Epidemiology of vector-borne diseases in cattle from SE Uganda. by McOdimba, F.A.

“…Institutions involved in vector-borne diseases research, epidemiological studies as well as vaccine development require reliable and sensitive assays to support the development of vaccine products and new drugs for treatment. These diagnostic assays also aid in identifying disease control target populations, and to monitor infection during trials for assessing the efficacy of preventive or curative drug. …”

Epidemiology and control of cattle trypanosomosis in villages under risk of trypanocide resistance in West Africa. by Grace, Delia

“…It is managed through vector control, keeping trypanotolerant cattle, but most importantly, by the use of trypanocidal drugs. Resistance to trypanocidal drugs is emerging and threatens the livelihoods of pastoralists and agro-pastoralists in sub-Saharan Africa who depend on cattle for traction, manure, milk, meat, savings, insurance, status and cultural obligations. …”
