The virulent nature of many suddenly evolved highly contagious pathogens is controlled by surroundings' environment and also by the population density in a particular biogeographical region. Worldwide, the white spot disease (WSD) caused by the contagious white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) has devastated the aquaculture of penaeid shrimp species. WSSV is a highly infectious waterborne pathogen. The black tiger shrimp or Penaeus monodon had developed resistance potential against WSD with no antibody-mediated immunity. Many environmental factors including oceanic water current often play a major role in the nourishment as well as species richness of indigenous marine species. Here, we reported that oceanic water current might influence the disease-resistance prevalence in P. monodon.

This systematic review assessed the prevalence of transmitted and acquired HIV drug resistance (HIVDR) and the associated risk factors in Mozambique. A search of the PubMed, Cochrane, B-On, and Scopus databases up to December 2023 was conducted and included 11 studies with 1118 HIV-1 pol sequences. Drug resistance mutations (DRMs) to NNRTIs were found in 13% of the drug-naive individuals and 31% of those on ART, while NRTI resistance occurred in 5% and 10%, respectively.

The world has gone through the COVID-19 pandemic and has now returned to normalcy. We reviewed the strategies and public health actions conducted in Hong Kong during the COVID-19 pandemic, and reflected on the lessons learned, which are potentially useful in the fight against antimicrobial resistance (AMR). We recommended extending wastewater surveillance for AMR, apart from SARS-CoV2.

is a major threat to both human and animal health. However, the diversity and antibiotic resistance of animal-derived and their association with human infections remain largely unexplored. In this study, strains were isolated, identified, and sequenced from dead embryos and cloacal swab samples obtained from 278 large-scale duck farms in 11 cities in Shandong Province.

Multidrug-resistant is a significant healthcare challenge that particularly affects vulnerable patients through opportunistic nosocomial infections. Surveillance is crucial for monitoring the prevalence of these infections. Eighty-four KPC strains (2019-2022) were collected from patients admitted in Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Campus Bio-Medico.
