2 CDC Responds to ZIKA Zika and Mosquito 101 Updated June 6, 2016

3 How is Zika transmitted? Zika can be transmitted through: Mosquito bites From a pregnant woman to her fetus Sexual contact Blood transfusion

4 Zika Virus Transmission Cycles Ae. (Stegomyia) Ae. (Diceromyia) Ae. aegypti Ae. albopictus Sylvatic cycle Epidemic (urban) cycle

5 Estimated Range of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus Mosquitoes in the United States Aedes aegypti Aedes albopictus *Maps have been updated from a variety of sources. These maps represent CDC s best estimate of the potential range of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus in the United States. Map is not meant to represent risk for spread of disease.

6 KNOW Aedes aegypti/ae. YOUR MOSQUITO albopictus Mostly bite during the day, but can also bite at night Ae. aegypti prefers to feed on people Ae. albopictus will feed on people and animals Prefers to lay eggs in man made containers that may dry out completely BG Sentinel traps and ovicups for surveillance Culex pipiens/cx. quinquefasciatus Night biter Prefers birds Lays eggs in standing water with a lot of organic material (lakes, ditches, gutters, neglected pools) CDC gravid and light traps for surveillance

7 Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus

8 Container Aquatic Habitats for Zika Vectors Water-storage containers (barrels, jars, tanks, cisterns) Utensils (pails, tarps) Discarded containers (trash) Recreation objects (plastic pools, toys, boats) Ornamental (fountains, plant pots) Animal drinking pans Septic tanks Water meters Treeholes

9 AEDES AEGYPTI AND AEDES ALBOPICTUS CONTROL Focus at individual property level Targeted outdoor residual spraying Targeted indoor residual spraying when appropriate Larvicide in containers, tires, tree holes Sanitation Widespread space spraying when required

10 What You Can Do During Mosquito Season Implement all mosquito control strategies, including: Immature mosquito monitoring Adult mosquito monitoring Remove or dump water sources where larvae can grow Use larvicides in water sources that cannot be removed or dumped Conduct insecticide resistance testing Actively engage communities to perform source reduction

11 What You Can Do if Zika Cases Are Identified Mobilize comprehensive mosquito control strategies without delay to prevent local transmission Implement targeted vector control for adult and immature mosquitoes in and within 150 yards around an individual s location Intensify larval control and source-reduction efforts Consider adding community-based adult mosquito control Residual treatments Space treatments

12 What You Can Do To Prepare Identify mosquito control assets in your state Identify where these mosquitoes are found Do you know what chemicals will be effective if spraying is needed? Are contingency contracts and intergovernmental agreements in place if needed? Make sure lines of communication are established between Health Department Mosquito Control Emergency Preparedness Other Relevant Agencies both State and local Make sure you have a communications plan for mosquito control activities

13 Communications especially where no mosquito control is done Fact sheets, chemicals and processes Press releases Frequent questions Where will public be able to get answers Personal protection messaging Things the public can do themselves

15 Mosquito-borne disease: models of risk in urban landscapes Shannon L. LaDeau

16 How do we define risk?

17 R 0 the basic reproductive ratio How many infections arise from one infected person?

18 In mosquito-borne disease, risk is related to how likely a mosquito is to pick up a new infection and pass it on:

19 In mosquito-borne disease, risk is related to how likely a mosquito is to pick up a new infection and pass it on: This is a function of density, longevity,

20 In mosquito-borne disease, risk is related to how likely a mosquito is to pick up a new infection and pass it on: This is a function of density, longevity, and biting behavior

21 Changes in mosquito abundance and behavior influence RISK in predictable ways: LaDeau et al BUT these parameters vary widely in space (and time). Outbreaks result when a series of extreme (not mean) conditions align.

22 Investigate mechanisms that define and maintain mosquito infestations and associated health risks in an urban landscape. Coupled Natural Human Systems Program (DEB ), LTER Program (Baltimore Ecosystem Study)

23 Investigate mechanisms that define and maintain mosquito infestations and associated health risks in an urban landscape. Pathogen transmission Avoid outdoor activity

38 Human biting rate and longevity should be even more important indicators of risk.. LaDeau et al. 2015

39 Perceived biting is not always a reflection of actual mosquito density... L M L M Scaled by mosquito abundance (2012) LaDeau et al. 2013

40 Mosquitoes bite. 74% of respondents bothered every day. 60% reported changing behavior to avoid mosquitoes. (majority in higher income neighborhoods) Those who perceived high nuisance were most likely to notify city which is how control efforts are initiated.

41 Who is Ae. albopictus biting? Neighborhood Low Median High Blood meal (scaled by abundance)

42 Who is Ae. albopictus biting: Neighborhood Low Median High Blood meal (scaled by abundance) L M

43 More habitat for mosquitoes but fewer people. More people, more complaints, but fewer mosquitoes.

44 HIGHEST RISK in neighborhoods where block-toblock variability includes BOTH mosquito habitat and people. These are often the same places where community greening/gardening is most active. MANY residents in U.S. cities do not have screens, AC. Many of these same people are less likely to report mosquito nuisance as a problem.

50 Declaration of a Public Health Emergency Under the Louisiana Health Emergency Powers Act (LHEPA), the Governor has the sole authority to declare a public health emergency. Operational activity of a public health emergency is directed by Governor s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (GOHSEP) City of New Orleans coordinates with GOHSEP and Division of Health and Hospitals (DHH) New Orleans Health Department is the lead agency for public health emergency preparedness and response in Orleans Parish

51 City of New Orleans Zika virus -roles New Orleans Health Department is the leas agency for public health emergency preparedness and response in Orleans Parish New Orleans Mosquito and Termite Control Board is the lead agency for mosquito surveillance and mosquito control in Orleans Parish. New Orleans Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness is the lead agency for coordinating all Orleans Parish agencies during all emergencies including disease outbreaks. Many other departments coordinate efforts Office of Communications Department of Sanitation Code Enforcement Safety and Permits NOFD, NOPD, S&WB.

52 City of New Orleans Zika virus -roles New Orleans Health Department is the leas agency for public health emergency preparedness and response in Orleans Parish New Orleans Mosquito and Termite Control Board is the lead agency for mosquito surveillance and mosquito control in Orleans Parish. New Orleans Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness is the lead agency for coordinating all Orleans Parish agencies during all emergencies including disease outbreaks. Many other departments coordinate efforts Office of Communications Department of Sanitation Code Enforcement Safety and Permits NOFD, NOPD, S&WB. A multi-agency approach is required

53 City of New Orleans Zika virus -roles Multiagency approach Each department has a role Address conducive conditions Maximize resources Working with several agencies allows for a quick ramp up of personnel to assist mosquito control Allows for effective communication to inform the public

54 Key Partners Division of Health and Hospitals Governmental and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) National, state, regional, and local professional associations American Mosquito Control Association (AMCA) Louisiana Mosquito Control Association (LMCA) National Pest Management Association (NPMA) Colleges and universities, including Cooperative Extension System offices (Tulane, LSU, Nicholls State) Private industry Media Pesticide/chemical manufacturers and distributors Pest control companies

55

56 Integrated Pest Management Surveillance Public Education Reduce conducive conditions Eliminate containers holding water Repellents Source Reduction Biological Control Agents Pesticides Larvicides Residual yard treatments Adulticides (ground, aerial)

57 Surveillance Traps for Adult Mosquitoes A variety of mosquito traps, multiple traps will be used to trap target mosquitoes Additional cost for traps and labor to run and process the mosquitoes

58 Assess the high risk areas of the district for additional deployment Determine additional cost (labor and equipment) Prepare before the season begins

59 Monitoring and Surveillance Monitor citizen complaints 311 system Addressing inquiries from partners and the public Good recordkeeping Evaluation and monitoring Mapped Mosquito Abundance

60 Education and Outreach Multiagency approach CDC, DHH Communications, Health Dept, Mosquito Control Unified, easy to understand message Prepare press releases Education on personal protection Repellant use Physical barriers, screen 5 Ds (Dusk & Dawn, DEET, Dress, and Drain) Refer medical questions to qualified agencies (DHH)

61 Education and Outreach Prepare fact sheets Risk communication regarding pesticides Prioritization explanation Demands for rapid response Notification of control activities Bee Keepers/Organic Farmers Chemical sensitive (LDAF) Write your districts SOP or plan and communicate it with supporting agencies. Everyone will know their role in the response.

62 Education and Outreach

63 Source Reduction Mosquitoes Breeding Sites

64 Source reduction Physical control (source reduction) Preventing mosquito breeding through habitat manipulation Ditching can be used to facilitate drainage and also movement of predators such as fish. Flood water mosquito breeding can be prevented by the use of dikes to keep tidal areas flooded so there is no soil available for egg laying. Removal of standing water

65 Property access to conduct inspections Permission granted by homeowner City Code New Ordinance giving property owners 24 hrs notice Tire storage and disposal LADEQ waste tire policy City Code storage and disposal of all tires Process and cost for city agencies to collect tires Enforcement numerous agencies involved

66

67 Biological Control Biological control Fish Copepods Cannibal mosquitoes Knowledge Resources Space Manpower Equipment

68 Control Measures Chemical control Ultra-low Volume Adulticiding (ULV) Ground Spraying Aerial Spraying Timing of Application Calibration Residual treatments Yard treatments Larviciding Different types and formulations Extensive use for arboviral prevention and during intervention

69 Control Measures Assessment of insecticides and equipment needed for application Budget needed to purchase Certified (LDAF) personnel Variety of products are kept in inventory Lab and field studies with resident populations of mosquitoes

70 Implement Control Measures Chemical control Pesticide stewardship State regulation compliance Certified personnel and continuing education Local requirements Personal protective measures Right-to-know, label and MSDS Recordkeeping and permits Contracts contingency or provide mosquito control

71 Resistance Management Resistance mechanisms Metabolic resistance Target-site resistance Resistance testing Implications for mosquito control Resistance management in operations

72 Evaluate Effectiveness Pre and post treatment inspection/surveillance Pest population density surveys Decrease in service requests Decrease the risk of illness and death rates Evaluation must be ongoing throughout response and recovery

73 Calculating the cost of activities related to Zika virus

74 Conclusion New information is constantly available. Start preparations early. Time is needed to inventory and determine district needs, network with other agencies Addition funding may be required for additional workload. Integrated mosquito management approach is required. Responding to Zika virus requires a multiagency approach Be transparent and keep the public informed (websites, media, etc.)
