Table 1. Ranked list of key risk factors for Kyasanur Forest Disease produced by cross-sectoral stakeholders during the MonkeyFeverRisk Problem Framing workshop.

Rank	Risk factors	Number of votes	Spatial proxies in models that link to each risk factor
1	Lack of awareness about KFD	10	Proximity to health centre, number of medics per head of population, human population density
2	Under or late reporting of monkey deaths	9	None
2	Deforestation and/or forest degradation	9	Forest loss, human population density, cover of agriculture and plantations, forest and land use diversity
2	Lack of awareness of preventative measures (tick repellants, vaccination)	9	Proximity to health centre and number of medics per head of population
3	Lack of understanding of alternative hosts	8	None, though alternative hosts linked to forest types
4	Human use of forests	7	Cover and diversity of forest types
4	Low vaccination coverage	7	Both factors expected to be linked to Proximity to health centre, number of medics per head of population, human population density
4	Poor diagnostics and surveillance	7
4	Lack of OneHealth policy	7	None
5	Poor data management	6	None
5	Poor understanding of tick ecology	6	None
6	Side effects and concerns about vaccines	5	None
7	Living in or around forests	4	Cover and diversity of forest types
7	Favorable environment for ticks	4	Cover and diversity of forest types, micro-climate availability linked to topography
7	Poor tick identification	4	None
