Background To-date, Rift Valley fever (RVF) outbreaks have occurred in 38 of the 69 administrative districts in Kenya. Using surveillance records collected between 1951 and 2007, we determined the risk of exposure and outcome of an RVF outbreak, examined the ecological and climatic factors assoc...

East-Africa is highly vulnerable to climate variability and adverse effects of climate change. This has made it a challenge to predictors of early warning systems. Extended and above normal rainfall across arid and semi-arid Africa after a warm phase of El Niño creates conditions favourable for o...

Extended and above normal rainfall across (semi-) arid Africa after a warm phase of El Niño creates conditions favorable for outbreak of Rift Valley Fever (RVF); a vector borne disease. There have been two major epizootics in the Horn of Africa in 1997/98 and 2006/07 that had the highest mortalit...

Introduction Rift valley fever (RVF) is a viral zoonotic disease of economic importance caused by a virus of the Phlebovirus genus, Bunyaviridae family. The disease occurs cyclically between 5 to 15 years which is associated with El Nino weather phenomenon. Various studies have been done to map R...
