    <description>Mumps incidence in Shandong declined after vaccine introduction but remained above WHO elimination thresholds; the study provides whole-genome evidence that genotype F strains did not detectably diverge or drift away from the vaccine strain over ~12 years, while illustrating that SH-gene typing alone lacks resolution for closely related isolates.</description>

    <description>The authors frame the projections as motivation for forward-looking, spatially targeted surveillance and control of human echinococcosis in western China using a One Health approach, given anticipated shifts in alveolar echinococcosis endemicity and expansion of cystic echinococcosis endemicity under climate change.</description>

    <description>Maintaining robust vaccination coverage alone may not sustain community protection once elimination targets are met. Residual vulnerability arises from declining antibody concentrations, postponed dosing schedules, and inconsistent immunization records, indicating that programmatic strategies should incorporate immune status tracking alongside traditional monitoring approaches.</description>

    <description>The findings underscore the importance of routine cattle surveillance for predicting and responding to human brucellosis cases. The authors suggest that without changes to current prevention measures, brucellosis will likely remain prevalent in both cattle and people, informing policies on animal surveillance and livestock movement to protect public health.</description>
