The concept of 'resilience' is pervasive, permeating academic disciplines and political discourses. This paper considers (i) the construal of 'resilience' in the contexts of food insecurity and cost-of-living in governmental discourses in the United Kingdom (UK); (ii) to what extent the political representations are reflected in research funding calls of UK national funding bodies, thus showing possibility of shaping research agendas; and (iii) to what extent official uses of 'resilience' reflect lay understandings. We are combining a corpus-based discourse analysis of UK governmental discourses and research funding calls with a study of focus group discussions.

Long Covid is the continuation or development of symptoms related to a SARSCoV2 infection. Those with Long Covid may face epistemic injustice, where they are unjustifiably viewed as unreliable evaluators of their own illness experiences. Media articles both reflect and influence perception and subsequently how people regard children and young people (CYP) with Long Covid, and may contribute to epistemic injustice.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFIntroduction: Organised by the 'Qualitative Long Covid Network', a workshop for qualitative Long COVID (LC) researchers, LC charity representatives and people with LC took place in June 2023, where research on the intersectional inequalities affecting LC prevalence, recognition and care was shared and discussed.
Methods: Five key themes were drawn up from presentations, discussions and reflections during the workshop, which are presented in this study.
Results: The following five themes are discussed: the unfairness of LC, difficulties in accessing care, mistrust of the healthcare system, a lack of understanding of LC and experiences of stigma and discrimination.
Article Synopsis
- To track global progress in reducing HIV incidence, a reliable evaluation method is essential since usual HIV diagnosis dates can misrepresent when the infection actually occurred.
- A Bayesian statistical model was developed to more accurately estimate the proportions of recent and incident HIV infections in Scotland from 2015 to 2019 by incorporating various testing results and surveillance data.
- The model found that 43.9% of diagnoses were incident infections and 21.6% were recent, particularly high among people who inject drugs, demonstrating the model's potential to enhance understanding of HIV transmission dynamics amidst data limitations.
Objective: To investigate current care for people with Long COVID in England.
Design: In-depth, semistructured interviews with people living with Long COVID and Long COVID healthcare professionals; data analysed using thematic analysis.
Setting: National Health Service England post-COVID-19 services in six clinics from November 2022 to July 2023.
