC-RFA-PS18-1802/Tennessee Integrated HIV Surveillance and Prevention Programs for Health Departments/T32HS026122/Agency for Health Care Research and Quality funded PROgRESS
