Shuni Virus in Wildlife and Nonequine Domestic Animals, South Africa
We screened nonequine animals with unexplained neurologic signs or death in South Africa during 2010–2018 for Shuni virus (SHUV). SHUV was detected in 3.3% of wildlife, 1.1% of domestic, and 2.0% of avian species.

Examining bull semen for residues of Schmallenberg virus RNA
Abstract Schmallenberg orthobunyavirus (SBV) was initially detected in 2011 in Germany from dairy cattle with fever and decreased milk yield. The virus infection is now established in many parts of the world with recurrent epidemics. SBV is transmitted through midges and transplacental.

ISG20: an enigmatic antiviral RNase targeting multiple viruses
ISG20 is a broad antiviral inhibitor and a potent RNase in vitro. However, a precise understanding of its mechanism of action is lacking. In this review, we discuss the latest developments on this fascinating innate defense factor. Interferon‐stimulated gene 20 kDa protein (ISG20) is a relatively understudied antiviral protein capable of inhibiting a ...

Zoonotic and reverse zoonotic transmission of viruses between humans and pigs
Humans and pigs share a close contact relationship, similar biological traits, and one of the highest estimated number of viruses compared to other mammalian species. The contribution and directionality of viral exchange between humans and pigs remain unclear for some of these viruses, but their transmission routes are important to characterize in ...

Molecular characterization of medically important viruses of the genus Orthobunyavirus
We have characterized the full-length S segment RNA sequences of five human pathogens of the virus family Bunyaviridae, genus Orthobunyavirus. S segment sequences of Fort Sherman, Shokwe and Xingu viruses of the Bunyamwera serogroup, as well as those of Bwamba and Pongola viruses of the Bwamba serogroup, are described. S segment sequences of Bwamba and

Abstract Vectors of emerging infectious diseases have expanded their distributional ranges in recent decades due to increased global travel, trade connectivity and climate change. Transboundary range shifts, arising from the continuous movement of humans and livestock across borders, are of particular disease control concern.

Human Orthobunyavirus Infections, Tefé, Amazonas, Brazil [PDF]
Several orthobunyaviruses are important arthropod-borne pathogens, responsible for a variety of diseases in humans, from acute febrile illness to encephalitis.We collected serum samples from a series of dengue suspected cases in Tefé, a mid-size city located in the interior of the Amazonas state, Brazil.

No Evidence of Ntwetwe Virus Infections in Children Presenting to Kiboga Hospital, Uganda
We investigated whether Ntwetwe virus—a novel orthobunyavirus discovered in a Ugandan girl with a fatal encephalopathy—was a common reason for hospital admission for children to Kiboga hospital, Uganda. A case–control was conducted between September 2019

Shuni virus‐induced meningoencephalitis after experimental infection of cattle
Abstract Shuni virus (SHUV), an insect‐transmitted orthobunyavirus of the Simbu serogroup within the family Peribunyaviridae, may induce severe congenital malformations when naïve ruminants are infected during gestation. Only recently, another clinical presentation in cattle, namely neurological disease after postnatal infection, was reported.
