Local community awareness and practices on Yersinia pestis plague disease management in Nkayi and Umzingwane districts, south-western Zimbabwe

Annabel Banda et al.

Summary: This study explored the level of awareness and practices regarding Yersinia pestis plague disease in local communities in Nkayi and Umzingwane districts, southwest Zimbabwe. The findings suggest that respondents had some awareness of zoonotic diseases but limited knowledge of specific rodent-borne diseases. Individuals from areas with past plague outbreaks showed greater knowledge of the disease compared to those from non-outbreak areas. The study highlights the influence of local context and previous experiences on the awareness and practices of the local population in managing plague disease.

Molecular detection and genomic characterization of diverse hepaciviruses in African rodents

Magda Bletsa et al.

Summary: The study screened small mammal samples from sub-Saharan Africa and confirmed the presence of hepaciviruses in rodents. Eighty samples were found positive for hepaciviruses, increasing the diversity of three different rodent hepacivirus lineages, and evidence of recombination within specific host lineages was also detected.

Summary: This study screened small mammal samples from sub-Saharan Africa, uncovering novel hepacivirus lineages and providing insights into co-infections and recombination in rodent hosts. The findings underscore the importance of rodents as a potential reservoir for hepaciviruses and as models for studying HCV infection dynamics.
