Animal viral diseases and global change: bluetongue and West Nile fever as paradigms.

Abstract: Environmental changes have an undoubted influence on the appearance, distribution, and evolution of infectious diseases, and notably on those transmitted by vectors. Global change refers to environmental changes arising from human activities affecting the fundamental mechanisms operating in the biosphere. This paper discusses the changes observed in recent times with regard to some important arboviral (arthropod-borne viral) diseases of animals, and the role global change could have played in these variations. Two of the most important arboviral diseases of animals, bluetongue (BT) and West Nile fever/encephalitis (WNF), have been selected as models. In both cases, in the last 15 years an important leap forward has been observed, which has lead to considering them emerging diseases in different parts of the world. BT, affecting domestic ruminants, has recently afflicted livestock in Europe in an unprecedented epizootic, causing enormous economic losses. WNF affects wildlife (birds), domestic animals (equines), and humans, thus, beyond the economic consequences of its occurrence, as a zoonotic disease, it poses an important public health threat. West Nile virus (WNV) has expanded in the last 12 years worldwide, and particularly in the Americas, where it first occurred in 1999, extending throughout the Americas relentlessly since then, causing a severe epidemic of disastrous consequences for public health, wildlife, and livestock. In Europe, WNV is known long time ago, but it is since the last years of the twentieth century that its incidence has risen substantially. Circumstances such as global warming, changes in land use and water management, increase in travel, trade of animals, and others, can have an important influence in the observed changes in both diseases. The following question is raised: What is the contribution of global changes to the current increase of these diseases in the world?

Summary

This research summary has been generated with artificial intelligence and may contain errors and omissions. Refer to the original study to confirm details provided. Submit correction.

The research article discusses how global environmental changes, largely influenced by human activities, affect the emergence, distribution, and evolution of infectious diseases, particularly those transferred by vectors (organisms that carry disease). Specifically, the researchers focused on the effects of global change on two prominent arboviral (transmitted by arthropods) diseases – bluetongue and West Nile fever – both of which have experienced significant increases in recent years.

Bluetongue and West Nile Fever’s Recent Developments

  • The research article points out that both bluetongue, an illness that primarily affects domestic ruminants like cattle, sheep, and goats, and West Nile fever, a virus infecting wildlife, livestock, and humans, have seen considerable growth in the last 15 years. As a result, these diseases are now considered emerging in various parts of the world.
  • In Europe, bluetongue has recently caused an unforeseen epizootic or animal epidemic among livestock, resulting in significant economic losses. On the other hand, West Nile fever doesn’t only have economic repercussions through its effect on livestock but also has serious implications for public health and wildlife.
  • West Nile virus has expanded globally over the last decade, particularly in the Americas where it first appeared in 1999. Its relentless spread resulted in a severe, widespread epidemic with harmful consequences for public health, livestock, and native wildlife species. The research notes that although West Nile Virus was already known in Europe, it only significantly increased in incidence towards the end of the 20th century.

Global Change’s Possible Influence

  • The research investigates how potential factors brought about by global change, such as global warming, variations in land use and water management, and increase in travel and animal trade, might have contributed to the observed recent developments in these diseases.
  • The paper raises an essential question in the face of these growing epidemics: What role does global change play in the current increase of bluetongue and West Nile fever across the globe?
