Effectively preventing and controlling zoonotic diseases requires a One Health approach that involves collaboration across sectors responsible for human health, animal health (both domestic wildlife), the environment, as well other partners. Here we describe Generalizable Framework (GOHF), five-step framework provides structure using in disease programs being implemented at local, sub-national, national, regional, or international level. Part of is toolkit compiles existing resources...
Abstract Most infectious diseases that recently emerged in humans originated animals. Besides close contact between animals and humans, other factors probably contribute to the cross-species transmission of diseases. It is critical establish effective mechanisms for coordination collaboration animal, human, environmental health sectors before new threats emerge by bringing different together tackle endemic zoonotic greatest concern. Such multisectoral partnerships should begin identifying...
In 2003, human monkeypox was first identified in the United States. The outbreak associated with exposure to infected prairie dogs, but potential for person-to-person transmission a concern. This study examines health care worker (HCW) 3 patients confirmed monkeypox.Exposed HCWs, defined as HCWs who entered 2-m radius surrounding case monkeypox, were by infection-control practitioners. A self-administered questionnaire and analysis of paired serum specimens determined status, immune...
Among all influenza viruses assessed using CDC's Influenza Risk Assessment Tool (IRAT), the Asian lineage avian A(H7N9) virus (Asian H7N9), first reported in China March 2013,* is ranked as with highest potential pandemic risk (1). During October 1, 2016-August 7, 2017, National Health and Family Planning Commission of China; CDC, Taiwan; Hong Kong Centre for Protection; Macao CDC 759 human infections H7N9 viruses, including 281 deaths, to World Organization (WHO), making this largest five...
In Bangladesh, live bird market environments are frequently contaminated with avian influenza viruses. Shop-level biosecurity practices might increase risk for environmental contamination. We sought to determine which shop-level were associated surveyed 800 poultry shops describe and collect samples. Samples from 205 (26%) positive A viral RNA, 108 (14%) H9, 60 (8%) H5. Shops that slaughtered poultry, kept overnight, remained open without rest days, had uneven muddy floors, held on the...
Abstract Cross-species virus transmission events can lead to dire public health emergencies in the form of epidemics and pandemics. One example animals is emergence H3N8 equine influenza (EIV), first isolated 1963 Miami, FL, USA, after emerging among horses South America. In early 21st century, American lineage EIV diverged into two ‘Florida’ clades that persist today, while an transferred dogs around 1999 gave rise canine (CIV), reported 2004. Here, we compare CIV reveal their host-specific...
<h3>Objective</h3> To describe a cluster of human monkeypox cases associated with exposure to ill prairie dogs in home child care. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> We identified all persons exposed 2 pet County A, Indiana; performed active surveillance for symptomatic infection; and evaluated the types that may have resulted infection. For children who attended care where animals were housed, we also measured rate seroconversion virus. <h3>Main Outcome Measures</h3> Nine (13%) 70...
Abstract Objective —To estimate West Nile virus (WNV) infection rates, assess environmental variables that correlated with seropositivity in dogs and cats, whether pets should be considered as possible sentinels for WNV therefore of potential human exposure. Design —Cross-sectional serosurvey. Animals —442 138 cats. Procedure —Serum samples were screened against by use the plaque reduction neutralization test. Results —116 (26%) 13 (9%) cats yielded positive results. The odds outdoor-only...
After an outbreak of West Nile virus (WNV) infections in Slidell, Louisiana, 2002, we detected neutralizing antibodies to WNV 13 120 mammals, representing five six species sampled. Seroprevalence was measured opossum, Didelphis virginiana (75%, n = 8), raccoons, Procyon lotor (60%, 5), black rats, Rattus rattus (6%, 36), hispid cotton Sigmodon hispidus (4%, 24), and eastern gray squirrels, Sciurus carolinensis (2%, 43).
Chlorination destroys pathogens in swimming pool water, but by-products of chlorination can cause human illness. We investigated outbreaks ocular and respiratory symptoms associated with chlorinated indoor pools at two hotels.We interviewed registered guests companions who stayed hotels X Y within 2 days outbreak onset. performed bivariate stratified analyses, calculated relative risks (RR), conducted environmental investigations areas.Of 77 hotel X, 47 (61%) completed questionnaires. Among...
During February 2013-March 2015, a total of 602 human cases low pathogenic avian influenza A(H7N9) were reported; no autochthonous reported outside mainland China. In contrast, since highly A(H5N1) reemerged during 2003 in China, 784 16 countries and poultry outbreaks 53 have been reported. Whether the absence China represents lack spread or detection remains unclear. We compared epidemiologic virologic features used animal surveillance data collected April 2013-May 2014 from 4 Southeast...
In 2003, a major power outage occurred in the midwest and northeast United States affecting some 50 million people. The outages affected multiple systems state local municipalities and, turn, public health.Semi-structured interviews were conducted using open-ended questionnaires, with convenience sample of state- locally selected subject matter experts from Ohio, Michigan, New York. Respondents interviewed groups representing one five areas interest, including: (1) emergency preparedness;...
Mutation and reassortment of highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1) viruses at the animal-human interface remain a major concern for emergence with pandemic potential. To understand relationship H5N1 circulating in poultry those isolated from humans, comprehensive phylogenetic molecular analyses collected both hosts Vietnam between 2003 2010 were performed. We examined temporal spatial distribution human cases relative to outbreaks characterized genetic lineages amino acid substitutions...
We conducted environmental surveillance to detect avian influenza viruses circulating at live poultry markets (LPMs) and farms in Guangxi Autonomous Region, China, where near the China-Vietnam border. From November through April 2017-2018 2018-2019, we collected samples from 14 LPMs, 4 farms, 5 households with backyard two counties of tested for A, H5, H7, H9 by real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR). In addition, four cross-sectional questionnaire surveys among...
Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 is endemic in Vietnamese poultry and has caused sporadic human infection Vietnam since 2003. Human infections with HPAI are of concern due to a high mortality rate the potential for emergence pandemic viruses sustained human-to-human transmission. Viruses isolated from humans southern have been classified as clade 1 single genome constellation (VN3) their earliest detection This consistent this clade/genotype Mekong River Delta surrounding...

<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Avian influenza (AI) virus detections occurred frequently in 2022 and continue to pose a health, economic, food security risk. The most recent global analysis of official reports animal outbreaks human infections with all reportable AI viruses was published almost decade ago. Increased or renewed viruses, especially high pathogenicity H5N8 H5N1 birds H5N1, H5N8, H5N6 humans globally, have established the need for comprehensive review current surveillance data...
