Serosurveillance and the first detection of Bourbon virus RNA in a wildlife host [PDF]
ABSTRACTBourbon virus (BRBV) is an emerging pathogen that can cause severe and fatal disease in humans. BRBV is vectored byAmblyomma americanum(lone star ticks), which are widely distributed across the central, southern, and eastern United States. Wildlife species are potentially important for the maintenance and transmission of BRBV, but little is ...

Surveillance for Tick-Borne Viruses Near the Location of a Fatal Human Case of Bourbon Virus (Family Orthomyxoviridae: Genus Thogotovirus) in Eastern Kansas, 2015 [PDF]
Journal of Medical Entomology, 2018 Bourbon virus (Family Orthomyxoviridae: Genus Thogotovirus) was first isolated from a human case-patient residing in Bourbon County, Kansas, who subsequently died. Before becoming ill in late spring of 2014, the patient reported several tick bites. In response, we initiated tick surveillance in Bourbon County and adjacent southern Linn County during ...
