We find the Ritu program has a strong effect on changing self-reported explicit attitudes among parents: parents in the treatment group are more likely to agree that menstruating girls should be able to cook, play with friends, eat white foods and wash clothes. We also find they are more likely to report their own daughter(s) are allowed to undertake these activities during their period. Implicit attitudes as measured by our IAT are unaffected by the Ritu program. Even while implicit attitudes stay unchanged, conscious (explicit) beliefs about the ability and effectiveness of supporting girls during their menstruation and sending girls to school (among other things) clearly adapt in response to the Ritu intervention. This can at least partially explain the observed improvements in outcomes related to school attendance and psychosocial wellbeing.<br><br>Our findings provide some of the first robust evidence of the role of (public) menstrual health programs like Ritu on parental attitudes that possibly provide a first step towards mitigating adverse outcomes for adolescent girls.<br>","PeriodicalId":13563,"journal":{"name":"Insurance & Financing in Health Economics eJournal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84348359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Within a year, over ninety million people had been infected and two million had died. Amid all the death and desolation, humanity’s ingenuity and willpower emerged in history’s greatest vaccine race. The global community sought to find novel ways to protect innovation and intellectual property while still collaborating to roll out a vaccine in record time. Despite the presence of compulsory licensing provisions like 28 U.S.C. § 1498 and the Bayh-Dole Act in the U.S., and the TRIPS Agreement at the international level, the journey has been difficult, and thousands died while international players protected proprietary information and ensured that their countries’ citizens are first in line for the vaccine. Although dubbed a “once in a lifetime pandemic,” the COVID-19 outbreak provides a unique opportunity to contemplate ways to unify the world through intellectual property during a time of crisis, as well as a grim portent of what will become the new norm if we do not. This Article examines the impact and effectiveness of intellectual property licensing provisions across the world to suggest improvements that might result in a quicker and more efficient response to future global health crises. By examining and learning from the plagues of the present, we might preserve the health of our future.","PeriodicalId":13563,"journal":{"name":"Insurance & Financing in Health Economics eJournal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84076487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, the presented models can be used to assess the impact on the economy of a specific country or group of countries of changes in prices for hydrocarbon energy resources. In modern realities, GVAR models are used to assess the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the global economy in general, and on individual countries.","PeriodicalId":13563,"journal":{"name":"Insurance & Financing in Health Economics eJournal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83794673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional epidemiology models, such as the SIR model, are not equipped to handle these behavioral based changes. We propose a novel multipeak SIR model, which can detect and model the waves of the disease. We bring together the SIR model’s compartmental structure with a change-point detection martingale process to identify new waves. We create a dynamic process where new waves can be flagged and learned in real time. We use this approach to extend the traditional SEIRD model into a multipeak SEIRD model and test it on forecasting COVID-19 cases from the John Hopkins University dataset for states in the United States. We found that compared to the traditional SEIRD model, the multipeak SEIRD model improves MAPE by 10%-15% for the United States, and by 25%-40% in the specific regions that were hit by the multiple waves. We then pair this model with an optimization model for testing, which is critical in managing the epidemic and which significantly outperforms alternative testing strategies (more than 57% in detection rate). We show how to prioritize symptomatic, asymptomatic and contact tracing populations, most interestingly when balancing testing early to reach contact tracers and saving tests for later when the epidemic is worse.","PeriodicalId":13563,"journal":{"name":"Insurance & Financing in Health Economics eJournal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82772711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
