ESCCAP Launches Parasite Infection Maps

ESCCAP is excited to announce the launch of its new interactive parasite infection maps.  This powerful tool provides veterinary professionals with critical insights into the geographical distribution of parasites and parasite-associated infections in companion animals across several European countries.

The maps are populated with data from targeted diagnostic tests, visually representing the percentage of positive results for key parasites and parasite-associated infections in dogs and cats across six European countries.  They depict the percentage of positive tests in screened pets, NOT the overall prevalence of infection and include results from travelled or imported pets, regardless of their origin.

Detailed explanatory text is displayed beneath the visualisations to aid understanding.  For additional context, users can quickly refer to ESCCAP’s guidelines and parasite distribution maps (where available) via intuitive pop-out cards on the screen.

We hope that you will explore this new tool at www.esccap.org/parasite-infection-map/.
