Abstract The rapid intensification of the livestock sector in Southeast Asia has been found to be associated with an expanding use of antibiotics (ABU) and the rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in both humans and livestock. This study aimed to explore the views and practices of commercial pig, poultry and fish farmers regarding antibiotics in Lao PDR, where data on antibiotic use and AMR remain scarce. A multistage cluster sampling method, based on the random selection of villages in two provinces of Vientiane, was used. A total of 364 farmers, corresponding to 454 farm units, were survey ..read more

Modelling the field personnel resources to control foot‐and‐mouth disease outbreaks in New Zealand
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases
by Robert L. Sanson, Thomas G. Rawdon, Mary Andel, Zhidong Yu
1y ago
Abstract The objective of the study was to simulate New Zealand's foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) operational plan to determine personnel requirements for a FMD response and understand how the numbers of frontline staff available could affect the size and duration of FMD outbreaks, when using stamping-out (SO) measures with or without vaccination. The model utilized a national dataset of all known livestock farms. Each simulation randomly seeded infection into a single farm. Transmission mechanisms included direct and indirect contacts, local and airborne spread. Prior to each simulation, the num ..read more

A scoping review of foot‐and‐mouth disease risk, based on spatial and spatio‐temporal analysis of outbreaks in endemic settings
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases

1y ago
Abstract Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is one of the most important transboundary animal diseases affecting livestock and wildlife species worldwide. Sustained viral circulation, as evidenced by serological surveys and the recurrence of outbreaks, suggests endemic transmission cycles in some parts of Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. This is the result of a complex process in which multiple serotypes, multi-host interactions and numerous socio-epidemiological factors converge to facilitate disease introduction, survival and spread. Spatial and spatio-temporal analysis have been increasingly us ..read more

Abstract Bats are important reservoirs for alpha- and beta-coronaviruses. Coronaviruses (CoV) have been detected in pteropodid bats from several Southeast Asian countries, but little is known about coronaviruses in the Indonesian archipelago in proportion to its mammalian biodiversity. In this study, we screened pooled fecal samples from Indonesian colonies of Pteropus spp. with unbiased next generation sequencing. Bat CoVs related to Rousettus leschenaultii CoV HKU9 and Eidolon helvum CoV were detected. The 121 fecal samples were further screened using a conventional hemi-nested pan-coronavir ..read more

Abstract Brucellosis is one of the most common neglected zoonotic diseases globally, with a public health significance and a high economic loss in the livestock industry caused by the bacteria of the genus Brucella. In this study, 136 Egyptian B. melitensis strains isolated from animals and humans between 2001 and 2020 were analyzed by examining the whole core-genome single nucleotide polymorphism (cgSNP) in comparison to the in silico multilocus variable number of tandem repeat analysis (MLVA-16). Almost all Egyptian isolates were belonging to the West Mediterranean clade, except two isolates ..read more

Glass eels and viruses – a lesson learnt from stocking the eastern German Baltic Sea coast

Abstract Concerns about Anguillid herpesvirus 1 (AngHV-1) in European eels, especially due to stocking measures, is increasingly coming into focus and raises questions regarding disease monitoring and prevention. In the past, stocking of AngHV-1-positive eels into waters assumed AngHV-1-free has led to a rapid increase of infected eels in the wild. For this study, a glass eel stocking experiment was conducted in the eastern German Baltic coast from 2014 - 2016. Retrospective analysis of stocked glass eels shows, that virus prevalence varied from 5.3 – 37.4 % during stocking years and appeared ..read more

In silico strategies to identify protein‐protein interaction modulator in cell‐to‐cell transmission of SARS CoV2

Abstract RNA sequence data from SARS CoV2 patients helps to construct a gene network related to this disease. A detailed analysis of the human host response to SARS CoV2 with expression profiling by high throughput sequencing has been accomplished with primary human lung epithelial cell lines. Using this data, the clustered gene annotation and gene network construction are performed with the help of the String database. Among the four clusters identified, only one with 44 genes could be annotated. Interestingly, this corresponded to basal cells with p = 1.37e-05, which is relevant for respirat ..read more

Estimating transmission dynamics of African swine fever virus from experimental studies

1y ago
Summary African swine fever virus (ASFV) continues to spread across the world, and currently, there are no treatments or vaccines available to combat this virus. Reliable estimates of transmission parameters for ASFV are therefore needed to establish effective contingency plans. This study used data from controlled ASFV inoculations of pigs to assess the transmission parameters. Three models were developed with (binary, piecewise-linear and exponential) time dependent levels of infectiousness based on latency periods of three to five days derived from the analysis of 294 ethylenediamine tetraa ..read more
