Anopheles sacharovi, a historical malaria vector in Italy, has reappeared in the country after 50 years, Raele et al. report. Some background: Anopheles sacharovi is a member of the Anopheles maculipennis complex. What does that mean, a complex? It is a set of mosquito species morphologically indistinguishable from each other (for an example, see here). Historically, Anopheles sacharovi served as an important (though not the only) vector for malaria in the region, up until its eradication in the 1960s

The broad impacts of climate change, including sea level rise, extreme weather events and biodiversity loss, also extend to human health, and may dramatically shift the landscape (distribution, prevalence and incidence) of zoonotic vector-borne diseases (ZVBDs) globally. This includes the potential emergence of new ZVBDs, as well as increased ‘s pillover’ of pathogens from animals to humans due to alterations in host and vector dynamics driven by environmental changes. It has been predicted, for example,

Mashup Score: 2BMC Series blog Introducing BMC Primary Care’s Collection: Trust and mistrust in primary care - 26 day(s) ago
BMC Primary Care is pleased to announce a new Collection to highlight the importance of trust in the primary care provider-patient relationship. We welcome research that explores communication dynamics, socioeconomic factors, cultural awareness, and new technologies that shape trust in primary care. Trust is essential for establishing an effective primary care professional (PCP)-patient relationship that influences the overall success of primary care. Attempts to improve primary care utilization, establish

Many of the most frightening human viruses have only recently made the jump from another species. These ‘zoonoses’ include the pandemic virus SARS-Cov-19 (which famously derived from a bat virus), and can be sourced from species both closely related to humanity (such as HIV originating from apes) and from species more distally related (such as avian flu from birds). By simmering in natural reservoirs and infecting Homo sapiens at unexpected times, zoonotic diseases present a formidable, shadowy foe for

Have you ever found yourself eyeing a mosquito as it buzzed around, seemingly fixated on making you its next meal? It’s an intricate dance of advances and retreats, with the female mosquito meticulously orchestrating its movements to achieve a precise landing. But mosquitoes aren’t the only ones performing: across the globe, communities are harnessing the power of dance to rally against malaria, engaging people in the collective effort to combat this deadly disease. The success disease prevention strategie
