Viruses, 2020 Despite being the first country to register confirmed cases of Mokola and Lagos bat lyssaviruses (two very distant lyssaviruses), knowledge gaps, particularly on the molecular epidemiology of lyssaviruses, still exist in Nigeria. A total of 278 specimens

Incursion of European Bat Lyssavirus 1 (EBLV-1) in Serotine Bats in the United Kingdom
Viruses, 2021 Lyssaviruses are an important genus of zoonotic viruses which cause the disease rabies. The United Kingdom is free of classical rabies (RABV). However, bat rabies due to European bat lyssavirus 2 (EBLV-2), has been detected in Daubenton’s bats (Myotis ...

Airborne transmission of lyssaviruses [PDF]
Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2006 In 2002, a Scottish bat conservationist developed a rabies-like disease and subsequently died. This was caused by infection with European bat lyssavirus 2 (EBLV-2), a virus closely related to Rabies virus (RABV). The source of this infection and the means of transmission have not yet been confirmed.

Viruses, 2021 Lyssaviruses are neurotropic rhabdoviruses thought to be restricted to mammalian hosts, and to originate from bats. The identification of lyssavirus sequences from amphibians and reptiles by metatranscriptomics thus comes as a surprise and challenges the

Lyssaviruses in Insectivorous Bats, South Africa, 2003–2018
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020 We detected 3 lyssaviruses in insectivorous bats sampled in South Africa during 2003–2018. We used phylogenetic analysis to identify Duvenhage lyssavirus and a potentially new lyssavirus, provisionally named Matlo bat lyssavirus, that is related to West ...

Anti-rabies vaccines applied in the Russian Federation and perspectives for their improvement
Вопросы вирусологии, 2022 Rabies is almost ubiquitous (except in certain areas) and poses a significant danger to both animals and humans. Every year around 55,000 people die from this disease worldwide.

Comparative pathogenesis of different phylogroup I bat lyssaviruses in a standardized mouse model.
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022 A plethora of bat-associated lyssaviruses potentially capable of causing the fatal disease rabies are known today. Transmitted via infectious saliva, occasionally-reported spillover infections from bats to other mammals demonstrate the permeability of ...

Genomic Surveillance of Rabies Virus in Georgian Canines
Viruses, 2023 Rabies is a fatal zoonosis that is considered a re-emerging infectious disease. Although rabies remains endemic in canines throughout much of the world, vaccination programs have essentially eliminated dog rabies in the Americas and much of Europe ...

Lyssaviruses and the Fatal Encephalitic Disease Rabies [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Lyssaviruses cause the disease rabies, which is a fatal encephalitic disease resulting in approximately 59,000 human deaths annually. The prototype species, rabies lyssavirus, is the most prevalent of all lyssaviruses and poses the greatest public health threat.
