NCEZID STRATEGIC PLAN 2012-2017 The National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID) was established in 2010, with a mission and scientific activities that trace back to the earliest days of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This document is a strategic roadmap for the work necessary during the next 5 years to realize the Center’s vision—prevent infection, protect people, and save lives. NCEZID is responsible for the prevention and control of a wide range of infectious diseases, including rare but deadly diseases like anthrax and VISION: Prevent infections, protect people, save lives Ebola hemorrhagic fever, and more common illnesses like foodborne diseases and healthcare-associated infections. The Center’s expert staff MISSION: To reduce illness and manages a broad portfolio of science-based programs that also promote death associated with emerging and water safety, the health of migrating populations, and the identification zoonotic infectious diseases and to and control of diseases transmitted by animals and insects (e.g., rabies, protect against the unintentional Lyme disease). NCEZID works closely with the National Center for or intentional spread of infectious Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, the National Center for HIV/ diseases AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention, and other parts of CDC to fulfill the agency’s commitment to protect against the spread of all infectious diseases. NCEZID is one of the agency’s principal sources of epidemiologic and laboratory expertise about bacterial, viral, and fungal pathogens as well as infectious diseases of unknown origin. State and local health departments, other federal agencies, and foreign ministries of health look to NCEZID to assist with wide-ranging problems—from illness and death in 28 states caused by Listeria-contaminated cantaloupes, to an outbreak of anthrax in hippos and humans in Kenya, to rising rates of tuberculosis among people immigrating to the United States, to new outbreaks of dengue in south Florida. And, it is primarily because NCEZID’s diverse workforce includes a correspondingly broad spectrum of infectious disease expertise (see insert, pg. 2) that mysterious illnesses are identified, outbreaks are contained, and lives are saved. None of this work could happen without an ever-expanding extensive network of partnerships. NCEZID collaborates with many public and private partners, most notably federal, state, and local public health departments, public health organizations, academia, industry, and global multilateral organizations and ministries of health.

  • Arboviral Infection Surveillance Protocol
    April 2013 Arboviral Infection Surveillance Protocol Arboviruses endemic to the U.S. include Eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEE), La Crosse encephalitis virus (LAC), Saint Louis encephalitis virus (SLE), West Nile virus (WNV), Western equine encephalitis virus (WEE), and the tickborne Powassan encephalitis virus (POW). See other materials for information on non-endemic arboviruses (e.g., dengue fever and yellow fever) Provider Responsibilities 1. Report suspect and confirmed cases of arbovirus infection (including copies of lab results) to the local health department within one week of diagnosis. Supply requested clinical information to the local health department to assist with case ascertainment. 2. Assure appropriate testing is completed for patients with suspected arboviral infection. The preferred diagnostic test is testing of virus-specific IgM antibodies in serum or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). In West Virginia, appropriate arbovirus testing should include EEE, LAC, SLE, and WNV. Testing for a complete arboviral panel is available free of charge through the West Virginia Office of Laboratory Services (OLS). Laboratory Responsibilities 1. Report positive laboratory results for arbovirus infection to the local health department within 1 week. 2. Submit positive arboviral samples to the Office of Laboratory Services within 1 week. 3. Appropriate testing for patients with suspected arboviral infection includes testing of virus-specific IgM antibodies in serum or CSF. In West Virginia, testing should routinely be conducted for WNV, EEE, SLE, and LAC. A complete arboviral panel is available free of charge through OLS. For more information go to: http://www.wvdhhr.org/labservices/labs/virology/arbovirus.cfm Local Health Responsibilities 1. Conduct an appropriate case investigation.

  • ABSTRACT DRAKE, STEPHENIE LYNN. the Ecology Vibrio
    ABSTRACT DRAKE, STEPHENIE LYNN. The Ecology Vibrio vulnificus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus from Oyster Harvest Sites in the Gulf of Mexico. (Under the direction of Dr. Lee-Ann Jaykus). The Vibrionaceae are environmentally ubiquitous to estuarine waters. Two species in particular, V. vulnificus and V. parahaemolyticus, are important human pathogens that are transmitted by the consumption of contaminated molluscan shellfish. There is limited information available for the recent risk assessments; accordingly, the purpose of this study was to address some of these data gaps in the V. vulnificus and V. parahaemolyticus risk assessments. The objectives of this study were to (i) quantify the levels of total estuarine bacteria, total Vibrio spp., and specific levels of non-pathogenic and pathogenic V. vulnificus and V. parahaemolyticus over the harvest period; and (ii) determine if length of harvest time affects the levels of V. vulnificus. Oyster and water samples were harvested seasonally from 3 U.S. Gulf Coast sites over 2 years. Environmental parameters were monitored during harvesting. Both surface and bottom water samples (1 L) were taken at the beginning of harvesting and at the end of harvesting. Oyster samples (15 specimens for each time point) were taken at 0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, and 10 hrs intervals after being held at ambient temperature during harvesting. Samples were processed for many different bacteria. For enumeration of total V. parahaemolyticus, pathogenic V. parahaemolyticus, and V. vulnificus was done using colony lift hybridization (tlh, tdh+ and/or trh+, and vvhA gene targets, respectively). MPN methods were also used to obtain estimates of pathogenic V.

  • MDHHS BOL Mosquito-Borne and Tick-Borne Disease Testing
    MDHHS BUREAU OF LABORATORIES MOSQUITO-BORNE AND TICK-BORNE DISEASE TESTING MOSQUITO-BORNE DISEASES The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services Bureau of Laboratories (MDHHS BOL) offers comprehensive testing on clinical specimens for the following viral mosquito-borne diseases (also known as arboviruses) of concern in Michigan: California Group encephalitis viruses including La Crosse encephalitis virus (LAC) and Jamestown Canyon virus (JCV), Eastern Equine encephalitis virus (EEE), St. Louis encephalitis virus (SLE), and West Nile virus (WNV). Testing is available free of charge through Michigan healthcare providers for their patients. Testing for mosquito-borne viruses should be considered in patients presenting with meningitis, encephalitis, or other acute neurologic illness in which an infectious etiology is suspected during the summer months in Michigan. Methodologies include: • IgM detection for five arboviruses (LAC, JCV, EEE, SLE, WNV) • Molecular detection (PCR) for WNV only • Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT) is also available and may be performed on select samples when indicated The preferred sample for arbovirus serology at MDHHS BOL is cerebral spinal fluid (CSF), followed by paired serum samples (acute and convalescent). In cases where CSF volume may be small, it is recommended to also include an acute serum sample. Please see the following document for detailed instructions on specimen requirements, shipping and handling instructions: http://www.michigan.gov/documents/LSGArbovirus_IgM_Antibody_Panel_8347_7.doc Michigan residents may also be exposed to mosquito-borne viruses when traveling domestically or internationally. In recent years, the most common arboviruses impacting travelers include dengue, Zika and chikungunya virus. MDHHS has the capacity to perform PCR for dengue, chikungunya and Zika virus and IgM for dengue and Zika virus to confirm commercial laboratory arbovirus findings or for complicated medical investigations.

  • Marburg Hemorrhagic Fever Fact Sheet
    Marburg Hemorrhagic Fever Fact Sheet What is Marburg hemorrhagic fever? Marburg hemorrhagic fever is a rare, severe type of hemorrhagic fever which affects both humans and non-human primates. Caused by a genetically unique zoonotic (that is, animal-borne) RNA virus of the filovirus family, its recognition led to the creation of this virus family. The four species of Ebola virus are the only other known members of the filovirus family. Marburg virus was first recognized in 1967, when outbreaks of hemorrhagic fever occurred simultaneously in laboratories in Marburg and Frankfurt, Germany and in Belgrade, Yugoslavia (now Serbia). A total of 37 people became ill; they included laboratory workers as well as several medical personnel and Negative stain image of an isolate of Marburg virus, family members who had cared for them. The first people showing filamentous particles as well as the infected had been exposed to African green monkeys or characteristic "Shepherd's Crook." Magnification their tissues. In Marburg, the monkeys had been imported approximately 100,000 times. Image courtesy of for research and to prepare polio vaccine. Russell Regnery, Ph.D., DVRD, NCID, CDC. Where do cases of Marburg hemorrhagic fever occur? Recorded cases of the disease are rare, and have appeared in only a few locations. While the 1967 outbreak occurred in Europe, the disease agent had arrived with imported monkeys from Uganda. No other case was recorded until 1975, when a traveler most likely exposed in Zimbabwe became ill in Johannesburg, South Africa – and passed the virus to his traveling companion and a nurse. 1980 saw two other cases, one in Western Kenya not far from the Ugandan source of the monkeys implicated in the 1967 outbreak.
