Localized Rift Valley Fever Virus Persistence Depends on a High Transovarial Transmission Fraction

M. K. Rostal, J. Prentice, N. Ross, A. Kemp, P. Thompson, A. Anyamba, S. Cleaveland, C. Cordel, V. Msimang, P. Jansen van Vuren, D. Haydon, W. B. Karesh, J. Paweska, L. Matthews

This study models Rift Valley fever virus persistence via transovarial transmission and finds that a high TOT fraction enables localized persistence with realistic seroprevalence patterns.

Development, feasibility and potential effectiveness of community-based continuous mass dog vaccination delivery strategies: lessons for optimization and replication

C. T. Duamor, K. Hampson, F. Lankester, A. Lugelo, E. Mpolya, K. Kreppel, S. Cleaveland, S. Wyke

This paper describes the development and feasibility testing of a community-based continuous mass dog vaccination strategy in Tanzania, finding it achievable but requiring optimization for scale.

Identifying age cohorts responsible for Peste des petits ruminants virus transmission among sheep, goats, and cattle in northern Tanzania

C. M. Herzog, W. A. de Glanville, B. J. Willett, I. M. Cattadori, V. Kapur, P. J. Hudson, J. Buza, E. S. Swai, S. Cleaveland, O. N. Bjornstad

This study estimates age-specific force of infection for Peste des petits ruminants virus in Tanzanian livestock using seroprevalence data, finding weak age heterogeneity and suggesting management systems, not age, should guide control efforts.
