The major factors associated with epidemiology of ECF include the agro-ecological zone (AEZ), livestock production system (LPS) and both animal breed and age. These factors appear to...
Background Rift Valley Fever (RVF) is a viral zoonosis and a mosquito-borne disease caused by a phlebovirus in the family Bunyaviridae. It affects livestock, humans and wildlife. Epidemic outbreaks of RVF in East Africa, which occur after heavy rainfalls in cycles of 5-15 years, have caused next ...
Rift Valley fever virus (RVFv) is a mosquito-borne pathogen of livestock, wildlife and humans that causes severe outbreaks in intervals of several years. One of the open questions is how the virus persists between outbreaks. We developed a spatially-explicit, individual-based simulation model of ...
Outbreaks of H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) occurred in 11 countries in Africa between the years 2006 – 2008. Kenya did not get exposed to the disease but as the perceived risk of introduction of the HPAI virus heightened, the demand for poultry and poultry products waned. This res...
