Anticipating the species jump: surveillance for emerging viral threats. [PDF]
Zoonotic disease surveillance is typically triggered after animal pathogens have already infected humans. Are there ways to identify high-risk viruses before they emerge in humans? If so, then how and where can identifications be made and by what methods?

We examined how community assembly processes shape Sin Nombre hantavirus (SNV) dynamics in rodent communities across the southwestern United States. Environmental factors structured community composition, which regulated deer mouse abundance and SNV infection, rather than diversity alone.

INTRODUCTION: Rodent-borne hantaviruses cause severe human diseases. We completed a serological survey of hantavirus infection in rural inhabitants of Turvo County, in the southern State of Santa Catarina, Brazil, in which seropositivity for hantavirus ...

Global Interdependence, Just Vaccine Allocation, and Compensatory Justice: A New Model
ABSTRACT During the COVID‐19 pandemic, numerous models were offered for how scarce vaccine resources should be distributed. Proposed vaccine distribution models generally were divided between nationalist models, which give preference to nationals, and cosmopolitan models, which ignore national boundaries.

In several European countries, diagnosis of nephropathia epidemica, a mild form of haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) caused by Puumala-virus infection, has increased over the past 10-20 years.

SEROLOGIC SURVEY ON HANTAVIRUS IN BLOOD DONORS FROM THE STATE OF SANTA CATARINA, BRAZIL
Emergent diseases such as Hantavirus Cardio-pulmonary Syndrome (HCPS) are able to create a significant impact on human populations due to their seriousness and high fatality rate.

Hantavirus Infection of Dendritic Cells [PDF]
ABSTRACTDendritic cells (DCs) play a pivotal role as antigen-presenting cells in the antiviral immune response. Here we show that Hantaan virus (HTNV), which belongs to theBunyaviridaefamily (genusHantavirus) and causes hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome, productively infects human DCs in vitro.

New Insights Into the Evolution of Immune Adaptors in Murid Rodents
TIR domain‐containing adaptors were evolved under purifying selection in murine. Positively selected sites were identified in Mal and Myd88 genes. Reduced genetic diversity of each adaptor gene was observed in two rat populations. Shared polymorphisms were common phenomena in rat adaptors.

Summary: Emerging picture of hantavirus infection in the South America is characterized by greater proportion of childhood infection and wider spectrum of disease from mild asymptomatic to lethal cardiopulmonary disease.

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Go Viral [PDF]
Neutrophils are the most numerous immune cells. Their importance as the first line of defense against bacterial and fungal pathogens is well described. In contrast, the role of neutrophils in controlling viral infections is less clear.
