Given the continued presence of poultry outbreaks and ongoing poultry-to-human transmission, additional efforts are needed to protect humans from infection.
Although this finding is comforting in terms of ensuring the implementation of measures aimed at limiting the risk for a local cycle transmission, additional efforts should be made to further increase completeness.
Although universal screening might be a cost-effective way to identify infections, prevent morbidity, and reduce transmission, few efforts have been made to determine patient opinions about new approaches to screening.
In order to improve the vector control and the survey of the risk of arbovirus transmission, many efforts are being devoted to develop new, simple, rapid, and highly sensitive complementary indicators to evaluate the level of human exposure to Aedes bites and the efficacy of control strategies.
In March 2009, two treatment centres were forced to close due to insecurity, disrupting patient treatment, follow-up, and transmission-control efforts.
With classical best effort transmission, unfair resource allocation can lead to starvation of some users in bad channel conditions.
