1/5 #RiftValleyFever (RVF) is a neglected zoonotic disease significantly impacting communities in endemic regions 🦟🦠. Our new review by @CHIR_City & @Pibright_Inst explores the socioeconomic impacts of RVF, highlighting the urgent need for prevention. https://t.co/xYhaksZ6mM
Last week we presented, discussed and validate the results from our recent livestock markets field study with various stakeholders, including sellers, buyers, middlemen, transporters, field veterinarians and government officials 🧵

The insights gathered from these rich discussions, building upon results from a series of field studies conducted in the last 5 years, will be the bases for an upcoming pilot intervention study. Watch this space 🐄🐏🐐👀
If the opposition legislators in the National Assembly allowed the G5 to impose stooges as their minority leaders in the Senate and the House of Reps,you will have a docile,pliant,robotic and subservient opposition,always at the beck and call of the Governing party.

A very productive week in Jos #Nigeria visiting livestock markets, discussing results from ongoing projects & planning follow up stages and introducing the young generation of @nvrivom researchers to animal health economics #AHE@Pirbright_Inst
And as a bonus for this trip I happened to be in the (delayed) women day celebration at @nvrivom listening to some of the most inspiring talks I’ve heard about creating awareness on #genderbias and to starting change.
The 8th call for proposals of the #EuFMD Fund for Applied Research #FAR has closed. Three proposals will receive financial and technical support, for applied research activities in West and Central #Africa, and the #MiddleEast. Well done to all those who applied!
