Epidemiological Alert Oropouche in the Region of the Americas - 1 August 2024
Considering the increase in reported cases of Oropouche in 2024, including in areas in which no cases had been historically recorded, as well as the identification of fatal cases associated with Oropouche virus (OROV) infection and possible cases of vertical transmission of the virus and its consequences, the Pan American Health Organization / World Health Organization (PAHO / WHO) urges Member States to strengthen surveillance and implement laboratory diagnosis for the identification and characterization of cases, including fatal cases and vertical transmission p
The Coordinating Research on Emerging Arboviral Threats Encompassing the Neotropics (CREATE-NEO)
<p class="first" id="d2825654e200">Arthropod-borne viruses, such as dengue, Zika, and Mayaro, are emerging at an accelerating
rate in the neotropics. The

<b>Neo</b>tropics (CREATE-NEO) project, a part of the NIH-funded Centers for Research in Emerging
Infectious Diseases (CREID) network provides a nimble and flexible network of surveillance
sites in Central and South America coupled with cutting-edge modeling approaches to
anticipate and counter these threats to public health. Collected data and generated
models will be utilized to inform and alert local, regional, and global public health
agencies of enzootic arboviruses with a high risk of spillover, emergence, and transmission
among humans, and/or international spread. CREATE-NEO builds capacity
<i>in situ</i> to anticipate, detect, and respond to emerging arboviruses at the point of origin,
thereby maximizing the potential to avert full-blown emergence and widespread epidemics.

This is my second #introduction since I migrated my account from another server and my MastodonLine cleared.
I am an #InfectiousDiseases #Physician who practices in #Zaragoza, #Spain.
I have a broad interest in infectious diseases and more specifically in:
#AntimicrobialStewardship
#Healthcare associated infections
#HospitalEpidemiology
#EmergingInfections
#BehaviorChange
#MedEd
among others.
I have learnt a lot in the bird site and I do not want to lose the opportunity to do it so here too
Hi there!. I am just starting my Mastodon journey. I will use this first toot as an
#introduction. I am an infectious diseases physician practicing in Zaragoza, Spain. I have many interests but I would like to remark
#AntimicrobialResistance #AntimicrobialStewardship #BehaviorChange #EmergingInfections #Healthcare #MedEd and
#Learning. Indeed, I hoping to learn how to learn here.
