“…To achieve these goals, firstly, virus surveillance should be strengthened in susceptible areas and regular testing in non-susceptible areas, and secondly, tick bites in outdoor areas such as jungle areas should be prevented by reducing skin exposure. Finally, given that human health relates to many aspects of the modern living environment, including the health of plants and animals, ecosystem stability, and natural climate change, future research should include modeling of infection and transmission and must adhere to a “one health” strategy ( Ostfeld and Brunner, 2015 ; Carlson and Phelan, 2022 ).…”

Ticks play a significant role in transmitting arboviruses, which pose a risk to human and animal health. The region of Liaoning Province, China, with abundant plant resources with multiple tick populations, has reported several tick-borne diseases. However, there remains a scarcity of research on the composition and evolution of the tick virome. In this study, we conducted the metagenomic analysis of 561 ticks in the border area of Liaoning Province in China and identified viruses related to known diseases in humans and animals, including severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) and nairobi sheep disease virus (NSDV). Moreover, the groups of tick viruses were also closely related to the families of Flaviviridae, Parvoviridae, Phenuiviridae, and Rhabdoviridae. Notably, the Dabieshan tick virus (DBTV) of the family Phenuiviridae was prevalent in these ticks, with the minimum infection rate (MIR) of 9.09%, higher than previously reported in numerous provinces in China. In addition, sequences of tick-borne viruses of the family Rhabdoviridae have first been reported from the border area of Liaoning Province, China, after being described from Hubei Province, China. This research furthered the insight into pathogens carried by ticks in the northeastern border areas of China, offering epidemiological information for possible forthcoming outbreaks of infectious diseases. Meanwhile, we provided an essential reference for assessing the risk of tick bite infection in humans and animals, as well as for exploring into the evolution of the virus and the mechanisms of species transmission.

“…With the development and implementation of many dedicated national action plans on antimicrobial resistance (Patel et al, 2023), this may disturb or duplicate objectives that member states have developed through separate processes. However, the ability for a One Health empowered treaty to aim for deep prevention and contribute to a global state shift (Carlson & Phelan, 2022; Vinuales et al, 2021), empowering the Quadripartite Collaboration for One Health – a consortium of the World Health Organisation, the World Organisation for Animal Health, the Food and Agriculture Organisation and the United Nations Environment Programme – was more widely acknowledged. Although the value of effective spillover prevention and monitoring were recognised for pandemic prevention, suggestions for international implementation mechanisms were lacking.…”

“…12 evidence‐based elements have been proposed for a successful and transformative treaty (Carlson & Phelan, 2022), spanning four domains: (i) spillover prevention; (ii) pandemic prevention; (iii) pandemic response and (iv) recovery and resilience (Table 1). To evaluate the themes of the negotiations at the second INB meeting, 21 indicators were developed corresponding with the objectives of the 12 elements (Table 1).…”

International negotiations for a pandemic treaty: A thematic evaluation of 43 member states

Negotiating a successful pandemic treaty should address a four‐fold purpose: to prevent, prepare for, respond to and recover from pandemics effectively (Phelan and Carlson, 2022, Science, 377, 475). Since the proposal for an international treaty on pandemic prevention and preparedness was endorsed by 26 heads of state and the WHO Director‐General in March 2021, WHO member states assigned an Intergovernmental Negotiating Body (INB) with the responsibility of coordinating negotiations in anticipation of adopting an agreement by May 2024. To date, four INB meetings have been held. In this analysis, the interventions of 43 member states at the INB sessions in July 2022 were evaluated against components considered integral to an effective pandemic treaty. These were mapped against elements previously identified for a transformative treaty (Phelan and Carlson, 2022). This analysis outlines gaps in the current pandemic treaty working draft and the INB negotiations, which may identify opportunities to enhance the value of the remaining negotiations and guide refinement in developing further iterations of the working draft.

“…28 The establishment of COVID-19 genomic sequencing platforms can also be leveraged against other infectious diseases such as HIV, malaria and an ever-increasing number of antimicrobial resistance pathogens which present a clear and present danger to those living in the Caribbean region. 29 Carlson and Phelan (2022) 30 discuss cases of other zoonotic coronaviruses in humans in the 2010s in Haiti that did not lead to a pandemic, and the need for international notification law reform to respond to One Health.…”
