Description

VectorNet is a European network for sharing data on geographic distribution of arthropod vectors, transmitting human and animal disease agents. The network is a joint initiative of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), which started in May 2014. The project supports the collection of data on vectors and pathogens in vectors, related to both animal and human health. The online reporting tool allows registered users to submit information on the distribution of ticks, mosquitoes, sand flies and biting midges.
