Addressing Climate Driven Vector‐Borne Disease in West Africa

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) pose a significant public health threat in West Africa, contributing to substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly among vulnerable populations. This region is highly susceptible to the effects of climate change due to its geographical location, dependence on rain‐fed agriculture, and fragile ...

Community Awareness, Knowledge, Attitudes, and Perceptions Toward Viral Disease Outbreaks in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
High awareness of viral outbreaks in Dar es Salaam coexists with critical knowledge gaps, stigma, and vaccine hesitancy driven by trust and safety concerns. Targeted myth correction, anti‐stigma initiatives, and strategic digital health communication are essential to strengthen community preparedness and outbreak response.

Shrubs and trees as natural insect protection for grazing animals in Switzerland and the alpine region: A systematic review of in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials Sträucher und Bäume als natürlicher Insektenschutz für Weidetiere in der Schweiz und im Alpenraum: Eine systematische Literaturübersicht über in vitro‐, in vivo‐ und klinische Studien

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 221-245, June 2026.
Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...

Spreading Speed for a Vector‐Borne Disease System on Non‐Coincident Straight Infinite Cylinders

Studies in Applied Mathematics, Volume 156, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Vector‐borne diseases remain an increasing global public health concern. In this work, we investigate the spreading speed of vector‐borne disease via a four‐component reaction–diffusion system posed on non‐coincident straight infinite cylinders, which stands for an unconventional spatial configuration.
