Assessing social contact patterns before and during COVID-19 pandemic in Greece

Social contacts surveys are performed in multiple time points during the pandemic. Participants report the total number of contacts that they had on the day before the survey. The first survey was implemented in March-April 2020; in that survey, social contacts data were collected for the period before the pandemic as well.

2009 H1N1 Pandemic - Assessment of attack rate, ICU admission and case fatality rates in Greece

Data on influenza-like illness were collected through cross-sectional nationwide telephone surveys of 1,000 households in Greece repeated for 25 consecutive weeks (2009-2010) and were combined with data from H1N1 virologic surveillance to estimate the incidence and the clinical attack rate of influenza A(H1N1).

HIVE - Enhancing Multiple Long Term Conditions management for HIV populations through Implementation research, evidence-based interventions, and integration of NCD care in LMIC contexts with a focus on Viability and Equity


HIVE adopts an Implementation Research Framework to support integrated care and management of HIV and concomitant NCDs leveraging an mHealth application tailored for the (self-)management of multiple long-term conditions for PLWH. This initiative also incorporates interpersonal counselling (IPC) for vital psychosocial support and integration of NCDs care into HIV clinics. The mHealth application will build on an existing digital health tool developed by HIVE partner, Columbia University, which has already been piloted in several low- and middle-income countries .
