The purpose of the study was to characterize the differences in epidemiology (risks of infection. morbidity. mortality) and potential control of East Coast fever (ECF) between the selected strata. Evidence of Theileria parva infection was assessed by increased antibody levels as measured in an in...

An observational longitudinal study was carried out on 92 randomly selected smallholder farms in two coastal lowland zones of Kwale District in Kenya between December 1997 and November 1999. The objective was to estimate the incidence of the main vector-transmitted diseases in pre-weaned calves. ...

A prospective observational study was conducted among smallholder dairy farmers in Murang'a District, Kenya, to estimate the incidence of Theileria parva infections, as well as calf morbidity and mortality caused by the infection. The study was conducted between March 1995 and August 1996, in fiv...

In a cross-sectional study carried out in June 1994, 486 cattle from 50 randomly selected dairy farms in the vicinity of Kampala, Uganda, were examined for trypanosome infections. The trypanosome prevalence (either positive with the haematocrit centrifugation technique [HCT] and/or the mini-anion...

This paper studies East Coast fever (Theileria parva infection) risk in four district smallholder-farming areas of Kenya representing a range of epidemiological states of the disease. The areas include Kakamega, where indigenous cattle are intensively grazed with minimal tick control under modera...
