NPORS is an annual, cross-sectional survey of U.S. adults. Respondents can answer by paper, online or over the phone, and they are selected using address-based sampling from the United States Postal Service’s Computerized Delivery Sequence File. The response rate to the latest NPORS was 32%, and previous years’ surveys were designed with a similarly rigorous approach.

Democracy Checkup surveys gather information about the opinions of Canadians when election campaigns are not activating their interest and/or partisan attitudes, and capture general public opinion about democratic values, public policies, and current issues.

Despite global progress in childhood vaccination coverage, fragile and humanitarian countries, with high burden of infectious diseases, continue to report a significant number of zero-dose and under-vaccinated children. Efforts to equitably reach zero-dose children remain thus critical. This study assesses the prevalence and determinants of zero-dose children in fragile context of Somalia. We used secondary data from 2020 Somali Health and Demographic Survey (SHDS) to determine status of unvaccinated children aged between 12 to 23 months. Variables related to socio-demographic, household, health seeking, and community level factors were extracted from the SHDS data. Variables that were shown to be significantly associated with zero-dose children at p< 0.05 in the single logistic regression analysis were identified and included in a final multiple logistic regression analysis. A total of 2,304 women and their children aged between 12–23 months were used to determine the prevalence and determinants of zero dose children in Somalia. Approximately 60.2% of the children were zero dose children and did not receive any dose of the four basic routine vaccines. Children living in rural and nomadic areas were more likely to be zero dose (aOR 1.515, 95% CI: 1.189–1.93). Mother with primary education and above (aOR 0.519, 95% CI: 0.371–0.725), those who attended antenatal care (aOR 0.161, 95% CI: 0.124–0.209) and postnatal care (aOR 0.145, 95% CI: 0.085–0.245) and listen frequently to radio (aOR 2.212, 95% CI: 1.106–4.424) were less likely to have children with zero dose than with their counterparts. Majority of children under two years of age in Somalia are reported to be zero dose children. Context and population specific interventions that target vulnerable mothers and their children, in rural and nomadic areas, and from lower wealth quintile index families with no education and adequate access to antenatal and postnatal care remain critical.

The Weather and Environmental Services (WES) Board of Environment Canada has a mandate to provide Canadians with world class meteorological and environmental information, predictions and services to ensure safety, ecosystem sustainability and enhanced economic activity. In 1997 and 2002, the MSC conducted national public opinion surveys to assess Canadians’ needs, usage, satisfaction and expectations concerning the weather products and services it provides. In spring 2007, the WES Board commissioned EKOS Research Associates Inc. to conduct another survey, to measure the public’s satisfaction with certain of its products and services (including “weatheroffice” and Weatheradio Canada) and determine what additional meteorological products and services the public wants. The methodology for this study involved conducting a 20-minute telephone survey with some 4,100 respondents drawn from the general Canadian population. The sample included all provinces and territories and was administered in English and French.

Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis (EPTB) poses challenges from patient and health system perspectives. The cost-effectiveness analysis of the Xpert MTB/RIF (Xpert) test to diagnose pulmonary tuberculosis is documented. However, there are no economic evaluations for EPTB. Considering the reported better diagnostic sensitivity of the MPT64 test, this study explored its cost-effectiveness as an alternative diagnostic test. We conducted this economic evaluation to assess the cost-effectiveness of the MPT64 test compared to Xpert and ZN microscopy for EPTB adult patients. We utilised a Markov modelling approach to capture short- and long-term costs and benefits from a health system perspective. For the model inputs, we combined data from our cohort studies in Tanzania and peer-reviewed EPTB literature. We calculated the Incremental Cost Effectiveness Ratio (ICER) by comparing the cost (in USD) of each diagnostic test and Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALYs) as health gain. We found the MPT64 test cost-effective for EPTB diagnosis and absolutely dominated ZN microscopy and Xpert using the baseline model inputs. A scenario analysis showed that the Xpert test might be the most cost-effective at its higher test sensitivity, which corresponds to using it to diagnose lymph node aspirates. The prevalence of HIV among EPTB cases, their probability of treatment, costs of ART, and the probability of the MPT64 test in detecting EPTB patients were the main parameters associated with the highest impact on ICER in one-way deterministic analysis. The most cost-effective option for EPTB at the baseline parameters was the MPT64 diagnostic test. Including the MPT64 test in EPTB diagnostic pathways for previously untreated patients can lead to better resource use. The Xpert test was the most cost-effective diagnostic intervention at a higher diagnostic test sensitivity in scenario analyses based on different sites of infection, such as for the lymph node aspirates.

Almost no public opinion research has been conducted to date on the general topic of contaminated sites at a national level. The purpose of this research is to measure Canadian public opinion on the issue of contaminated sites to provide a baseline from which future studies can be conducted to measure changes in opinions in response to government communications initiatives.
