We are working on quantifying #ecological drivers of #yellowfever in the South and Southeast of #Brazil. Curious to see what the hashtag gives, so using this as a test 🤔

Looking to work on eco-epi #modelling in #Brazil 🇧🇷 ? Lacking some critical #data? Have a look at this great dataset from Abdalla and colleagues "Statistically enriched #geospatial datasets of Brazilian municipalities for data-driven modeling".🔬

Over the last three decades, the global distribution of #dengue has rapidly expanded, causing detrimental health and economic problems in many areas of the world. We mapped the global climate-driven transmission potential of dengue virus transmitted by Aedes #aegypti mosquitoes from 1981 to 2019. This #database and an R package are offered to the public health community as resources towards the identification of past, current and future transmission hotspots.
