Spatio-temporal spread of deaths from in Argentina

Describe the spatio-temporal spread of deaths from COVID-19, and analyze their socio-spatial inequalities in Argentina. The deaths from COVID-19 that occurred in Argentina as of October 17, 2020 were analyzed using data referred to the day, month and year, and the place of residence. The spatio Chad Email List  temporal permutations scanning technique was used to detect the presence of spatio-temporal conglomerates. The poverty level, population density and percentage of older adult population were compared between the areas belonging to high mortality clusters and the areas belonging Chad Email List  to low mortality clusters.

Five clusters of high mortality were detected between March 21 and August Chad Email List in the Greater Buenos Aires Agglomerate (AGBA) and northeast of the province of Buenos Aires. The low mortality conglomerates were located in the periphery of the AGBA, Chad Email List  from mid-September to mid-October, and in the center and northwest of Argentina, between the end of April and the end of August. The high mortality clusters were located in areas with higher population density and a higher percentage of older adult population compared to the Chad Email List  low mortality clusters.

Describe what is known about the national Chad Email List prevalence of intimate partner violence (IPV) against women in the Americas, across countries, and over time, including geographic coverage, quality, and comparability of data. national data. A systematic review and reanalysis of national estimates of IPV based on the population from 1998 to 2017 in the Americas was performed. Chad Email List  Figures were reanalyzed for comparability or extracted from reports, including prevalence by type (physical; sexual; or physical and / or sexual), time frame (ever; within the past year), and perpetrator (any partner in life ; current / most recent partner). In countries with three (3+) rounds of data, the Cochran-Armitage and Pearson’s chi-square tests were applied to assess whether changes over time were significant 

Eligible surveys were found in 24 countries. Women reported ever having Chad Email List  suffered physical and / or sexual violence by an intimate partner, with rates ranging from 14% to 17% in Brazil, Panama and Uruguay to more than half (58.5%) in Bolivia. The prevalence of physical and / or sexual violence by an intimate partner during the last year ranged from 1.1% in Canada to Chad Email List in Bolivia. Preliminary evidence suggests a possible decrease in the reported prevalence for certain types of IPV in eight countries; However, some changes were small, certain indicators did not change significantly, and significant increases were observed in the reported prevalence of physical violence by an intimate partner during the last year in the Dominican Republic. IPV against women continues to be a public health and human Chad Email List  rights problem in the Americas; however, the evidence base in this regard has deficiencies, which points to the need for better quality and more comparable data, in order to mobilize and monitor violence prevention and response.
