The fact that an additional family member had serologic evidence of an epidemiologically unrelated EBOV infection further supports the notion that zoonotic exposures have occurred in the vicinity of the case-patient's village.
Because the cattle grazed over a relatively wide area along the river FP, averaging of soil and vegetation measurements obtained from properties in the vicinity of the index case (including the index case) would likely provide a better index of exposure of cattle to FP contamination.
I couldn't help but notice Roger Kay's article about Korea and the scandals surrounding individuals in the vicinity of the KFTC Qualcomm case.
The investigation of a cluster of cases in a summer camp showed the rapid spread of the virus in individuals living in the immediate vicinity of the index case.
One additional electrode was used to record the stimulus artefact and was located either along the wire ipsilateral to the stimulated STN (close to the burr-hole or to the mastoid) or in the vicinity of the stimulator case, whichever produced the highest amplitude artefact.
Mean 2,3,4,7,8-pentaCDF concentrations in soil and vegetation based on six near-river samples obtained from the vicinity of the index case's property were 1,250 pg/g dry weight for soil (range, 14.4 3,790 pg/g dry weight) and 122 pg/g dry weight for vegetation (range, 4.66 315 pg/g dry weight).
This generally involves trapping, seroprevalence, and necropsy of wildlife in the vicinity of the human cases.
I like to be in the vicinity of the desk in case anything happens.
A potential cause of this inconsistency is the horizontal heterogeneity of the water distribution in the vicinity of the gravimeter; for the case of Mizusawa, the gravity observation building itself could affect the horizontal water heterogeneity, and the subsequent gravity disturbance (e.g., Creutzfeldt et al., 2010a).
