    Abstract Global health leaders evoked the concept of "solidarity" to unite citizens in efforts to contain the COVID-19 pandemic. Historically the term has been used in different domains (politics and labor) and in connection to different crises (refugees, immigration, and climate change). Was "solidarity" a useful rallying cry? To assess the impact of health communication efforts to motivate citizen action, surveys were administered at three key moments in the first two years of the pandemic: June 2020 as cases declined globally (n = 90); October 2020 during the second wave of infections in Europe and the US (n = 96); and March 2021 when vaccines became available to adults (n = 100). Calls for solidarity motivate fleeting efforts, irrespective of perceived risk, and are less likely to inspire action for the public good as compared to other motivators such as team reasoning and compassion. While the pandemic revealed the capacity of citizens to support one another in the absence of state intervention, calls for solidarity are ineffective in inspiring long-term engagements toward a common good.

    Abstract Background: COVID-19's heavy toll on human health, and its concentration within specific at-risk groups including the socially vulnerable and individuals with comorbidities, has made it the focus of much syndemic discourse. Syndemic theory recognizes that social factors create the conditions that support the clustering of diseases and that these diseases interact in a manner that worsens health outcomes. Syndemics theory has helped to facilitate systems-level approaches to disease as a biosocial phenomenon and guide prevention and treatment efforts. Despite its recognized value, reviews of syndemics literature have noted frequent misuse of the concept limiting its potential in guiding appropriate interventions.
    Objective: To review how the term 'syndemic' is defined and applied within peer-reviewed literature in relation to COVID-19.
    Design: A scoping review of definitions within COVID-19 literature published between January 1, 2020 to May 15, 2023 was conducted. Searches took place across six databases: Academic Search Premier, CINAHL, JSTOR, MEDLINE/Pubmed, PsycINFO and Scopus. PRISMA-ScR guidelines were followed.
    Results: Content analysis revealed that COVID-19 has varied clustered configurations of communicable-non-communicable diseases and novel communicable disease interactions. Spatial analysis was presented as a new strategy to evidence syndemic arrangements. However, syndemics continue to be regarded as universal, with continued misunderstanding and misapplication of the concept.
    Conclusion: This review found that current applications of syndemics remain problematic. Recommendations are made on the design of syndemic studies. A syndemic framework offers an opportunity for systems-level thinking that considers the full complexity of human-disease interactions and is useful to inform future pandemic preparations and responses.

    Abstract Evidence from the past 40 years of HIV technology development and implementation indicates that the public health social contract - with its expectations of patient/citizen compliance - has hampered global disease control efforts. Despite the availability of a wide array of effective technologies, including antiretroviral drugs as treatment and prevention, voluntary medical male circumcision procedures, and newly developed intravaginal ring products, new infections among adults globally have not decreased significantly. In this paper, I describe a historical trend of limiting access to effective biomedical technologies to those deemed most deserving and compliant given concerns of misuse (non-adherence), product repurposing (not using the product for purposes originally intended), and the incitement of autonomy (increasing the risk of public exposure to diseases given personal protection from a specific disease). Examining the expectations of good citizenship (compliance, adherence, appropriate product use, and continued risk reduction) as it relates to human-technology interactions, reveals a continuing narrative of initially restricting access to newer technologies perceived fragile or costly based on an assessment of patient/citizen worth. In this, the conventional public health social contract continues to be an obstacle in the advancements of technologies to effectively reduce the global burden of HIV.

  8. Article: The Effects of Water Insecurity and Emotional Distress on Civic Action for Improved Water Infrastructure in Rural South Africa.

    Abstract The South African constitution ratifies water as a human right. Yet millions of citizens remain disconnected from the national water infrastructure. Drawing on data collected in 2013-2014 from women in northern South Africa, this study explores "water citizenship"-individual civic engagement related to improving water service provision. Literature indicates that water insecurity is associated with emotional distress and that water-related emotional distress influences citizen engagement. I extend these lines of research by assessing the connection that water insecurity and emotional distress may collectively have with civic engagement to improve access to water infrastructure.

    Abstract Despite constitutional obligations to provide clean water to all citizens in South Africa, access to water and related services remains highly contested. The discord between constitutional promises and lived realities of water access, particularly through national infrastructure, provides a platform on which to examine Foucauldian notions of biopolitics, the control of populations through technologies of governing. Drawing on the situations of residents in the rural Vhembe district in the north eastern corner of the country, I examine how individuals conceptualize the relationship that exists between citizen and state and the responsibilities of each in post-Apartheid South Africa as it relates to water access. In addition, I describe strategies employed throughout South Africa to voice rights to water and how these approaches are perceived. Finally, I consider how the three primary forms of 'water citizenship'-citizen, agent, and subject-influence the current and future health of vulnerable residents.

    Abstract While COVID-19 has become a global pandemic that has spread to all regions of the globe, local historic, health, and socio-environmental factors shape the epidemiological contours, response, and social challenges present within each affected nation. Thus, while countries like China, Italy, Iran, Brazil, and the United States have all been hard hit by the pandemic, there are critical differences across these nations in a number of variables (e.g. demographic features, health histories, healthcare systems, infection case rates, case fatality rates, national responses). In other words, within the global pandemic there are multiple importantly distinct national epidemics. Overcoming the grave threats to public health presented by COVID-19 requires both international cooperation and country-specific efforts that reflect local histories, needs, and resources. Already concerns are being expressed among health officials about how COVID-19 might be devastating in Africa. Currently, South Africa has the highest number of diagnosed COVID-19 cases on the continent and has been identified as being at high risk in the pandemic. This paper examines the public health response to the COVID-19 threat, how the prior and ongoing HIV and TB epidemics shape the COVID-19 epidemic and influence the response, and the potential ramifications of the response.
