Aerosol Transmission of Norovirus

open access: yesViruses
Norovirus (NoV) is a major cause of acute gastroenteritis outbreaks worldwide. A comprehensive understanding of the transmission mode is of great significance for the prevention and control of the NoV infection. Currently, the transmission modes of NoV include contact, food-borne, water-borne and aerosol transmission.

Animals as Reservoir for Human Norovirus [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Norovirus is the most common cause of non-bacterial gastroenteritis and is a burden worldwide. The increasing norovirus diversity is currently categorized into at least 10 genogroups which are further classified into more than 40 genotypes. In addition to humans, norovirus can infect a broad range of hosts including livestock, pets, and wild animals, e.

Epidemiologic challenges in norovirus vaccine development

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2019
Norovirus is the leading cause of acute gastroenteritis (AGE) worldwide. In the United States norovirus is estimated to cause 19–21 million illnesses, 1.7–1.9 million outpatient visits, 56,000–71,000 hospitalizations, and 570–800 deaths annually. Through

Mechanisms of enteric neuropathy in diverse contexts of gastrointestinal dysfunction

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Abstract The enteric nervous system (ENS) commands moment‐to‐moment gut functions through integrative neurocircuitry housed in the gut wall. The functional continuity of ENS networks is disrupted in enteric neuropathies and contributes to major disturbances in normal gut activities including abnormal gut motility, secretions, pain, immune dysregulation,

Managing infectious aerosols to counter engineered pandemics: Current recommendations and future research

open access: yesRisk Analysis, EarlyView.
Abstract In the increasingly likely event of an engineered‐virus outbreak or pandemic of catastrophic potential, managing infectious aerosols to reduce transmission will be crucial. Now is the time to start preparing our buildings, public opinion, and regulatory environments for the infectious aerosol management interventions necessary to protect the ...

Coupling wastewater‐based epidemiology with data‐driven machine learning for managing public health risks

open access: yesRisk Analysis, EarlyView.
Abstract Traditional health surveillance methods play a critical role in public health safety but are limited by the data collection speed, coverage, and resource requirements. Wastewater‐based epidemiology (WBE) has emerged as a cost‐effective and rapid tool for detecting infectious diseases through sewage analysis of disease biomarkers.

Urban political ecologies of sewage surveillance: Creating vital and valuable public health data from wastewater

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Abstract With the outbreak of COVID‐19, wastewater surveillance for public health rapidly emerged and expanded globally. In this article we chart the variegated ecosystem of private firms that work closely with public and non‐profit entities to transform metabolic flows of sewage into vital and valuable bioinformation, thereby creating new multi ...

Norovirus Disease in the United States

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
Although recognized as the leading cause of epidemic acute gastroenteritis across all age groups, norovirus has remained poorly characterized with respect to its endemic disease incidence.

The Effect of Alcohol‐Based Virucidal Hand Sanitizers on Skin Barrier Function—A Randomised Experimental Study

open access: yesContact Dermatitis, Volume 93, Issue 2, Page 119-130, August 2025.
Our study suggests that the irritative potential of alcohol‐based virucidal hand rubs (ABVHRs) varies, likely due to differences in alcohol type (1‐propanol in particular) and to the proportions and concentrations of alcohols or alcohol mixtures used. PA appears to be well tolerated and may enhance virucidal activity.

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on norovirus circulation in Germany

open access: yesInternational Journal of Medical Microbiology
Human norovirus is a major cause of viral gastroenteritis in all age groups. The virus is constantly and rapidly changing, allowing mutations and recombination events to create great diversity of circulating viruses.
