- The study analyzes the effectiveness of monitoring visceral leishmaniasis (VL) on a village level in Bihar, India, highlighting challenges with resource-intensive surveillance as cases decline.
- The researchers tested a statistical method to estimate VL incidence at the village level from block-level data, finding that this approach didn't provide more accurate estimates than assuming uniformity within blocks.
- The findings suggest that while reactive interventions may not be effective for neighboring villages, maintaining surveillance in areas at risk of population movement could help prevent the spread of VL into currently unaffected areas.
Background: Usutu virus (USUV) and West Nile virus (WNV) are zoonotic arthropod-borne orthoflaviviruses. The enzootic transmission cycles of both include mosquitoes as vectors and birds as amplifying hosts. For more than 10 years, these viruses have been monitored in birds in Germany by a multidisciplinary network.

The almost planar mol-ecules are organized N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a ladder-type network, which can be characterized by the graph sets (8) and (8). In addition, the mol-ecules are connected by C-H⋯O and C-H⋯Br contacts.
