TL;DR: Epidemiologic and phylogenetic analyses show repeated outbreaks derived from vaccine viruses are shown to be recurrent.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that wildlife disease is a social-ecological problem that must be approached from an interdisciplinary perspective, and has the potential to lead to changes in the identity of protected areas, possibly transforming them; and interacts with conservation both directly (via impacts on wild animals, livestock, and people) and indirectly (via the public, conservation management, and veterinary responses).

TL;DR: The branching order of outbreak strains indicated a lack of reassortment between outbreak strains that implied a single outbreak source and a wild duck origin for the progenitor outbreak strain, and the 2011 outbreak strains had no genetic relationships to the previous 2004 and 2006 HPAI H5N2 outbreak viruses.

TL;DR: A network analysis of nine years of ostrich movement data is used to explore the social–ecological resilience of the Western Cape ostrich industry, which nearly collapsed following an outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza in 2011 and has gradually rebuilt.

TL;DR: It is argued that landscape epidemiology must move beyond simply studying the influence of landscape configuration and composition on epidemiological processes and towards a more comparative, systems approach that better incorporates social–ecological complexity.
