Campylobacter is a major zoonotic foodborne pathogen that poses significant public health threat, particularly among children and immunocompromised individuals. However, data on the occurrence sources of infection remain scarce in Ethiopia. This study assessed occurrence, diversity, relationships between from diarrheic potential exposure using whole-genome sequencing. Through case-based tracing, animal, food, environmental samples were collected Harar town Kersa district November 2021...

Introduction Infections caused by Campylobacter spp. represent a severe threat to public health worldwide. National action plans have included source attribution studies as way quantify the contribution of specific sources and understand dynamic transmission foodborne pathogens like Salmonella . Such information is crucial for implementing targeted intervention. The aim this study was predict human campylobacteriosis cases across multiple countries using available whole-genome sequencing...
Abstract Background Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli are the most common causes of bacterial enteritis worldwide whereas symptomatic asymptomatic infections associated with stunting in children low- middle-income countries. Little is known about their sources transmission pathways countries, particularly for infants young children. We assessed genomic diversity Eastern Ethiopia to determine attribution under 1 year age livestock (chickens, cattle, goats sheep) other humans (siblings,...
Abstract Background Foodborne diseases (FBDs) represent a significant risk to public health, with nearly one in ten people falling ill every year globally. The large incidence of foodborne African low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) shows the immediate need for action, but there is still far robust efficient outbreak detection system. heavily relies on clinical diagnosis, which are often delayed or ignored due resource limitations inadequate surveillance systems. Methods In total, 68...
