Social contact information from PIPSA residents in uMkhanyakude before and during the Covid-19 pandemic – data from the Umoya Omuhle and Covid Social Contacts studies

South Africa | ZA |
This data collection combines information collected as part of two studies, both asking about the physical and close social contact behaviour of PIPSA residents in the context of respiratory infectious diseases. The Umoya omuhle study, conducted in 2019, asked respondents to provide detailed information on the people they had prolonged close contact with (physical or conversational) on a recent day, and where they travelled and spent time indoors. The Covid Social Contact study repeated many of these measures from June 2020 onwards, during Covid-related lockdowns. The data collection was created in order to measure how behaviours, and thus risk for respiratory infection, changed over the intervening year.

Umoya omuhle: Sampled 3093 census adults (aged 18 and above) residing within the census surveillance area and the catchment area of two primary care centres (one in town, one rural). Sampling was random, stratified by residential area (~350 households per area) and with probability proportional to the number of eligible people in each area, based on the most recent census conducted prior to area entry.
Covid Social Contacts: An age/sex stratified sample of one person aged 15 and above from each of 400 census households. Inclusion criteria included participation in Vuk'uzazi, a recent population-wide chronic health screening study, allowing intentional oversampling of individuals with locally prevalent health conditions (tuberculosis, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, COPD or asthma). Contact was made telephonically based on previously provided numbers.
