Tick and Tickborne Pathogen Surveillance as a Public Health Tool in the United States

Rebecca J. Eisen et al.

Summary: The United States has seen an increasing burden of tickborne diseases due to expanding cases and populations of medically important ticks, but there is often a lack of complete and up-to-date maps regarding their distributions and the prevalence of associated pathogens. The lack of systematic surveillance for medically important ticks and their pathogens hampers efforts to accurately assess acarological risks.

A Survey of Tick Surveillance and Control Practices in the United States

Emily M. Mader et al.

Summary: The survey found that less than half of respondents reported routine, active tick surveillance, but almost two-thirds reported passive surveillance. Detection of tick presence was the most common current surveillance objective. The majority of programs supporting tick pathogen testing were in the Northeast, Upper and Central Midwest, and the West regions.

The Impacts of Climate Change on Ticks and Tick-Borne Disease Risk

Lucy Gilbert

Summary: Ticks are widespread and carry pathogens, impacting by climate change; tick-borne disease systems are complex with diverse drivers, modeling can help understand changes; future research should focus on assessing the resilience of ticks and tick-borne pathogens to climate change.

Establishment of Aedes (Ochlerotatus) scapularis (Diptera: Culicidae) in Mainland Florida, With Notes on the Ochlerotatus Group in the United States

Lawrence E. Reeves et al.

Summary: This study reports numerous recent collections of immature and adult Ae. scapularis from multiple locations in two counties of southern Florida. These specimens represent the first records of Ae. scapularis from mainland Florida, indicating that the species is now established in Broward and Miami-Dade Counties.

Satellite Observations and Malaria: New Opportunities for Research and Applications

Michael C. Wimberly et al.

Summary: Satellite remote sensing provides abundant information on environmental factors influencing malaria transmission and populations at risk, facilitating analysis of climate-malaria relationships and assessment of human activities on malaria. New sources of high-resolution satellite imagery and synthetic aperture radar data will enhance observational precision and frequency, while cloud computing platforms have made satellite remote sensing more accessible to nonspecialists. Collaboration between malaria and remote sensing communities is essential to develop and implement geospatial data products supporting global efforts in malaria control and eradication.

Arboviral diseases and poverty in Alabama, 2007-2017

Donal Bisanzio et al.

Summary: This study analyzed 10 years of county-level human arboviral case data in Alabama, USA, and found a significant association between poverty rate and the incidence of West Nile virus, while other arboviruses like dengue, chikungunya, and Zika were more prevalent in areas of higher socioeconomic status. These results highlight the impact of socio-economic disparities on arboviral disease distribution and emphasize the importance of considering poverty when planning prevention and intervention strategies.

Malaria in the USA: How Vulnerable Are We to Future Outbreaks?

Kyndall C. Dye-Braumuller et al.

Summary: Despite the lack of recent autochthonous cases in the USA, multiple risk factors suggest that local malaria outbreaks in the USA will continue to pose a public health threat due to large numbers of international travelers from endemic areas, multiple Anopheles species capable of transmitting the parasite, and unsatisfactory vector-borne disease outbreak preparedness. Climate conditions and recent changes in travel patterns will influence malaria across the globe.
