Establishing Methods to Monitor Swine Fecal Contamination of Surface Water, Drinking Water, and Settled Dust in Communities Neighboring Swine Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations, Yucatán, Mexico, 2…
Background: Yucatán, Mexico, has experienced an expansion of swine concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs). These operations produce large quantities of concentrated waste that may contaminate surrounding areas and infiltrate surface and groundwater. This pilot study explored the viability of swine fecal contamination testing across several impacted communities and was conducted to build local technical capacity and to address community co…
High Sars-CoV-2 secondary infection rates in households with children in Georgia, United States, Fall 2020—Winter 2021
Background A wide range of household secondary infection rates has been reported, and the role of children in population transmission dynamics for SARS-CoV-2 remains ill-defined. We sought to better understand household infection early in the pandemic. Methodology A cross-sectional study of 17 households in the Atlanta metropolitan area with at least one child and one case of COVID-19 in the prior 1–4 months were recruited between December 2020 a…
Assessing Residential Exposure to Microbes from Industrial Hog Operations in Rural North Carolina: Methods and Lessons Learned
Using community-appropriate sampling protocols, a pilot study of residential exposure to bacteria from IHOs was completed. While high-quality data was collected from those eligible, we learned the necessity of early and continual data review
Application of Sars-CoV-2 Serology to Address Public Health Priorities
Background: Antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 can be detected by various testing platforms, but a detailed understanding of assay performance is critical. Methods: We developed and validated a simple enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect IgG binding to the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2, which was then applied for surveillance. ELISA results were compared to a set of complimentary serologic assays using a large panel of cli…
