An outbreak of the viral zoonotic disease Rift Valley fever in East Africa in 2006/07 left more than 300 people dead and caused economic losses in Kenya alone estimated to exceed USD 30 million. Participatory studies undertaken shortly after the outbreaks abated enabled valuable lessons to be lea...

To capture lessons from the 2007 Rift Valley fever (RVF) outbreak, epidemiological studies were carried out in Kenya and Tanzania. Somali pastoralists proved to be adept at recognizing symptoms of RVF and risk factors such as heavy rainfall and mosquito swarms. Sandik, which means "bloody nose," ...

We implemented a cross-sectional study in Tana River County, Kenya, a Rift Valley fever (RVF)-endemic area, to quantify the strength of association between RVF virus (RVFv) seroprevalences in livestock and humans, and their respective intra-cluster correlation coefficients (ICCs). The study invol...
