Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment of Human H5N1 Infection From Consumption of Fluid Cow's Milk. [PDF]
Risk AnalABSTRACT The spillover of H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b into dairy cattle has raised concerns over the safety of fluid milk. While no foodborne infection has been reported in humans, this strain has infected at least 70 people, and milk from infected cows is known to be infected by ingestion of multiple other species.

Quantitative microbial risk assessment with microbial source tracking for enteric pathogens in southwest Wisconsin private wells. [PDF]
J Environ QualAbstract Private wells supply drinking water for many households, and their contamination by fecal microbes presents a risk of acute gastrointestinal illness (AGI). Risk is thought to vary by contaminating fecal source, but specific associations with fecal source are unknown for most private wells in the United States. This study characterizes AGI risk

A Bayesian Model for Estimation of Virus Reduction in Potable Reuse Treatment Trains and Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment of Waterborne Viral Pathogens. [PDF]
Risk AnalABSTRACT Understanding virus occurrence and reduction at advanced treatment facilities for potable water reuse constitutes a high‐priority research need to protect human health and to enhance available water supply alternatives. The objectives were to (1) determine log reduction values (LRVs) of 15 viruses by advanced wastewater treatment; (2) evaluate

Quantifying Vibrio Infection Risks From Beach Recreation Along U.S. Eastern Seaboard in Year 2100. [PDF]
GeohealthAbstract Marine vibrios, a group of marine bacteria that are opportunist human pathogens, proliferates faster in coastal environments at warmer temperature. Recently, there have been significant concerns of human infection risks during marine beach recreations due to the elevation of seawater temperature in the United States Eastern Seaboard.
