R to @ECDC_EU: In parallel, simple measures such as removing stagnant water in gardens or balconies where #mosquitos breed should be advertised to the population.

R to @ECDC_EU: The establishment of coordinated vector control measures is a key element for the fight against mosquito-borne diseases and further research will be needed to develop efficient but eco-friendly tools to manage mosquito populations.
[2024-06-13 08:32 UTC]
R to @ECDC_EU: It is widely anticipated that #ClimateChange will largely impact the spread of #MosquitoBorne diseases in Europe, for instance, through the creation of environmental conditions favourable for the establishment and growth of mosquito populations.

R to @ECDC_EU: Aedes aegypti, a vector of yellow fever, dengue, chikungunya, and Zika viruses recently established itself in Cyprus. Its potential for establishment in other parts of Europe is concerning due to its significant ability to transmit pathogens and its preference for biting humans.
[2024-06-13 08:32 UTC]
R to @ECDC_EU: Aedes albopictus, known for transmitting #dengue, #chikungunya, and #Zika viruses, is spreading further north, east, and west in Europe, and now has self-sustaining populations across 13 EU/EEA countries.
[2024-06-13 08:32 UTC]
R to @ECDC_EU: In 2023, there were 130 locally acquired cases of #dengue reported in the EU/EEA, and 71 cases were reported in 2022. This is a significant increase compared to the ten-year period 2010-2021, where the total number of locally acquired cases was 73 for the whole period.

R to @ECDC_EU: To address these concerns, we recommend:
-> enhanced surveillance
-> continued & expanded quality-assured antimicrobial susceptibility surveillance to detect & monitor resistance patterns promptly
-> regular review and updates of the treatment guidelines

R to @ECDC_EU: The resistance to:
➡️ #azithromycin 📈 to 25.6% from 14.2% in 2021.
➡️ #ciprofloxacin 📈 to 65.9% from 62.8% in 2021.
➡️ #cefixime remains low at 0.3%.
Continued monitoring is crucial, as #gonococcal strains resistant to cefixime & ceftriaxone spread internationally.
[2024-06-10 11:52 UTC]
R to @ECDC_EU: A total of 70 881 confirmed cases of #gonorrhoea were reported in 28 EU/EEA countries in 2022, representing a 48% increase over 2021.
The notification rate for the EU/EEA in 2022 is the highest recorded since European surveillance of #STIs began in 2009.
[2024-06-10 11:52 UTC]
R to @ECDC_EU: Data from our latest report shows isolates resistant to #ceftriaxone – the recommended antibiotic for treating #gonorrhoea. These strains also displayed extensive drug resistance (XDR) and multidrug resistance (MDR), further limiting treatment options.
