Significance Antimicrobials are used in livestock production to maintain health and productivity. These practices contribute the spread of drug-resistant pathogens both humans, posing a significant public threat. We present first global map (228 countries) antibiotic consumption conservatively estimate total 2010 at 63,151 tons. project that antimicrobial will rise by 67% 2030, nearly double Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa. This is likely be driven growth consumer demand for...
Abstract The global population at risk from mosquito-borne diseases—including dengue, yellow fever, chikungunya and Zika—is expanding in concert with changes the distribution of two key vectors: Aedes aegypti albopictus . these species is largely driven by both human movement presence suitable climate. Using statistical mapping techniques, we show that patterns explain spread Europe United States following their introduction. We find Ae. characterized long distance importations, while has...
Abstract Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral infection that has spread throughout the tropical world over past 60 years and now affects half world’s population. The geographical range of dengue expected to further expand due ongoing global phenomena including climate change urbanization. We applied statistical mapping techniques most extensive database case locations date predict environmental suitability for virus as 2015. then made use climate, population socioeconomic projections 2020, 2050...
Livestock antibiotic resistance Most use is for livestock, and it growing with the increase in global demand meat. It unclear what antibiotics means occurrence of drug animals risk to humans. Van Boeckel et al. describe burden antimicrobial on basis systematic reviews over past 20 years (see Perspective by Moore). There a clear number resistant bacterial strains occurring chickens pigs. The current study provides much-needed baseline model low- middle-income countries “one health”...
Livestock contributes directly to the livelihoods and food security of almost a billion people affects diet health many more. With estimated standing populations 1.43 cattle, 1.87 sheep goats, 0.98 pigs, 19.60 chickens, reliable accessible information on distribution abundance livestock is needed for reasons. These include analyses social economic aspects sector; environmental impacts such as production management waste, greenhouse gas emissions livestock-related land-use change; large-scale...
Significance Knowing where people are is critical for accurate impact assessments and intervention planning, particularly those focused on population health, food security, climate change, conflicts, natural disasters. This study demonstrates how data collected by mobile phone network operators can cost-effectively provide detailed maps of distribution over national scales any time period while guaranteeing users’ privacy. The methods outlined may be applied to estimate human densities in...
Consider user fees and regulatory caps on veterinary use
The spatial distribution of populations and settlements across a country their interconnectivity accessibility from urban areas are important for delivering healthcare, distributing resources economic development. However, existing spatially explicit population data Africa generally based on outdated, low resolution input demographic data, provide insufficient detail to quantify rural settlement patterns and, thus, accurately measure concentration accessibility. Here we outline approaches...
Abstract Global data sets on the geographic distribution of livestock are essential for diverse applications in agricultural socio-economics, food security, environmental impact assessment and epidemiology. We present a new version Gridded Livestock World (GLW 3) database, reflecting most recently compiled harmonized subnational 2010. GLW 3 provides global population densities cattle, buffaloes, horses, sheep, goats, pigs, chickens ducks each land pixel at spatial resolution 0.083333 decimal...
Demand for animal protein is rising globally and has been facilitated by the expansion of intensive farming. However, production relies on regular use antimicrobials to maintain health productivity farms. The routine fuels development antimicrobial resistance, a growing threat humans animals. Monitoring global trends in essential track progress associated with stewardship efforts across regions. We collected sales data chicken, cattle, pig systems 41 countries 2017 projected consumption from...
Globally aquaculture contributes 8% of animal protein intake to the human diet, and per capita consumption is increasing faster than meat dairy consumption. Reports have documented antimicrobial use in rapidly expanding industry, which may contribute rise resistance, carrying potential consequences for animal-, human-, ecosystem-health. However, quantitative across a highly diversified industry not well characterized. Here, we estimate global trends 2017 2030 help target future surveillance...
Thailand has recently had 3 epidemic waves of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI); virus was again detected in July 2005. Risk factors need to be identified better understand disease ecology and assist HPAI surveillance detection. This study analyzed the spatial distribution outbreaks relation poultry, land use, other anthropogenic variables from start second wave (July 2004-May 2005). Results demonstrate a strong association between H5N1 abundance free-grazing ducks and, lesser extent,...
The highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 virus that emerged in southern China the mid-1990s has recent years evolved into first HPAI panzootic. In many countries where was detected, successfully controlled, whereas other face periodic reoccurrence despite significant control efforts. A central question is to understand factors favoring continuing of virus. abundance domestic ducks, particular free-grazing ducks feeding intensive rice cropping areas, been identified as one such risk...
Use of antimicrobials in farming has enabled the growth intensive animal production and helped meeting global increase demand for protein. However, widespread use veterinary drives antimicrobial resistance, with important consequences health, potentially human health. Global monitoring is essential: first, to track progress reducing reliance on antimicrobials. Second, identify countries where antimicrobial-stewardship efforts should be targeted curb resistance. Data usage food animals were...
Brucellosis, a zoonotic disease, was made statutorily notifiable in China 1955. We analyzed the incidence and spatial-temporal distribution of human brucellosis during 1955-2014 using surveillance data: aggregated data for 1955-2003 individual case 2004-2014. A total 513,034 cases were recorded, which 99.3% reported northern 1955-2014, 69.1% (258, 462/374, 141) occurred February-July 1990-2014. Incidence remained high 1955-1978 (interquartile range 0.42-1.0 cases/100,000 residents), then...
Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 was first encountered in 1996 Guangdong province (China) and started spreading throughout Asia the western Palearctic 2004–2006. Compared to several other countries where HPAI distribution has been studied some detail, little is known about environmental correlates of China. clinical disease outbreaks, virus (HPAIV) isolated from active risk-based surveillance sampling domestic poultry (referred as HPAIV positives this manuscript) were modeled...
