Programme
Aedes albopictus is a
paradigmatic example of how the
ongoing globalization makes possible the spread
and establishment of exotic species in new geographical
areas.
Like many other invasive insect species Aedes albopictus
features a very high adaptability to new habitats, being able
to colonize permanently new ecological niches by competing
with autochthones pre-existing species, to the extent that now,
in Italy it is well established with high population densities in
urbanized environments.
Its high anthropophily combined with its vectorial capacity as
regards to several arboviruses of sanitary concern, impose to
consider Aedes albopictus as a key vector, as demonstrated
by the epidemics of Chikungunya in Romagna in 2007 and
by the cases of Dengue in South France and Croatia in 2010.
These new and increasing health concerns require the development of efficient risk evaluation and control systems.
The Emilia-Romagna regional plan for the surveillance and
control of Aedes albopictus was started in 2006. After the
Chikungunya epidemic in 2007 it was implemented in the direction of the optimization of the costs/benefits rate and of
gathering all the necessary knowledge in order to involve all
the public subjects, private citizens and the private sectors to
share views and opportunities for more positive synergies in
the actions for the suppression of the mosquito populations.
The aim of this meeting is to share experiences and knowledge on thematic issues among national and international
scientists in order to unravel the critical points of the monitoring and control programs and to improve them.
The meeting attendants will also be presented the results of
the research project on the Chikungunya virus infection developed in the framework of the Strategic Research Program
“Zoonoses and exotic viral infections”, coordinated by “Istituto
Superiore di Sanità”.
