Silent St. Louis encephalitis virus circulation evidence by a haemovigilance survey in a centralized blood bank
Herein, we show the usefulness of haemovigilance in uncovering the silent circulation of arboviral infections. Implementing this systematic surveillance approach would allow for monitoring the distribution and incidence of vector-borne diseases, providing information that could prevent the spread of the virus and its introduction into novel biomes. Ultimately, leveraging haemovigilance enables timely identification of potential outbreaks and empowers policymakers to make well-informed decisions to safeguard public health.
