Chapter 1: Yellow fever -- Chapter 2: Chikungunya -- Chapter 3: Zika virosis: a known, but long time underestimated disease that got new and high attention before, during and after the Olympic Games in Brazil 2016 -- Chapter 4: Plague -- Chapter 5:Trypanosoma cruzi: an ancient and successful enzootic parasite -- Chapter 6: The social and environmental determinants of the leishmaniases in the Americas -- Chapter 7: Toxoplasmosis in South America -- Chapter 8: Tunga spp. and Tungiasis in Latin America -- Chapter 9: Human myiasis on the South American continent -- Chapter 10: Schistosomiasis control: present situation and perspectives -- Chapter 11: Hookworms in South America – a constant threat especially to children -- Chapter 12: One Health Approach to Control Human and Zoonotic Hookworm Infections.

This book covers current aspects of important infectious diseases affecting human and animal health in Latin American countries. Readers are equipped with details on arthropod vectors as well as on neglected health problems. Diseases covered include Neglected Tropical Diseases such as Chagas Disease, schistosomiasis, tungiasis, myiasis and leishmaniasis, but also Zika and Chikungunya viral infections, plague and yellow fever. One focus is given on parasitic transmission routes. In addition, the authors describe current therapeutic options and sustainable control measures, considering both human and animal health. By highlighting options within the interdisciplinary One Health approach, they round off this work into a cutting-edge reference for diverse expert readers. Scientists and clinicians concerned on public health, entomology, tropical medicine and parasitology not only in Latin America will find this collection particularly valuable. Finally, these contributions are essential in the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals and the targets of SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being) in order to combat and end epidemics of Neglected Tropical Diseases. .
