Significance Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) is a zoonotic disease of global health concern, and dromedary camels are the source human infection. Although Africa has largest number camels, MERS-coronavirus (MERS-CoV) endemic in these locally acquired MERS not reported from Africa. However, little known genetic or phenotypic characterization MERS-CoV In this study we characterize Burkina Faso, Nigeria, Morocco, Ethiopia. We demonstrate viral differences viruses West Africa, which may...
A cross-sectional study based on a questionnaire survey was conducted to determine the distribution of lumpy skin disease (LSD) and associated risk factors in three main agro-climatic zones Ethiopia. total 330 surveys were collected from 44 peasant associations (PA) distributed 15 districts. Across agro-climate zones, herd-level LSD prevalence midland significantly higher 55.2% [95% confidence interval (CI) 47.5-62.6] than highland lowland zones. Overall observed at animal-level 8.1% (95% CI...
A cross-sectional study was carried out in 2005 and 2006 three geographical areas of Madagascar to investigate differentiate swine farm management biosecurity practices smallholder farming communities. Questionnaire data from a total 709 pig farms were analysed using multiple factor analysis (MFA) hierarchical cluster (HCA). Variables describing organised into five groups: structure the farm, animal-contacts, person- vehicle-contacts, feeding, sanitary aspects. In general, few measures...
Late in 2007, veterinary, medical and anthropological professionals from Europe Africa met a 2-day workshop Pretoria, South Africa, to evaluate the burden, surveillance control of zoonotic tuberculosis brucellosis sub-Saharan Africa. Keynote presentations reviewed burden these diseases on human livestock health, existing diagnostic tools, available methods. These were followed by group discussions formulation recommendations.The presence Mycobacterium bovis Brucella spp. was considered be...
Beginning in 2003, highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 virus spread across Southeast Asia, causing unprecedented epidemics. Thailand was massively infected 2004 and 2005 continues today to experience sporadic outbreaks. While research findings suggest that the of HPAI is influenced primarily by trade patterns, identifying anthropogenic risk factors involved remains a challenge. In this study, we investigated which played role using outbreak data from "second wave" epidemic (3 July...
As Southeast Asia (SEA) is characterized by high human and domestic animal densities, growing intensification of trade, drastic land use changes biodiversity erosion, this region appears to be a hotspot study complex dynamics zoonoses emergence health issues at the Animal-Human-Environment interface. Zoonotic diseases environmental can have devastating socioeconomic wellbeing impacts. Assessing managing related risks implies take into account ecological social play, in link with...

Abstract To clarify the role of bats in ecology Ebola viruses, we assessed prevalence virus antibodies a large-scale sample collected during 2015–2017 from countries Africa that have had previous outbreaks (Guinea, Democratic Republic Congo) or are at high risk for (Cameroon). We analyzed 4,022 blood samples >12 frugivorous and 27 insectivorous species; 2–37 (0.05%–0.92%) were seropositive Zaire 0–30 (0%–0.75%) Sudan viruses. observed 1 bat genus 6 species. Certain species widespread across...
Flavie Goutard and colleagues call for concerted multisectoral measures through stronger policies to combat antimicrobial resistance
Pig production and pork consumption are very important to the People's Republic of China for both economic cultural reasons. The incursion spread a disease such as African swine fever (ASF), which emerged in Eastern Europe 2007, could have devastating socioeconomic consequences Chinese global pig industry. government consequently attributes high priority ASF is actively seeking improve its preparedness. This paper discusses different drivers pathways potential emergence light country's...
Understanding Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) transmission in dromedary camels is important, as they consitute a source of zoonotic infection to humans. To identify risk factors for MERS-CoV bred diverse conditions Burkina Faso, Ethiopia and Morocco, blood samples nasal swabs were sampled February–March 2015. A relatively high RNA rate was detected (up 15.7%; 95% confidence interval (CI): 8.2–28.0), followed by Faso 12.2%; CI: 7–20.4) Morocco 7.6%; 1.9–26.1). The...
Peste des petits ruminants (PPR), a devastating viral disease of sheep and goats, has been targeted by the global community for eradication within next 15 years. Although an efficacious attenuated live vaccine is available, lack knowledge about transmission potential PPR virus (PPRV) may compromise efforts. By fitting metapopulation model simulating PPRV spread to results nationwide serological survey in Ethiopia, we estimated level endemic setting vaccination coverage required elimination....
Abstract While predicting the course of an epidemic is difficult, a pandemic from emerging virus even more so. The validity most predictive models relies on numerous parameters, involving biological and social characteristics often unknown or highly uncertain. Data COVID-19 epidemics in China, Japan, South Korea Italy were used to build up deterministic without strong assumptions. These then applied other countries identify closest scenarios order foresee their coming behaviour. enabled...
