Article Synopsis
- - A study found a positive link between GDP per capita and the number of COVID-19 tests conducted per 1000 people in Southeast Asia, suggesting that wealthier nations tend to test more frequently.
- - The research also analyzed other factors like governance, public health measures, and investment in health to see how they influenced testing rates during the early COVID-19 pandemic, using regression analysis on COVID-19 data.
- - Results indicated that higher GDP per capita correlates with increased testing, and all analyzed factors were significantly connected to testing rates, but the study emphasizes caution in applying findings to individuals due to its ecological nature and recommends further research on healthcare spending's effects.
Background: Our study aimed to explore the experiences of stakeholders from local government units, health facilities and higher education institutions on the delivery of non-COVID-19 health services after the initial wave of the pandemic.
Methods: Twenty-nine public health workers, thirteen university staff, and four hospital administrators in the Philippines participated. Using a descriptive phenomenological approach, we analysed transcripts from six focus group discussions conducted online between March and June 2021.
