INTRODUCTION
▪ First reported in Rift Valley Kenya in early 20th Century
▪ Reemerging mosquito-borne zoonotic viral hemorrhagic fever in
Africa
▪ Outbreaks occur every 5-15 years in Kenya,
▪ Animals mostly affected: Transmission via mosquito vector
▪ Humans mainly infected through contact with infected animal tissues

Systems Organization
▪ Strengthen one health approach for effective coordination Task forces and committees of experts (RVF coordinating committee multi-disciplinary)
▪ Mapping of laboratory capacities (KEMRI, CVL, NPHL)
▪ Referral mechanisms (specimen sample) observing biosafety and biosecurity principles
▪ Development and standardization of training materials and guidelines

Prevention
▪ Identify gaps through regular simulations
▪ Invest in human and animal health workers
▪Continuous surveillance and research to map out hot spots including international borders
▪Community sensitization on the dangers of handling/consumption of sick/dead animal carcass

Resource mobilization and advocacyMulti-sectoral/multidisciplinary team
• Lack of resources delays response
• Creating awareness among non-health actors
• Policy makers /Ecomomists
• Trade and Finance institutions
• Politicians
