Control of Brucella melitensis in endemic settings: a simulation study in the Nile Delta, Egypt (2020)
Journal Article
Mohammed Hegazy, Y., Schley, D., Ridler, A., Beauvais, W., Musallam, I., & Guitian, J. (2020). Control of Brucella melitensis in endemic settings: a simulation study in the Nile Delta, Egypt. Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, https://doi.org/10.1111/tbed.13897

Small ruminant brucellosis remains endemic in many low and middle‐income countries (LMICs), where it poses a major economic and public health burden. Lack of resources to support long‐term vaccination, inherent characteristics of small ruminant produ...

Vaccination control programs for multiple livestock host species: an age-stratified, seasonal transmission model for brucellosis control in endemic settings (2016)
Journal Article
Beauvais, W., Musallam, I. I., & Guitian, J. (2016). Vaccination control programs for multiple livestock host species: an age-stratified, seasonal transmission model for brucellosis control in endemic settings. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-016-1327-6

Brucella melitensis causes production losses in ruminants and febrile disease in humans in Africa, Central Asia, the Middle East and elsewhere. Although traditionally understood to affect primarily sheep and goats, it is also the predominant Brucella...

Ten herd-level cross-sectional studies were conducted in peri-urban dairy production areas of seven West and Central African countries (Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Mali, Niger, Senegal and Togo). The objectives were to estimate herd level Brucel... Read More about Brucellosis in dairy herds: a public health concern in the milk supply chains of West and Central Africa.
