...some precisions on the Chick vectors

Snowy Owl

Retired in 2010, In Memoriam
In an article of the prestigious newspaper ''Le Monde'', they had a leak report that will be made public by the WHO.

http://www.lemonde.fr/web/article/0,1-0,36-759264,0.html

The report dated March 31st but not yet public, finger point few things.

It present ananalysis rather positive of the actions done by the authorities of La R?union island and make some critics on how the fight against the mosquitoes has been done. It recommend the implementation of a regional strategy of surveillance and response towards epidemics.

They make some critics towards the lack of key datas concerning the epidemic, this lack of accurate datas have contribute to confuse the medias and people.

The critics finger particularly the vectorial control, individual preparation andthe social mobilisation against the epidemic.

They critics the lack of coordination.

And here is what has trigger a debate at La r?union island;
alors m?me que le principal vecteur du chikungunya
since that the principal vector of chikungunya

MIR in Mausy forum on the Chikungunya say's rightly so, that in french when we use the denomination principal vector, it therefore implies secondary vectors.

And here we go, effectively there are other vectors,
Dogs?, rodents?, other animals ? sexually transmitted ??, h2h??

So for the people of La R?union the stress rise with this info, there will certainly be more information on other vectors.

The island is now recensing all the poultry on the island, in their preparedness plan against Avian Influenza.
 
Re: ...some precisions on the Chick vectors

So perhaps someone will have to actually consider the other (obvious) possibilities (i.e. transmission other than the traditional vector)?

Good.
