What Are the Barriers and Supports to a Return to Health From Long Covid? A Qualitative Study Designed, Developed, and Conducted by Individuals With Lived Experience of Long Covid
Long COVID is a debilitating and persistent illness that affects individuals in multiple and dynamic ways. Because of the significant physical, emotional, and economic impacts long COVID holds on individuals, their families, and society more broadly, it is imperative that a multi-faceted approach is taken to the long COVID research that aims to improve outcomes for those affected. Expertise about the barriers and supports to accessing appropriate…
Ground zero for pandemic prevention
Small mammals at the edge of deforestation in Cambodia
Conversion of forest to agricultural land results in rapid and profound changes in ecosystems and biodiversity loss and increases the risk of pathogen emergence. However, insights into the underlying ecological processes linking deforestation and pathogen spillover are required to anticipate and mitigate new pathogen spillovers.Here, we studied small mammal communities and zoonotic pathogens in nine sites in Cambodia where the spatiotemporal defo…
Evidence of Sars-CoV-2 Related Coronaviruses Circulating in Sunda pangolins (Manis javanica) Confiscated From the Illegal Wildlife Trade in Viet Nam
Despite the discovery of several closely related viruses in bats, the direct evolutionary progenitor of SARS-CoV-2 has not yet been identified. In this study, we investigated potential animal sources of SARS-related coronaviruses using archived specimens from Sunda pangolins ( Manis javanica ) and Chinese pangolins ( Manis pentadactyla ) confiscated from the illegal wildlife trade, and from common palm civets ( Paradoxurus hermaphroditus ) raised…
Orbivirus RNA in a Banana Serotine (Afronycteris nanus) Bat in the Republic of the Congo
Implications of Zoonoses From Hunting and Use of Wildlife in North American Arctic and Boreal Biomes
The COVID-19 pandemic has re-focused attention on mechanisms that lead to zoonotic disease spillover and spread. Commercial wildlife trade, and associated markets, are recognized mechanisms for zoonotic disease emergence, resulting in a growing global conversation around reducing human disease risks from spillover associated with hunting, trade, and consumption of wild animals. These discussions are especially relevant to people who rely on harve…
How to identify win–win interventions that benefit human health and conservation
The sampling scheme matters
Populations of an organism living in marked geographical or evolutionary isolation from other populations of the same species are often termed subspecies and expected to show some degree of genetic distinctiveness. The common chimpanzee ( Pan troglodytes ) is currently described as four geographically delimited subspecies: the western ( P. t. verus ), the nigerian‐cameroonian ( P. t. ellioti ), the central ( P. t. troglodytes ) and the eastern ( …
The genetic population structure of wild western lowland gorillas ( Gorilla gorilla gorilla ) living in continuous rain forest
To understand the evolutionary histories and conservation potential of wild animal species it is useful to assess whether taxa are genetically structured into different populations and identify the underlying factors responsible for any clustering. Landscape features such as rivers may influence genetic population structure, and analysis of structure by sex can further reveal effects of sex-specific dispersal. Using microsatellite genotypes obtai…
Amazonia revealed
The Amazon Basin is one of the world's most important bioregions, harboring a rich array of plant and animal species and offering a wealth of goods and services to society. For years, ecological science has shown how large-scale forest clearings cause declines in biodiversity and the availability of forest products. Yet some important changes in the rainforests, and in the ecosystem services they provide, have been underappreciated until recently…
