Abstract

Multiple Zoonotic Subtypes Of Avian Influenza Viruses (AIV) Are Endemic In Poultry Populations In South And Southeast Asia. With Most Poultry Being Traded Alive, Live Bird Markets Play A Key Role In AIV Epidemiology In These Regions. I Will Present How Interdisciplinary Research Combining Epidemiological, Ethnographic And Virological Studies Can Help Assessing The Influence Of Poultry Trading Practices On AIV Transmission Dynamics, And Identifying Targets For Control Measures.
