It is kept in nature in a cycle between birds and mosquitoes.<br>Numerous species of birds and mosquitoes support their replication. It can affect birds, humans, and horses causing an inapparent infection, febrile illness, meningitis, encephalitis, or even death. Horses and people are considered the \"sack ass\" of the disease because they can not transmit it via mosquito bites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The occurrence of West Nile fever has increased in recent years in Europe, increasing its distribution at higher latitudes and the number of cases in humans and equids by 2020 in the Iberian Peninsula. Effective surveillance is needed to prevent and control it. In this day we will know the epidemiological situation in which we find ourselves in order to prepare for the next season of transmission of the virus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/transferencia.irta.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/1-1-1024x714.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6218\" width=\"528\" height=\"368\" srcset=\"https:\/\/transferencia.irta.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/1-1-1024x714.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/transferencia.irta.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/1-1-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/transferencia.irta.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/1-1-768x536.jpg 768w, https:\/\/transferencia.irta.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/1-1.jpg 1170w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 528px) 100vw, 528px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":6366,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[],"objectius_estrategics":[],"ods":[1508,1496],"programa_irta":[1514],"trainings":[],"class_list":["post-6261","activitats","type-activitats","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","ods-15-life-on-land","ods-3-good-health-and-well-being","programa_irta-a4-animal-health"],"acf":{"codi":"210042","data":"30\/04\/2021","data_fi":"","horari":"10:00h - 12:30h","idioma":"Catalan","original_language":"ca","preu":"Free","places":"-1","ciutat":"Online","lloc_de_realitzacio":"<p>Online<\/p>\n","ubicacio":{"address":"irta cresa","lat":41.5048585,"lng":2.0966599,"zoom":14,"place_id":"ChIJrTAaiCiUpBIRX61z6XRDE7o","city":"Cerdanyola del Vall\u00e8s","state":"Catalunya","state_short":"CT","post_code":"08193","country":"Espanya","country_short":"ES"},"imatge_ubicacio":"https:\/\/transferencia.irta.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Blanco-Foto-Mar-Paisaje-Respira-Facebook-Portada.png","persona_contacte_nom":"Javier Tobal","persona_contacte_email":"javier.tobal@irta.cat","programa":{"ID":6363,"id":6363,"title":"En l\u00ednia_Virus Nil_300421_210042","filename":"En-l\u00ednia_Virus-Nil_300421_210042-1.pdf","filesize":245859,"url":"https:\/\/transferencia.irta.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/En-l\u00ednia_Virus-Nil_300421_210042-1.pdf","link":"https:\/\/transferencia.irta.cat\/en\/activitats\/the-west-nile-virus\/en-linia_virus-nil_300421_210042-2-2\/","alt":"","author":"2","description":"","caption":"","name":"en-linia_virus-nil_300421_210042-2-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":6261,"date":"2021-03-23 08:59:54","modified":"2021-03-23 08:59:54","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"application\/pdf","type":"application","subtype":"pdf","icon":"https:\/\/transferencia.irta.cat\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/document.png"},"programacio":"<p><strong>10.00 h Presentation of the day <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mrs. N\u00faria Busquets Mart\u00ed, IRTA-CReSA.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>10.10 am Introduction to the West Nile virus and current epidemiological situation in Europe <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sebasti\u00e1n Napp, IRTA-CReSA<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>10.30 am A \u201cOne Health\u201d view of the circulation of the West Nile virus in Andalusia.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sr. Jordi Figuerola, CSIC<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>11.00 am Epidemiological situation of the West Nile virus, surveillance and research in Extremadura. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Eva Frontera, University of Extremadura<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>11.30 am Pause<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>11.40 am Epidemiological situation of the West Nile virus, surveillance and research in Catalonia. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mrs. N\u00faria Busquets Mart\u00ed, IRTA-CReSA.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>12.00 Round Table (Question Time)<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>12.30 pm Closing of the day Mrs. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>N\u00faria Busquets Mart\u00ed, IRTA-CReSA.<\/p>\n","ponents":[{"ponent":{"ID":6259,"post_author":"2","post_date":"2021-03-11 11:49:33","post_date_gmt":"2021-03-11 10:49:33","post_content":"<!-- wp:paragraph {\"translatedWithWPMLTM\":\"1\"} -->\n<p>Dra.
