Investigation of an outbreak of acute algal-associated dermatoses among artisanal fishermen in Senegal
In November 2020, an alert for a “mysterious disease” among fishermen was issued. Fishermen are particularly subjected to dermatoses due to their constant contact with seawater, fish, crustaceans, and fishing equipment that may contain harmful agents. The study aimed to examine the alert, identify the causative agent and suggest preventive and control measures. This was a cross-sectional study of dermatoses in Dakar (Senegal) from October 11 to N…
Low prevalence of scabies and impetigo in Dakar/Senegal
Background Scabies, a parasitic infection caused by Sarcoptes scabiei var . hominis , is a public health problem with significant morbidity worldwide, particularly in low-resource countries. Impetigo, a complication of scabies infection, is a risk factor for sepsis, glomerulonephritis and possibly acute rheumatic fever. Currently, the majority of epidemiological data has been collected in rural populations in the Pacific with limited applicabilit…
