In this issue of The Lancet Infectious Diseases, Kayvon Modjarrad and colleagues1 report on the safety and immunogenicity of a next-generation life-attenuated Vero cell line derived yellow fever vaccine, vYF-247. The prospect of a new yellow fever vacc...
Improving the cleaning and disinfection of shared medical equipment significantly reduced HAIs, underscoring the crucial role of cleaning in improving patient outcomes. Findings emphasise the need for dedicated approaches for cleaning shared equipment.

Antibiotic resistance is a persistent global health threat.1 Our ability to accurately assess changes in the overall burden of resistant pathogens, the effects of these changes on key clinical outcomes, and the effects of control interventions on antib...

In their editorial, The Lancet Infectious Diseases editors highlight regarding the uptake of H5N1 influenza A testing on farms that: “Testing is largely voluntary, and uptake has been low, so the true extent of spread is unclear”.1 Farm owners have bee...

Significant reductions in methicillin resistance in S aureus, vancomycin-resistant E faecium, and fluoroquinolone resistance across multiple pathogens suggest that control efforts have had an effect on resistance. The rise in extended-spectrum β-lactam...

Health-care-associated infections (HAIs) are the most frequently occurring adverse events in health care. These infections pose a major threat to patient safety and were regarded as an inevitable risk of health care for many years; however, contemporar...

After a single VLA1553 vaccination, chikungunya virus-neutralising antibodies above the threshold considered to be protective persisted up to 2 years and there were no long-term serious adverse events related to vaccination. VLA1553 is an efficient and...
Chikungunya virus disease is one of the most neglected arboviral diseases.1,2 Between December, 2013, and June, 2023, public health authorities reported 3·7 million suspected and laboratory-confirmed cases of chikungunya virus disease in the Americas,3...
Indoor residual spraying has substantially reduced sandfly abundance in India, which has contributed to reductions in visceral leishmaniasis and related deaths. To prevent the re-emergence of visceral leishmaniasis as a public health problem, surveilla...
