Background
Brucella spp. is a zoonotic bacterial agent of high public health and socio-economic importance. It infects many species of animals including wildlife, and people may get exposed through direct contact with an infected animal or consumption of raw or undercooked animal products. A link...

Rift Valley fever (RVF) is a zoonotic vector-borne disease present in much of Africa,
and the Arabic peninsula. During outbreaks, the case fatality is high in young
ruminants and there may be abortion storms, human disease is usually mild but
some may suffer fatal hemorrhagic fever. Outbreaks in ...

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...
