Impact of emerging disease
• Loss of human life
• Costs of control
• Adverse effects on agriculture & food security
• Reduces biodiversity

• Frozen tissues – heart, lung, liver, kidney, brain, spleen
• Fixed tissues for histopathology
• PCR – Lyssaviruses (Rabies)
– Filoviruses (Ebola/Marburg)

Conclusions
• New pathogens of bats
• Relate to human and animal data
• Not causal but hypothesis generating

Malignant catarrhal fever
http://na.unep.net/geas/getUNEPPageWithArticleIDScript.php?article_id=107
• Alcelaphine herpesvirus -1
• Carriers – wildebeest
• 100% cattle mortality
• Risk period - wildebeest calving
• Traditionally pastoralists migrate

Control
• Fencing
• Removal wildebeest
• Exclusion
• Vaccine trial
– attenuated live virus (AlHV C500) + Emulsigen® 1,2
– Randomised placebo blind trial (100)

Conclusion
• Drivers are anthropogenic
• Increased contact with animals
• How do we quantify/qualify that contact
• How do we determine which behaviours
• Are the pathogens one step ahead?
