ETHOS Wave III, here we go! Great to be back on the road after 2 years. Elimination is the goal. #ETHOS #NoHep #HepC #HepFreeAus
Awareness of HCV infection status in ETHOS Engage participants was suboptimal (65%) and lower among those with current infection (46%). Increased and simplified testing may help. We look forward to providing more point-of-care HCV testing in Wave 3! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
✊🏽🚌🩸💉Peers On Wheels (POW) is so much more than just a van! 🥳 POW is a new pilot project NUAA has launched to deliver mobile peer-led testing and treatment services for hepatitis C (hep C).🩸👈 — It's the first of its kind in NSW! 👀 Read here: usersnews.com.au/home/peers-on-…
Join us Nov 25, 1pm Sydney time for a focus on living experience in Spotlight on Stigma series. Facilitated by @Annie_Madden_ with a dazzling range of speakers: Michelle Tobin, Tony McNaughton, Nafisa Yussf. eventbrite.com.au/e/living-exper…
A primary outcome of ETHOS Engage is treatment initiation among those who test HCV RNA positive on campaign days. @banAnnaConway presents this treatment uptake among the first wave of participants both 1 and 2 years post-campaign. #INHSU21 on-demand is available for the next 3 mo
Go watch PhD student Alice Wheeler as she looks at the prevalence of drug-related hospitalisation in the ETHOS cohort in her on-demand #INHSU21 presentation. This is key data in the pursuit of improving the overall health and well-being of people who inject drugs.
Dr Alison Marshall's presentation on the willingness among people who inject drugs to participate in a randomised controlled trial involving financial incentives to initiate HCV treatment is available on-demand at #INHSU21. Grab your cup of INHSU coffee and give it a watch!
PhD candidate @valerio_heather will be presenting at today's Progress Toward HCV Elimination parallel session at #INHSU21. Come hear about the progress toward HCV elimination in Australia and where we need to concentrate our efforts to ensure this elimination is equitable.
Check out PhD candidate @banAnnaConway's important on-demand presentation at #INHSU21- using data gathered from ETHOS Engage looking at opioid overdose and naloxone access. Such important data in the context of improving well-being and health outcomes for people who inject drugs.
New study from @ETHOSII ➡️ only a third of people who reported overdose in last year had ever accessed take home naloxone #InternationalOverdoseAwarenessDay Article free here: bit.ly/38uelyt @jasongrebely @INHepSU
Couldn't have been a better trip back to WA! Not only did we recruit 98 people between Next Step East Perth and Joondalup but we also recruited a new ETHOS team mascot. Click to reveal 😍
Thinking of this time last week when we were on our first interstate campaign since 2019 ☀️Thank you, Youth Link Cairns! We enrolled 80 participants over 4 days. That's 80 HCV RNA tests administered in the most tropical point-of-care testing station to date🌴
We enjoyed our time up in Coffs Harbour and second week back on the road with ETHOS Engage Wave 2! POC HCV RNA tests ✅ Fibroscans ✅ Big 🍌 ✅✅. Big thanks to Alex Wade and all other Mid North Coast LHD staff
Wave 2 is back on after a 6 month hiatus! The world might be operating a little differently now, but that didn’t stop us from enrolling 66 people into ETHOS over the last week at Kempsey and Port Macquarie. It feels great to be back in clinics engaging PWID with HCV care.
While we are missing our time on the road collecting data for Wave 2, it is great to see these results from Wave 1 in print. This is the result of a massive team effort (see Acknowdgements)- thank you to all involved.
