Human Arboviral Infections in Italy: Past, Current, and Future Challenges

Viruses, 2023
Arboviruses represent a public health concern in many European countries, including Italy, mostly because they can infect humans, causing potentially severe emergent or re-emergent diseases, with epidemic outbreaks and the introduction of endemic ...

SARS-CoV-2: Emergence of New Variants and Effectiveness of Vaccines

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants may cause resistance at the immunity level against current vaccines. Some emergent new variants have increased transmissibility, infectivity, hospitalization, and mortality.

Infectious agents present in monk parakeet (Myiopsitta monachus) and rose-ringed parakeet (Psittacula krameri) invasive species in the parks of Madrid and Seville, Spain

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
IntroductionThe introduction of invasive species into an ecosystem could result in biodiversity loss and the spread of infectious agents that could cause re-emergent or emergent zoonotic diseases.

American Mammals Susceptibility to Dengue According to Geographical, Environmental, and Phylogenetic Distances

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
Many human emergent and re-emergent diseases have a sylvatic cycle. Yet, little effort has been put into discovering and modeling the wild mammal reservoirs of dengue (DENV), particularly in the Americas.

Experimental natural transmission (seeder pig) models for reproduction of swine dysentery.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Swine dysentery is causally associated with Brachyspira hampsonii and B. hyodysenteriae infection. Given the importance of transmission models in understanding re-emergent diseases and developing control strategies such as vaccines, the objective of this

Subclinical infection occurs frequently following low dose exposure to prions by blood transfusion

Scientific Reports, 2022
Infectious prion diseases have very long incubation periods, and the role that subclinical infections play in transmission, persistence and re-emergence of these diseases is unclear.

Some considerations concerning the challenge of incorporating social variables into epidemiological models of infectious disease transmission [PDF]

, 2015
Incorporation of ‘social’ variables into epidemiological models remains a challenge. Too much detail and models cease to be useful; too little and the very notion of infection —a highly social process in human populations—may be considered with little ...
