Male mosquitoes are harmless because they feed only on nectar; female mosquitoes need to feed on blood in order to produce eggs, and are solely
responsible for disease transmission.
Most importantly, the only way to get the cooling rate required is by having the cells in direct contact with liquid nitrogen and liquid nitrogen can be a
vehicle for disease transmission.
You are much more likely to catch an infectious disease from the person standing in line with you at the grocery store than from a cat.1 In fact, a 2002 review of cat - associated diseases published in the Archives of Internal Medicine concluded that, «cats should not be thought of as
vectors for disease transmission.»
The Risks to Children Contrary to the claims made in the Florida DOH Rabies Guide («Children are among the highest risk
for disease transmission from [free - roaming] cats.»)
Pinpointing the optimal
temperature for disease transmission is critical for predicting future disease rates and how diseases will spread with climate change, and more effectively implementing mosquito - control measures, said lead author Erin Mordecai of Stanford University.
A proposed strategy to aid in controlling the growing burden of vector - borne disease is population replacement, in which a natural vector population is replaced by a population with a reduced
capacity for disease transmission.
However, he said that was equally true for the heterosexual community, and in both, a large number of STIs were also being transmitted orally, which, many people regard as a low - risk
behaviour for disease transmission.
These doors allow your dog to not feel as confined, reducing stress while staying with us, in addition to reducing the potential
for disease transmission such as kennel cough.
FeLV - and FIV - positive cats were euthanized to prevent infected cats from suffering disease symptoms, to reduce
opportunities for disease transmission to other cats and wildlife, and to minimize the loss of experimentally sterilized cats.
They do this in an attempt to establish that outdoor feral cats are perfectly fine and not disease vectors, when they write, «a 2002 review of cat - associated diseases published in the Archives of Internal Medicine concluded that, «cats should not be thought of as
vectors for disease transmission.»
Buyers come into close contact with the birds they release, and the traders sell deceased birds to roadside diners at the end of the day, which introduces the
potential for disease transmission.
Additionally, culling may have unintended consequences: destabilizing host ecology can actually increase
risk for disease transmission, as seen in studies of Marburg and rabies viruses.
As a general rule of thumb, the more animals in a facility, the higher the potential
for disease transmission and epidemics.
Cats should not be thought of as vectors
for disease transmission, but as sources of joy and companionship for their owners.»
Farmers also face threats from viruses, including Cassava Brown Streak; Cucumber Mosaic Virus; African Cassava Mosaic Virus; and Cotton Leaf Curl, as well as major insect pests such as weevils and stem, fruit, and grain borers, and insects that serve as vectors
for disease transmission.
