“…The consumption of raw or undercooked meat as well as the consumption of unwashed fruits and vegetables are the most common transmission routes in the literature [29]. As for contact with soiled soil, it seems that this is considered rather as a risk factor, even if the literature still diverges somewhat [27][28][29]. As far as cats are concerned, the current literature is contradictory [29][30][31].…”

As far as cats are concerned, the current literature is contradictory [29][30][31]. On the one hand, several studies mention a correlation between T. gondii infection and the possession of a cat, while other investigators find no link.…”

immunocompetent individual; however, severe forms are observed in the immunocompromised and in pregnant women, in particular for the fetus, because of the serious central neurological lesions which it causes, and because of the death in utero which it can cause [6, 7]. Toxoplasmic infection, asymptomatic in the majority of cases, is all the more serious since maternal primary infection occurs early in pregnancy and there is an associated placental pathology [8-11].The disease has a complex epidemiology which makes it difficult to estimate prevalence [12, 13].

“…However, we must point out that, while part of the current public deficit can be determined by government spending to repay previous loans and the interest and other costs related to these loans scheduled for the current year, the other part of the public deficit is generated in particular by macroeconomic conditions. Consequently, the literature agrees that, depending on the macroeconomic conditions in which the national and global economy evolves, but also on the structure of the public debt and the conditions of its repayment (Ferry et al, 2021), the dimensions of the current public debt are influenced by macroeconomic determinants such as economic growth, trade openness, inflation, the exchange rate, the interest rate, investment and unemployment. In addition to these economic determinants, the literature shows that there are also institutional or political factors that determine the level of a country's public debt Guscina, 2008).…”

The massive drain on resources that tax evasion represents, is undermining the dynamic of optimal mobilisation of national resources. In particular, it is essential to recover the resources needed to finance the State's activities and ensure its external and internal solvency. The ability of economies to achieve sustainable development objectives depends essentially on the security of public finances. The mobilisation of both tax and non-tax revenues is a key element for many governments. This study therefore analyses the effect of tax evasion in the natural resources sector on the external debt of 14 African countries, over the period 2009-2022. The results of this analysis are revealing on two levels: firstly, the use of several estimation techniques, such as Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) and Pooled Least Squares (PLS), shows a positive and significant direct effect of tax evasion in the natural resources sector on external debt in Africa. This basic result is robust to alternative estimation techniques such as Instrumental Variable Least Squares (IV-2SLS) and System Generalized Least Squares (S-GMM). Second, the consideration of governance variables as transmission channels, shows negative and moderating effects on indebtedness. On the basis of these results, we suggest that good governance should be put in place to mobilise tax revenues and strengthen controls on international profit transfers.
