A recent study led by Michigan Public Health researchers offers new insights into why water, sanitation, and hygiene interventions sometimes fall short, and how to approach the developments of more effective public health strategies.
Curbing mosquito-borne disease transmission requires giving less weight to the perspectives of distant bureaucrats and center mosquitoes and the people exposed to them in public health response.
The University of Michigan School of Public Health is among 13 institutions that will receive funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as part of a network of centers focused on predicting and preparing for future disease outbreaks.
The transmission potential of Zika or dengue in Brazil may increase by 10% to 20% in the next 30 years due to warming temperatures linked to climate change, according to University of Michigan School of Public Health researchers.
Monkeypox, a virus that causes pus-filled blisters, has been detected in several countries, including the United States, Canada, Australia and some European nations.
Scientists have extensively studied water and sanitation interventions to decrease the transmission of pathogens and disease prevention. But a new University of Michigan study suggests a broader approach that includes looking at the environmental transmission of pathogens both in soil and water to help improve our understanding of the spread of these pathogens and better inform strategies to mitigate it.
