Rift valley fever on the east coast of Madagascar
Research in Virology, 1991In March 1990, a Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) outbreak was suspected in the district of Fenerive on the east coast of Madagascar after an abnormally high incidence of abortions and disease in livestock. Sera from humans and cattle were tested for RVFV antibodies by immunofluorescence assay (IFA) and ELISA-IgM capture. Sera and mosquitoes collected in

East Coast Fever (ECF) (Box I) is a disease of cattle in East Africa caused by species of Theileria transmitted by the brown ear tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus (Fig. 3). In the past, E C F has been controlled by reducing tick infestations through strict short-interval acaricide application, adherence to legislation on cattle movements and quarantine,

An epidemiological model of East Coast Fever in African livestock
Ecological Modelling, 2009An epidemiological model of the dynamics of East Coast Fever (ECF) in East Africa caused by the protozoan parasite Theileria parva and transmitted by the brown-ear tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus was developed. In the model, ticks are assigned to either on-host or off-host categories both of which differ in their capacity to receive and transmit the ...
