Moving hearts and minds: how the Big Tobacco, Tiny Targets campaign builds support for tobacco control policy

In this paper, we share background on the ‘Big Tobacco, Tiny Targets’ campaign, three short case studies from countries where the campaign had a substantial policy impact, keys to campaign success and campaign challenges. The campaign which demonstrated that the world’s biggest tobacco companies are targeting the world’s youth with tobacco marketing and advertising can be adapted by others in their tobacco control policy campaigns. The point-of-sale (POS), places where consumer goods are sold, is an important platform for marketing tobacco. Greater exposure to tobacco advertising and promotion at POS is associated with a greater likelihood of smoking among youth.1 2 In the USA, POS that adolescents visit regularly display more tobacco advertising than POS in the same community that are less popular with youth.3 In 2015, the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids (Tobacco-Free Kids), a US-based non-profit advocacy organisation focused on reducing tobacco use globally, collaborated wit

What influences the cost of vector control in Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) elimination?

In a recent study, researchers evaluate the cost of using ‘Tiny Target’ tsetse control in Cote D’Ivoire and demonstrate how vector ecology and geography can influence the cost of vector control strategies.

Update of transmission modelling and projections of gambiense human African trypanosomiasis in the Mandoul focus, Chad | Infectious Diseases of Poverty

In recent years, a programme of vector control, screening and treatment of gambiense human African trypanosomiasis (gHAT) infections led to a rapid decline in cases in the Mandoul focus of Chad. To represent the biology of transmission between humans and tsetse, we previously developed a mechanistic transmission model, fitted to data between 2000 and 2013 which suggested that transmission was interrupted by 2015. The present study outlines refinements to the model to: (1) Assess whether elimination of transmission has already been achieved despite low-level case reporting; (2) quantify the role of intensified interventions in transmission reduction; and (3) predict the trajectory of gHAT in Mandoul for the next decade under different strategies. Our previous gHAT transmission model for Mandoul was updated using human case data (2000–2019) and a series of model refinements. These include how diagnostic specificity is incorporated into the model and improvements to the fitting meth
