Reportable animal disease •Awareness •Educate

factors driving pathogen emergence

1. Ecological Changes 2. Human Demographic Changes and Behavior 3. Travel and Commerce 4. Technology and Industry 5. Microbial Adaptation and Change 6. Breakdown of Public Health Measures

lyme vaccine

1. Killed Bacterin Vaccine 2. OspA Recombinant Vaccine 3. Bivalent Vaccine (OspA and OspC) *none for humans

leishmania in humans

1.Cutaneous Leishmaniosis •0.7 to 1.2 million cases per year (incidence) 2.Visceral Leishmaniosis •0.2 million to 0.4 million cases per year (incidence) •Most of the ~70,000 deaths per year •Considered a neglected tropical disease •12 million infected (prevalence)

where emerging human pathogens come from

1.Pathogens that are already present (most) •21/25 (84%) 'historically and evolutionarily' significant human diseases had a high likelihood of coming from animals •73% of emerging/re emerging pathogens are zoonotic 2.Agents that have evolved to become new pathogens *risk elevated in tropics due to high biodiversity

coccidiodomycosis valley fever

Agent: Coccidioides immitis/posadasii Maintenance Cycle: Soil saprophyte -Environment Hosts: Multiple, including mammals and reptiles Transmission: Inhalation of arthroconidia, Spherule found in the host (Not infectious to other animals)

lyme disease

An emerging disease •Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis (JRA) cluster near Old Lyme, Connecticut -1972 •Many cases had history of erythema migrans •Distribution overlapped with Ixodesscapularis •Suspected a rickettsial organism. Why? tick transmitted and rash •B. burgdorferi identified as the causative agent of Lyme Disease in 1982 *agent = spirochete

Lyme Dx

CBC/Chem/UA •For 'typical' cases: •Nonspecific or unremarkable For Lyme Nephropathy: •Proteinuria •Glomerular disease: Hypoalbuminemia, azotemia, hyperphosphatemia, hyperkalemia •Seropositive for Bb •No other cause for nephropathy identified Serology: •(+) = Exposure •Disease typically occurs after seroconversion-rising titer unhelpful •Cross-reactivity with other spirochetes/vaccine may be problematic. •SNAP-3Dx and 4Dx point-of-care tests use C6 peptide antigen. •C6 test sensitive and specific •Caution* -Subject to over interpretation

leishmania infantum control

Control/Prevention •Euthanasia of sick or seropositive dogs •Vector control •Topical insecticides/repellants •Vaccine licensed for use in Brazil

risks working with valley fever

Culture *Danger* •Coccidioides will grow on all common media •Arthroconidia highly infectious in culture •90% of lab-associated infections result in disease •With other diagnostics, you do not need culture to confirm! Direct Transmission: •Extremely Rare Environmental: •Endemic Areas •Risk may be elevated in dry, dusty areas

emerging pathogen

Definitions: -Incidence is increasing following its appearance in a new host population -Incidence is increasing in an existing host population as a result of long term changes in the pathogen's underlying epidemiology OR: •A newly evolved strain of pathogen •Pathogens that have recently entered the human population for the first time • Pathogens that have probably been present in humans historically, but which have recently increased in incidence

leishmania Dx

Diagnosis •Antibody testing •Microscopy/Culture •Impression smear •Aspirate •Biopsy (IHC) •PCR *located in macros

basic reproductive number

The expected number of secondary cases produced by a single (typical) infection in a completely susceptible population R0<1 = the disease will die out as low transmissability Ro = 1 = stays at the same level --> called endemic disease Ro >1 = epidemic R0 = the number of individuals one infected host will pass the disease to

RMSF lifeclycle

Transmission/Entry: Tick Bite Rarely: Direct

leishmania treatment

Treatment •Canine disease more resistant to therapy than human disease •Relapses/retreatment are common

lyme transmission cycles

Two independent transmission cycles in the United States •East: Ixodesscapularis, white footed mouse, white-tailed deer (1 tick 2 mammals) •West: I. neotomae/spinipalpis Ixodes pacificus (2 ticks 1 mammal)

gene transfer

major driver of antibiotic resistance through plasmid transfer

east life cycle

no transovarial transmission Egg --> larvae --> blood meal of mouse --> infected nymph/larvae --> adult --> transmit disease to Dogs/humans/horses/deer* --> lay eggs
