Emerging Vector-Borne Infections
Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1991The principles that regulate the transmission of vector-borne infectious agents are briefly described. In particular, the circumstances that may lead to human exposure to various North American zoonoses are analyzed.

Zoonotic aspects of vector-borne infections.
Revue scientifique et technique (International Office of Epizootics), 2015Vector-borne diseases are principally zoonotic diseases transmitted to humans by animals. Pathogens such as bacteria, parasites and viruses are primarily maintained within an enzootic cycle between populations of non-human primates or other mammals and largely non-anthropophilic vectors. This 'wild' cycle sometimes spills over in the form of occasional

Transmission parameters of vector-borne infections
Médecine et Maladies Infectieuses, 2011Vector-borne infections are those for which the agent (virus, bacteria, or parasite) is transmitted from an infected host (animal or human) to another by a hematophagous arthropod (mosquito, tick, lice, and flea). Two parameters quantify the dynamics of a vector-borne infection: (1) the basic reproductive number (R(0)) that is the mean number of ...

Travel-related vector-borne virus infections in Germany
1996Laboratory diagnosis of imported, vector-borne virus diseases during a 22-month-period in Munich, Germany, is summarized. IN 13/317 Germans returning from the Mediterranean with suspected sandfly fever, acute sandfly fever, serotype Toscana, was confirmed serologically: 84.6% of the infections were acquired in Italy. Of 249 German tourists with febrile

Modeling the impact of global warming on vector-borne infections
Physics of Life Reviews, 2011Global warming will certainly affect the abundance and distribution of disease vectors. The effect of global warming, however, depends on the complex interaction between the human host population and the causative infectious agent. In this work we review some mathematical models that were proposed to study the impact of the increase in ambient ...

Host Spatial Heterogeneity and the Spread of Vector-Borne Infection
Theoretical Population Biology, 2001We analyze how spatial heterogeneity in host density affects the advance of vector-borne disease. Infection requires vector infestation. The vector spreads only between hosts occupying the same neighborhood, and the number of hosts varies randomly among neighborhoods.
