钩端螺旋体病已成为动物和人类的主要公共卫生问题。由于这种流行病和地方病的非特异性临床表现和实验室确认的困难，可能严重低估了这种流行病和地方病的真正负担。传播动态的复杂性，特别是在流行病情况下，需要协调一致的多学科努力。因此，全球钩端螺旋体病环境行动网络（GLEAN）的发展，以改善全球和地方的战略，如何预测，预防，检测和干预钩端螺旋体病爆发，以预防和控制钩端螺旋体病的高危人群。
Leptospirosis has emerged as a major public health problem in both animals and humans. The true burden of this epidemic and endemic disease is likely to be grossly under-estimated due to the non-specific clinical presentations of the disease and the difficulty of laboratory confirmation. The complexity that surrounds the transmission dynamics, particularly in epidemic situations, requires a coordinated, multi-disciplinary effort. Therefore, the Global Leptospirosis Environmental Action Network (GLEAN) was developed to improve global and local strategies of how to predict, prevent, detect, and intervene in leptospirosis outbreaks in order to prevent and control leptospirosis in high-risk populations.
