@simonihay i-sense, London Centre for Nanotechnology University College London, London, U.K. 06 February 2015 Talk overview

• Infectious disease mapping opportunities • MBG and SEEG malaria activities • Niche mapping and dengue burden • Automating for scale up - ABRAID • Automating for emergencies - Infectious Diseases

• How many infectious diseases are there? – ~1400 (ever recorded) and 350 on • Pre-requisites for mapping – Spatial: geographically variable occurrence – Aetiology: understand pathogen life history – Measurement: information available to map – Utility: of public health interest • What ID can we map? • What ID have we mapped? – Systematic review of all IDs to score maps available vs. maps possible – Hay et al. (2013). Phil. Trans. Roy. Soc. B., 368(1614): 20120250 “Case law” for ID mapping

1000 cases/100 0/yr 0 ROAD MAP - 2014

• Repository for Open Access Data • Malaria Atlas Project = open-source cartographic information suite to inform malaria control and elimination globally • Aim – to maximise access and dissemination of MAP collated data and outputs • Themes – parasite, mosquito, host • Maps – national, regional, global • Data – explorer

B&MGF: OPP1106023 Niche mapping not better, but faster and cheaper Disease occurrence mapping

• “Borrows” directly from ecological theory – assume disease observations approximate the realized niche of a pathogen – correlate with covariates where known and predict extensively • It is clearly not perfect – i) sampling – do we capture enough of the realized distribution? – ii) biotic interactions, biogeography and human impact – especially important at the global scale – iii) environment – is our covariate suite representative? • Mitigated from the outset – i) comprehensive collection of occurrence data – ii) evidence-based consensus – iii) bespoke environmental covariates data Occurrence mapping

Bhatt et al. (2013). Nature, 496(7446): 504-507 (a) evidence-based consensus

• ITHG (WHO/CDC) disagree on endemic status of 34 territories • Systematic review and treatment of evidence of transmission (admin0 and admin1) • Brady et al. (2012). PLoS NTD, 6(8): e1760. (b) occurrence data • Huge effort – all freely available • Formal literature searches were conducted – PubMed, ISI WoS and PROMED • All papers identified and abstracts read • All occurrence data geo-positioned manually • This yielded 8309 points for mapping from 106 countries (1963-2012) • An additional 1622 points were provided by HealthMap (2007-2012) (b) occurrence data

• N = 8309 from literature searches and N = 1622 from HealthMap • Africa relatively data-poor and a future interest • Messina et al. (2014). A global compendium of human occurrence. Scientific Data, 1: 140004 (c) pseudo-absence data

• All niche modelling techniques • These data are generated in proportion to definitive extent certainty • We explore the full effect through ensemble approaches (d) environmental datasets

• Lots of useful raster information available from familiar climatologies to GDP • Synoptic precipitation http://www.worldclim.org • From 0 mm (yellow) to 800 mm (blue) per month (d) environmental datasets

• Synoptic mean monthly temperature http://www.worldclim.org • Covariate is annual number of days suitable for dengue transmission • Converted to daily dengue transmission suitability for Ae. aegypti using VC • Thus bespoke environmental covariates to formalize entomological knowledge (d) environmental datasets

• Lots of opportunity to use “epidemiological” covariates • Geographically-based economic data • Pixel-based equivalent of gross domestic product (GDP) (e) probability of occurrence

• BRT mapping with (i) evidence base; (ii) modern cartography and (iii) uncertainty • Statistically robust and geographically plausible (definitive extent; ++occurrence data) • Biologically plausible: covariates selected have epidemiological relevance: precip. (37%), temp. suitability (20%), G-econ (9%) Cohort studies

• N = 57 • Inclusion criteria = serological testing of paired blood samples taken at least one year apart • For some studies: active fever surveillance and questionnaires identify the proportion of symptomatic/apparent infections From dengue risk to burden

• Pair probability of occurrence with cohort studies to infer inapparent (n=54) and apparent (n=39) incidence per pixel • Then pair with population surfaces for 2010 to sum up global totals • Consistent global estimates for B&MGF, GAVI and for WHO Previous burden estimates

• In broad accordance with other metrics but – much finer spatial scale – full uncertainty estimates – to be endorsed by WHO for WHA 2015 Automating for scale-up and emergencies Atlas of Baseline Risk Assessment for Infectious Disease

B&MGF: OPP1093011 ABRAID concept

Hay, S.I. et al. (2013). PLoS Med., 10(4): e1001413. ABRAID details

• Automate data retrieval – Machine learning (provenance and geo-positioning) • Automate mapping – BRT and derivatives in a feed-back loop • Extensive validation – Crowd-source checking – Geo-wiki integrated with Global Health Network user groups – Additional expert panel of arbiters • Potential audiences – Standard map users: (i) atlas; (ii) spatial audit; (iii) advocacy; (iv) travel health – Biosurveillance: (i) geo-spatial triage of outbreak risk; (ii) abraid = to awaken – GBD: (i) supply infectious disease map covariates; (ii) help improve timeliness and spatial resolution ABRAID now live and working Social media inputs

• New low provenance data sources – Twitter as an example – There are and will be others i.e. Google, Wikipedia, Facebook etc. • High volume – >150 million tweets daily and increasing – Increasing, 5% are geopositioned – Tweetping movie – every minute for 7 hours • Assumption lots of occurrence data – future challenges change from obtaining data to extracting signal from noise The Ebolavirus family

• Four species known to infect humans – (1976) – Zaire ebolavirus (1976) – Tai Forest ebolavirus (1994)

(2007) National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Niche mapping - option 4 - EVD

• Not better, but faster and cheaper and thus useful for scaling and emergencies EVD niche mapping

Ebola index cases Background samples Environmental correlates

• Maps the zoonotic niche not secondary transmission • Marburg, Lassa fever and CCHF also a major concern Pigott et al. (2014). eLife, 3: e04395. Changing PAR in EVD niche A wider range of VHFs

• Methodology equally applicable to a range of IDs • Various VHFs including Marburg, Lassa fever and CCHF are our first priority • These conditions are VHFs of greatest concern due to the potential for secondary human-to-human transmission and thus outbreaks that precipitate PHEs • Do we know their geography? Thank you

We hope to encourage the use of maps to communicate that disease burden reductions are possible, ongoing and with the help of model inferences, cost-effective and sustainable.
