    Abstract Aims: The protracted COVID-19 pandemic has overwhelmed health systems globally, including many aspects of cancer control. This has underscored the multidimensional nature of cancer control, which requires a more comprehensive approach involving taking a wider perspective of health systems. Here, we investigated aspects of health system resilience in maintaining cancer services globally during the COVID-19 pandemic. This will allow for health systems to be resilient to different types of system stressors/shocks in the future, to allow cancer care to be maintained optimally.
    Materials and methods: Using the World Health Organization health system framework (capturing aspects of service delivery, health workforce, information, medical products, vaccines and technologies, financing and governance and leadership), we carried out a comparative analysis of the impact of COVID-19 and the synthesis of the findings in responses in cancer care in 10 countries/jurisdictions across four continents comprising a wide diversity of health systems, geographical regions and socioeconomic status (China, Colombia, Egypt, Hong Kong SAR, Indonesia, India, Singapore, Sri Lanka, UK and Zambia). A combination of literature and document reviews and interviews with experts was used.
    Results: Our study revealed that: (i) underlying weaknesses of health systems before the pandemic were exacerbated by the pandemic (e.g. economic issues in low- and middle-income countries led to greater shortage of medication and resource constraints compounded by inadequacies of public financing and issues of engagement with stakeholders and leadership/governance); (ii) no universal adaptive strategies were applicable to all the systems, highlighting the need for health systems to design emergency plans based on local context; (iii) despite the many differences between health systems, common issues were identified, such as the lack of contingency plan for pandemics, inadequate financial policies for cancer patients and lack of evidence-based approaches for competing priorities of cancer care/pandemic control.
    Conclusion: We identified four key points/recommendations to enhance the resilient capacity of cancer care during the COVID-19 pandemic and other system stressors: (i) effective pandemic control approaches in general are essential to maintain the continuity of cancer care during the emergency health crises; (ii) strong health systems (with sufficient cancer care resources, e.g. health workforce, and universal health coverage) are fundamental to maintain quality care; (iii) the ability to develop response strategies and adapt to evolving evidence/circumstances is critical for health system resilience (including introducing systematic, consistent and evidence-based changes, national support and guidance in policy development and implementation); (iv) preparedness and contingency plans for future public health emergencies, engaging the whole of society, to achieve health system resilience for future crises and to transform healthcare delivery beyond the pandemic.

    Abstract Introduction: A new wave of COVID-19 infection has hit China of late and India due to her geographical proximity is at risk. More than 700 doctors in India have died on the frontline during COVID-19. Despite their sacrifices and service, discretionary behaviour by the public have been frequently reported. Objective: To assess the attitude and perception towards frontline Health Care Workers (HCW’s) among residents of a selected zone of Kolkata (India). Method: An observational study of cross-sectional design was performed in December 2022, using a pre-designedstructured questionnaire, that was sent to the registered email address of the families residing in the selected area of a zone located in Southern Kolkataand response from one eligible member per family was assessed. Of 142 families residing in the area, responses from 119 families were obtained. Results: Most participants agreed or strongly agreed to co-operating with HCW’s during door-to-door screening campaigns and supporting their families (94.8% and 83.7% respectively). Majority (74.4%) favoured functioning of private clinics; however, 60.7% didn’t want to allow doctors to work post-COVID recovery. Though 64.9% believed HCW’s were taking adequate measures to contain disease spread, 77.8% wanted to maintain more than required ‘safe distance’ from them and 35.1% favoured keeping them away from neighbourhood. About 67% thought HCW’s were properly trained and equipped to handle COVID-19 cases (47.8%). Participants with age more than 33 years (p=0.030), males (p=0.044) and who sought health advice in last month (p=0.016)were found to have a favourable attitude. Conclusion: The study finds a mixed opinion in the public about HCWs. Considering the difficulties faced byHCWs, which affected the functioning of the healthcare system, this scenario can be tricky while tackling similar emergencies of the future. Hence, measures to reduce societal stigma against HCWs is of great necessity.
