Discovering novel zoonotic viruses.
From the emergence of Hendra virus and Menangle virus in Australia to the global pandemics of severe acute respiratory syndrome and influenza viruses (both H5N1 and H1N1), there has been a surge of zoonotic virus outbreaks in the last two decades. Although the drivers for virus emergence remain poorly understood, the rate of discovery of new viruses is accelerating. This is due to a combination...
متن کاملBat Flight and Zoonotic Viruses
Bats are sources of high viral diversity and high-profile zoonotic viruses worldwide. Although apparently not pathogenic in their reservoir hosts, some viruses from bats severely affect other mammals, including humans. Examples include severe acute respiratory syndrome coronaviruses, Ebola and Marburg viruses, and Nipah and Hendra viruses. Factors underlying high viral diversity in bats are the...
متن کاملScience does not speak for itself: translating child development research for the public and its policymakers.
Science has an important role to play in advising policymakers on crafting effective responses to social problems that affect the development of children. This article describes lessons learned from a multiyear, working collaboration among neuroscientists, developmental psychologists, pediatricians, economists, and communications researchers who are engaged in the iterative construction of a co...
متن کاملZoonotic influenza viruses: antigenic and genetic characteristics and development of candidate vaccine viruses for pandemic preparedness.
La sélection et la mise au point de virus vaccinaux candidats représentent les premières étapes vers une production en temps utile des vaccins; mais cela n’implique pas qu’il soit recommandé d’en démarrer la fabrication. Les autorités nationales peuvent envisager d’utiliser un ou plusieurs des virus vaccinaux candidats pour la production de lots pilotes de vaccins, la réalisation d’essais clini...
متن کاملEuropean Bats as Carriers of Viruses with Zoonotic Potential
Bats are being increasingly recognized as reservoir hosts of highly pathogenic and zoonotic emerging viruses (Marburg virus, Nipah virus, Hendra virus, Rabies virus, and coronaviruses). While numerous studies have focused on the mentioned highly human-pathogenic bat viruses in tropical regions, little is known on similar human-pathogenic viruses that may be present in European bats. Although no...
