The Transmission of Yellow Fever
1. Saimiri sciureus has been infected with yellow fever virus, both by the inoculation of infectious blood and by the bites of infective mosquitoes. Some of the monkeys have died, showing lesions, including hepatic necrosis, suggesting yellow fever as seen in human beings and in rhesus monkeys. Virus has been transferred back to M. rhesus from infected Saimiri both by blood inoculation and by m...
متن کاملThe yellow fever situation in Africa.
WHILE THE TWENTIETH CENTURY HAS PRODUCED GREAT DEVELOPMENTS IN THE EPIDEMIOLOGY OF YELLOW FEVER AND IN TECHNIQUES FOR ITS CONTROL IN URBAN AREAS, THE ESSENTIAL METHOD OF CONTROL HAS NOT CHANGED: it is still the elimination of the urban vector, Aëdes aegypti. The aim of those responsible for yellow fever control in Africa should be the eradication of this vector from all urban communities in the...
متن کاملQuantifying the routes of transmission for pandemic influenza.
Motivated by the desire to assess nonpharmaceutical interventions for pandemic influenza, we seek in this study to quantify the routes of transmission for this disease. We construct a mathematical model of aerosol (i.e., droplet-nuclei) and contact transmission of influenza within a household containing one infected. An analysis of this model in conjunction with influenza and rhinovirus data su...
متن کاملPerinatal Transmission of Yellow Fever, Brazil, 2009
with verocytotoxin-producing Escherich-ia coli O157—10 years of serodiagno-sis. toxin gene loss and transfer in vitro and in vivo during enterohemorrhagic Esche-richia coli O26 infection in humans. To the Editor: Although urban cases of yellow fever have not been reported in Brazil since 1942, sylvatic yellow fever is still endemic to the northern and middle-western states. In the past decade, ...
متن کاملEnzootic Transmission of Yellow Fever Virus, Venezuela
Phylogenetic analysis of yellow fever virus (YFV) strains isolated from Venezuela strongly supports YFV maintenance in situ in Venezuela, with evidence of regionally independent evolution within the country. However, there is considerable YFV movement from Brazil to Venezuela and between Trinidad and Venezuela.
