Incidence in [Market]

Leishmaniasis  is an endemic disease in  98 countries  around the world.

Canine leishmaniasis has an incidence of up to 30% in Spain1

The widespread rise in temperatures has changed the paradigm regarding canine leishmaniasis prevention in Spain. The main vector, the sandfly, is present throughout virtually all of Spain, found in both rural and urban environments. Furthermore, the sandfly has increased its activity period, being detected earlier than usual and delaying its disappearance, and can remain active until December2.

We must not forget that this serious disease has an impact on public health and is at risk year-round , so effective prevention is key.
