Entomological survey of sand fly vectors and molecular screening for Leishmania parasite in refugee camps in Ethiopia

Puntos clave

• Leishmania parasites were identified in sand fly vectors, highlighting the disease's potential threat.
• Infection rates showed significant variance, with a notable presence of Leishmania among vectors.
• Observational analysis utilized molecular screening methods to assess sand fly populations for the parasite.
• Findings underscore the need for enhanced vector control measures in refugee settings to mitigate spread.
