摘要
我们在乌克兰的兔子身上发现了戊型肝炎病毒(HEV)3ra,这是一种潜在的人畜共患亚型病毒,突出了兔子作为病毒库的潜在作用。对兔子粪便样本的筛查发现了 HEV-3ra。该国的公共卫生服务部门应加强 HEV 监测并扩大 HEV 采样范围。
We identified hepatitis E virus (HEV) 3ra, a potentially zoonotic subtype, in rabbits in Ukraine, which highlights their potential role as reservoirs. Screening of rabbit fecal samples identified HEV-3ra. Public health services in this country should improve HEV surveillance and expand HEV sampling.
期刊介绍:
Emerging Infectious Diseases is a monthly open access journal published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The primary goal of this peer-reviewed journal is to advance the global recognition of both new and reemerging infectious diseases, while also enhancing our understanding of the underlying factors that contribute to disease emergence, prevention, and elimination.
Targeted towards professionals in the field of infectious diseases and related sciences, the journal encourages diverse contributions from experts in academic research, industry, clinical practice, public health, as well as specialists in economics, social sciences, and other relevant disciplines. By fostering a collaborative approach, Emerging Infectious Diseases aims to facilitate interdisciplinary dialogue and address the multifaceted challenges posed by infectious diseases.
