Map of rat fleas distribution, vectors of murine typhus, Reunion Island

Description

Theia Risks associated with infectious diseases SEC has mapped the infestation risk by rat fleas of the genus Xenopsylla, vectors of murine typhus, a neglected zoonotic disease that has recently emerged in Reunion Island (2018).

This mapping can be used to predict the incidence of these vectors by carrier mammal, taking into account a series of environmental and climatic factors (temperatures, relief, rainfall). This tool can thus contribute to establishing control strategies adapted to the different micro-regions of the island against these vectors.
