What is it about?

Scientific research is the basis for sound planning and management of all resources and, as such, is the key to the future health and prosperity of all humanity. Uncertainty drives scientific curiosity and thirst for knowledge and solutions, but it can also lead to insecurity, anxiety, and fear. However, few will dispute that life on earth is becoming increasingly threatened by public/environmental health problems, issues that can be commonly linked to unregulated human activities and irresponsible policymaking. But, how has these public/environmental health problems affected our future and how can they be resolved? Such questions are clearly very difficult to answer, but where there is will, there is hope, and scientists throughout the world diligently continue with their painstaking efforts to understand the issues and develop effective solutions.

Why is it important?

The aim of the study is to contribute new ideas to the general direction of the country continuity plan both at the National and State level and to create a space to generate dialog important in shaping and responding to questions about the drive in addressing innovative research in secondary-use of health data for immunization and vaccination. While, emerging young scientists have an especially important role to play toward enhancing universal health coverage. They have inherited public/environmental health issues through no fault of their own but are able to bring fresh vitality and new perspectives that can drive research and innovation forward into uncharted territories.

Perspectives

This study represent the hope for the future and deserve support by every means possible. As the amount of assistance a researcher receives has to be more nuanced when it is received than just extending simple blanket to all and sundry. Researcher thus, requires a novel system of reward as well as recognition to deal with the pandemic’s uneven impact. Thus, evidence for action need to prioritizes research to evaluate specific interventions (e.g., policies, programs, practices) that have the potential to counteract the harms of structural and improve health, well-being, and equity outcomes. This requires equal investment in implementation planning evidence and resources to ensuring research products and practices are implemented to achieve positive impact for the end-user
