Emerging Infections: Microbial Threats to Health in the United States. Joshua Lederberg, Robert E. Shope, and Stanley C.Oaks, Jr., Editors; Committee on Emerging Microbial Threats to Health, Institute of Medicine (1992)
• Defined the concept of EID
• Identified factors contributing to disease emergence
• Pointed to challenges posed by infectious diseases
Emerging Infections: Microbial Threats to Health in the United States. Joshua Lederberg, Robert E. Shope, and Stanley C.Oaks, Jr., Editors; Committee on Emerging Microbial Threats to Health, Institute of Medicine (1992)
“…the United States has no comprehensive national system for detecting outbreaks of infectious disease. Outbreaks of any disease that is not on CDC's current list of notifiable illnesses may go undetected or may be detected only after an outbreak is well under way.”
“Although many local and regional vector-control programs can effectively combat small and even medium-size outbreaks of vector-borne disease, they are not equipped to deal with outbreaks that are national in scope.”
“The significance of zoonoses in the emergence of human infections cannot be overstated.”
Outline
• Drivers of emerging / re-emerging diseases
• Re/emerging flavivirus – West Nile
• Re/emerging alphavirus – Chikungunya
Atlantic Monthly, 1997
Re/emerging infectious diseases
• Define the concept. EIDs are infections that have newly appeared in a population, or have existed but are rapidly increasing in incidence or geographic range (Morse 1995)
• Process
– Introduction of agent
– Establishment and dissemination
Introduction: The ‘Zoonotic Pool’
Assuming 50,000 vertebrates, each with 20 endemic viruses. There are likely 1,000,000 vertebrate viruses.
99.8% of vertebrate viruses remain to be discovered
Large potential for future zoonotic emergence!
S Morse 1993

What is an Arbovirus?
• Arthropod-borne• Group of viruses spread by arthropods• Many are zoonotic• Infection spread to incidental hosts that are not
essential to the life cycle.
Outline• Drivers in emerging diseases• Re/emerging flaviviruses
– West Nile – Dengue– Japanese encephalitis– Yellow fever– Kyassanur Forest
• Re/emerging alphavirus– Chikungunya

Risk factors for neuroinvasive disease
• Strong evidence– Age
Risk increases ~1.5 times per decade
– Organ transplant recipients ~40% develop neuroinvasive disease (>40 times the
risk as population-at-large)*
– Hematological malignancies Experimental infection and individual case reports
(risk remains undefined)
* Kumar et al. Am J Transplant 2004;4:1883-8
Risk factors for neuroinvasive disease
• Weaker evidence–Diabetes
–Hypertension
–Alcohol abuse
–Chronic renal disease
–Cardiovascular disease

Novel modes of virus transmission• Transfused blood
–Blood supply screening began in 2003–More than 1000 viremic blood donors identified 2003 - 2004
• Transplanted organs • Breast milk
–One case, infant asymptomatic• Transplacental transmission
–Single case 2002 with severe outcome to infant• Percutaneous, occupational exposure• Dialysis?
Greatest risk – exposure to mosquito bite !!
Conclusions 1 – North America• Rapid spread across USA (<4 years to Pacific Coast)
• Bird migration and random bird movements• Many possible important avian hosts and competent
mosquito vectors (unprecedented infection prevalence) • Significant impact on wildlife and domestic animals.• Persistent seasonal outbreaks. Incidence varies
regionally.• High infection incidence in humans has led to unusual
modes of transmission.• Age and immunosuppression highly significant risk
factors for neuroinvasive disease. Role of other risk factors unclear, but possibly important.
West Nile Virus in Latin America
2006
2002 –
2004
Little evidence of human and animal disease in Latin America
• Less virulent virus circulating?
• Poor surveillance?
• Serological cross reactivity with other flaviviruses?
• Previous exposure to other circulating flaviviruses modulating disease expression?
• Other causes?
West Nile Virus Puerto Rico, 2007
• Sentinel chicken surveillance: up to 50% chickens seroconverted per week for over two months
• 3 viremic human blood donors
• 7 sick horses; 1 death
• Active human surveillance: only one human with West Nile fever; no neuroinvasive disease
• WNV isolated from chickens and Culex mosquitoes
• Strain identical to that circulating in United States
Future issuesWest Nile virus is endemic in the western hemisphere
• Vaccines successful for equines but need to weigh cost effectiveness for humans
• Therapeutics / antivirals
• Long term sequelae
• Control and risk prediction

Factors involved in re-emergence of Chikungunya virus
• Biologic and genetic– Non-immune population
– Adaptation of virus to new mosquito: Ae. albopictus
• Ecologic conditions– Standing water due to droughts
– Warm European summer
– Mosquito abundance
• Social, economic, political– International travel
– Previous introduction of Ae. albopictus into Reunion Island & Italy
– Delayed identification and control of initial outbreaks
• Physical environment– Stored water/atificial breeding sites
