Vector-Borne Disease Epidemiology, Ecology & Response Hub
VEER is a collaboration of people and institutions committed to the protection of people, animals, and livelihoods from vector-borne diseases (VBD)
About VEER
Since 2004, vector-borne disease cases reported in the US have increased more than three-fold*. The VEER Hub is working to address this issue through research informing the development and implementation of evidence-based, cost-effective surveillance and response systems for vector-borne diseases.
