ATTENTION<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

New opportunity<\/p>\n

PARTICIPATE!<\/p>\n

The Organizing Committee of the 2nd International Course on Integrated Vector Control in the Context of Emergence and Re-emergence of Zoonotic Diseases offers a new opportunity, responding to professionals who, for various reasons, will not be able to attend the course in person. It has been decided to readjust the theoretical activities so that the course can be held virtually on August 18 and 19, 2025.<\/p>\n

Announcement<\/span><\/h1>\n

Climate change has led to shifts in the prevalence and emergence of new infectious diseases, many of which are transmitted by hematophagous insects. These changes can alter the spatial and temporal patterns of reservoir and disease transmission. In recent decades, several arboviruses have emerged and\/or re-emerged in the New World. Zika and chikungunya viruses, previously confined to Africa, spread to the Americas, coinciding with a surge in dengue cases across nearly all countries. West Nile virus also rapidly invaded North America, with cases reported in Central and South America. Other arboviruses, such as Mayaro, Eastern Equine Encephalitis virus, and Oropouche, have increased their activity and have been found in new areas. Furthermore, there have been documented changes in the pathogenicity of some viruses, leading to the emergence of unexpected diseases.<\/p>\n

In this regard, vector-borne diseases have a major impact on global public health and pose a significant economic burden in affected countries. According to the WHO, they account for approximately 17% of all infectious diseases and cause some 700,000 deaths each year.\u00a0 Integrated vector control is a decision-making process for managing vector populations with the aim of reducing or interrupting vector-borne transmission of diseases. This management involves a variety of interventions, often in combination and synergistically, collaboration within the health sector and with other public sectors that impact the reproduction of vectors and their breeding sites, active community participation, a legislative public health framework, and the rational use of insecticides and good practices in their application. To analyze this problem and investigate possible solutions that contribute to the improvement of this field in public health, the “Pedro Kouri” Institute of Tropical Medicine (IPK), the Ministry of Public Health of the Republic of Cuba, and the Cuban Society of Microbiology and Parasitology are pleased to announce that the II International Course on Integrated Vector Control in the context of the emergency and re-emergence of zoonotic diseases (CIV-2025) will be held from August 18 to 22, 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
