📢Unless you reduce transmission through the 🐤food system, you cannot appreciably reduce infection of two critical pathogens, even if there are reductions via other pathways, like safe water, hand hygiene👇ehp.niehs.nih.gov/doi/10.1289/EH… Environmental Health Perspectives Emory Public Health Karen Levy Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH

Our new paper in Environmental Health Perspectives highlights the importance of foodborne transmission of enteric pathogens

Our new work in Environmental Health Perspectives shows high contamination rates, particularly in markets, of poultry products with Campylobacter and Salmonella. Great team effort with partners at Univ Eduardo Mondlane, Prof Eric Fevre at ILRI.org Matthew Freeman at Emory Public Health, funding Gates Foundation

NEW: From egg to market, contamination of poultry products with enteropathogens increases along the “value chain,” suggesting opportunities to reduce infections and complement WASH approaches to sanitation. Learn more ➡️ ow.ly/2lE750QmntQ Matthew Freeman Karen Levy

A new commentary by Environmental Health Perspectives highlights our two recent papers on the health risks associated with foodborne diarrheal pathogens in LMICs and the challenges (and the urgent need) to address those risks. doi.org/10.1289/EHP141….

Thanks Environmental Health Perspectives for the excellent piece summarizing our recent work on contamination of poultry products in Mozambique. Highlights the importance of paying attention to foodborne transmission of enteropathogen infection. And to markets as a source of those infections.

A recent study coauthored by CEID faculty Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH & Boston University School of Public Health student researcher Toshiaki Komura compares how effectiveness of bivalent mRNA COVID-19 vaccines vary based on timing of second dose. doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

This was so cool to be a part of, from a letter to the editor with Liz Rogawski McQuade to a full study led by our mutual connection Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH, it was research collaboration the way it’s supposed to happen.
