Discovery and Characterization of Novel RNA Viruses in Aquatic North American Wild Birds
Viruses, 2019 Wild birds are recognized viral reservoirs but our understanding about avian viral diversity is limited. We describe here three novel RNA viruses that we identified in oropharyngeal/cloacal swabs collected from wild birds.

Respiratory Viruses in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients
Viruses, 2021 Solid organ transplantation is often lifesaving, but does carry an increased risk of infection. Respiratory viral infections are one of the most prevalent infections, and are a cause of significant morbidity and mortality, especially among lung ...

Human Metapneumovirus Infections during COVID-19 Pandemic, Spain
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023 We describe an unusual outbreak of respiratory infections caused by human metapneumovirus in children during the sixth wave of COVID-19 in Spain, associated with the Omicron variant. Patients in this outbreak were older than usual and showed more hypoxia

Whole genome sequencing and evolution analyses of Human metapneumovirus
Virus genes, 2023 Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a major pathogen of acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) in children. Whole genome sequence analyses could help understand the evolution and transmission events of this virus.

Human Metapneumovirus in Adults [PDF]
Viruses, 2013 Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a relative newly described virus. It was first isolated in 2001 and currently appears to be one of the most significant and common human viral infections. Retrospective serologic studies demonstrated the presence of HMPV antibodies in humans more than 50 years earlier.
