Molecular and seroepidemiology of Sars-CoV-2 among influenza-like illness and severe Acute respiratory illness cases in selected health facilities in Ethiopia
Background SARS-CoV-2 remains globally circulating, yet post-pandemic comprehensive molecular, serological, and population-level immunity data from low-resource settings such as Ethiopia are limited. This study employed genomic surveillance with seroepidemiological assessment to characterize the epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 among individuals presenting with influenza-like illness (ILI) and severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) between May 2023 …
Clinical and epidemiological characteristics of influenza and Sars-CoV-2 virus among patients with acute febrile illness in selected sites of Ethiopia 2021–2022
Background: Viral respiratory pathogens have become the leading cause of acute undifferentiated febrile illness (AFI). We determined the fraction of AFI attributable to influenza and SARS-CoV-2 in Ethiopia, along with an understanding of their epidemiological characteristics. Methods: From February 2021 to June 2022, we enrolled patients meeting an AFI case definition (age >5 years with fever ≥38°C) who presented at one of four selected sentinel …
Impacts of El Niño-Southern oscillation on rainfall amount and anticipated humanitarian impact
Epidemiology of Porcine Cysticercosis in Eastern and Southern Africa
Taenia solium cysticercosis is the most common cause of acquired epilepsy in pig-raising and pork-consuming parts of Africa, Latin America, and Asia. This review aimed to systematically compile and synthesize data on the epidemiology of porcine cysticercosis in the Eastern and Southern Africa (ESA) region. Comprehensive searching strategies were employed to retrieve the studies published or reported between January 1,1997 and March 1, 2021, from …
Coronavirus and Paramyxovirus Shedding by Bats in a Cave and Buildings in Ethiopia
Bats are important hosts of zoonotic viruses with pandemic potential, including filoviruses, MERS-Coronavirus (CoV), SARS-CoV -1, and likely SARS-CoV-2. Viral infection and transmission among wildlife are dependent on a combination of factors that include host ecology and immunology, life history traits, roosting habitats, biogeography, and external stressors. Between 2016 and 2018, four species of insectivorous bats from a readily accessed roads…
