Pre-pandemic cross-reactive antibody and cellular responses against Sars-CoV-2 among female sex workers in Dakar, Senegal
Background The COVID-19 pandemic had a severe impact globally, yet African populations exhibited unexpectedly lower rates of severe disease and mortality. We investigated the potential role of pre-existing immunity in shaping the epidemiology of COVID-19 in Africa. Methods Plasma collected from Senegalese female sex workers prior to the COVID-19 pandemic was screened for SARS-CoV-2 and human coronavirus (hCoV) antibodies by virion immunoblots. Fo…
Multicenter cross-sectional study of HTLV-1 prevalence and associated risk factors in epidemiologically relevant groups across Brazil
Background: Human T cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is highly endemic in Brazil, necessitating surveillance studies to understand its epidemiology. While previous research has focused on either specific cities or populations, there is a need for multicenter studies encompassing epidemiologically relevant populations to ascertain more accurate prevalence rates and predictors of HTLV-1 infection in the country. Methods: We conducted a multi…
Geospatial clustering reveals dengue hotspots across Brazilian municipalities, 2024
Introduction: Dengue virus (DENV) remains a major and recurrent public health challenge in Brazil. In 2024, the country experienced its largest recorded epidemic, with more than six million probable cases and substantial pressure on hospital systems. The epidemic's highly heterogeneous burden highlights the need for municipal-scale geospatial analyses to identify actionable hotspots for targeted interventions. Methods: We conducted a nationwide c…
