[The New Vision @newvisionwire]

The Ministry of Health is set to integrate new tools and findings from the Predict and Prepare for Emerging Vector-Borne Diseases (PREPARE4VBD) project into its national disease surveillance systems to strengthen the country’s ability to detect and respond to vector-borne diseases.

Dr Muruta finds @PREPARE4VBD policy briefs to be relevant, applicable,based on new data, and has promised to see most of them through his system.

What an incredible Panel discussion session featuring Brigitte, Tine, Stacey and Kolise! Well done panelists for sharing your experiences with VBDs

[PREPARE4VBD @PREPARE4VBD]

Lively discussion at Stakeholder Day on how to transfer knowledge into practice with the panel Tine Huyse (KU Leuven), Birgitte Vennervald (UCPH), Stacey Miller (representing farming community of South Africa) and Kolisa Nokoyo (Veterinary Services South).

Now 👉: panel discussion on how to implement findings from @PREPARE4VBD on #mosquito #snail and #tick vectors, Rift valley fever outbreak detection, field deployable diagnostic tools, incl. #eDNA, #research into action!🦟🐌🦠🪱🇺🇬

[AnnaSofie Stensgaard @ASStensgaard]

Kick-off for our final meeting in @PREPARE4VBD in lovely Entebbe, Uganda🇺🇬! Looking forward to a week full of fresh results on vectorborne diseases, tick, snail and mosquito research and stakeholder engagements!

I had the pleasure of writing a blog post for @bugbittentweets on our recent paper on how climate change affects the distribution of a schistosomiasis host snail.

Congrats to @PREPARE4VBD fellow @tiemvanderdeure for winning the prize for best Young Investigator talk @DParasitology Annual Spring Symposium for his presentation on modelling impacts of #climatechange on #vector #mosquitoes

[AnnaSofie Stensgaard @ASStensgaard]

@DParasitology annual Spring Symposium is on !🪱🐌🦟 Tiem @tiemvanderdeure @PREPARE4VBD @PARAENVI presenting his work on modelling current and future distributions of #Anopheles #mosquitoes

[HUGS @HUGS_LSTM]

We pose two questions in https://t.co/cZEii5aMGc - how common is Pseudosuccinea columella in #LakeMalawi and how might it matter for #fascioliasis - we hope this sparks the needed activities to develop answers #Onehealth

[Tine Huyse @HuyseTine]

📢In this new paper, we argue that community-based monitoring presents a valuable & sustainable complement to classical programs, especially in remote areas, BUT it also empowers communities & increases disease knowledge! 🙌

congrats @NoeliaVaBh & @jtumusiime90 !
