Effect of Socio-environmental Factors on Rat Proliferation and <i>Leptospira</i> Transmission in Suburban Areas of Dungun, Terengganu, Malaysia

2023-07-14

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Rats play a significant role as important reservoirs in the transmission of neglected zoonotic diseases, such as leptospirosis, particularly in poor urban and suburban communities of Low and Middle-Income Countries. Their proliferation is influenced by poor socio-environmental conditions like poor housing conditions, improper refuse disposal, and open sewer which generally furnish rats with fo...
