Detection of West Nile Virus in Oral and Cloacal Swabs Collected from Bird Carcasses
We evaluated if postmortem cloacal and oral swabs could replace brain tissue as a specimen for West Nile virus (WNV) detection. WNV was detected in all three specimen types from 20 dead crows and jays with an average of >105 WNV PFU in each.
