A conference on «ARBOVIRUSES, A GLOBAL PUBLIC HEALTH THREAT» was organized on June 20-22, 2018 at the Merieux Foundation Conference Center in Veyrier du Lac, France, to review and raise awareness to the global public health threat of epidemic arboviruses, and to advance the discussion on the control and prevention of arboviral diseases. The presentations by scientists and public health officials from Asia, the Americas, Europe and Africa strengthened the notion that arboviral diseases of both humans and domestic animals are progressively becoming dominant public health problems in the world. The repeated occurrence of recent deadly epidemics strongly reinforces the call for action against these viral diseases, and the need for developing effective vaccines, drugs, vector control tools and strong prevention programs.
2018 年 6 月 20 日至 22 日,在法国维利尔杜拉克的梅里厄基金会会议中心举办了一场关于“虫媒病毒:全球公共卫生威胁”的会议,旨在审查和提高对虫媒病毒这一全球公共卫生威胁的认识,并推动关于虫媒病毒病的控制和预防的讨论。来自亚洲、美洲、欧洲和非洲的科学家和公共卫生官员的演讲强化了这样一种观点,即人类和家畜的虫媒病毒病正逐渐成为世界上主要的公共卫生问题。最近几次致命性传染病的反复发生强烈呼吁采取行动应对这些病毒性疾病,同时需要开发有效的疫苗、药物、病媒控制工具和强有力的预防方案。
