Contagion, Spillover and Interdependence [PDF]

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2016
This paper reviews the empirical literature on international spillovers and contagion. Theoretical models of spillover and contagion imply that the reduced-form observable variables suffer from two possible sources of bias: endogeneity and omitted variables.

Investigations on the Potential Role of Free-Ranging Wildlife as a Reservoir of SARS-CoV-2 in Switzerland

Viruses
Amid the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, concerns surfaced regarding the spread of the virus to wildlife. Switzerland lacked data concerning the exposure of free-ranging animals to SARS-CoV-2 during this period.

The deadly drink: Nipah virus transmission through date palm sap, cultural practices and the evolution of behavioral interventions in Bangladesh over two decades

Journal of Infection and Public Health
Nipah virus (NiV) has emerged as a significant public health threat, with recurring outbreaks in Bangladesh often linked to the consumption of raw date palm sap contaminated by fruit bats (Pteropus species). Over the past two decades, substantial efforts

Theory of infectious disease spillover at an ecological boundary: impacts of seasonality and cross-boundary movement

Royal Society Open Science
Ecological boundaries are a key site for the spillover of wildlife pathogens into human and domestic livestock populations. Ebola virus is a zoonotic pathogen that is periodically introduced into humans causing outbreaks of a highly fatal haemorrhagic ...

Pathways to zoonotic spillover [PDF]

Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2017
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Zoonotic spillover, which is the transmission of a pathogen from a vertebrate animal to a human, presents a global public health burden but is a poorly understood phenomenon. Zoonotic spillover requires several factors to align, including the ecological, epidemiological and behavioural determinants of ...

Spillovers of PE investments

European Financial Management, 2022
AbstractWe investigate a potential primary effect of leveraged buyouts (LBOs) by private equity (PE) on peers in the same industry using data on US public‐to‐private LBO transactions between 1985 and 2016. We use a network‐based instrumental variable approach to account for potential endogeneity concerns.

Hepatitis E Virus in Wild Boars and Spillover Infection in Red and Roe Deer, Germany, 2013–2015

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
To determine animal hepatitis E virus (HEV) reservoirs, we analyzed serologic and molecular markers of HEV infection among wild animals in Germany. We detected HEV genotype 3 strains in inner organs and muscle tissues of a high percentage of wild boars ...
