Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021 Background: Previous serological screenings have indicated that Eurasian semi-domesticated tundra reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) in Finnmark, Northern Norway, are exposed to alphaherpesvirus, gammaherpesvirus and pestivirus. Alphaherpesvirus (i.e.,

Sheep-to-Human Transmission of Orf Virus during Eid al-Adha Religious Practices, France
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013 Five persons in France were infected with Orf virus after skin wounds were exposed to infected sheep tissues during Eid al-Adha, the Muslim Feast of Sacrifice. Infections were confirmed by electron microscopy, PCR, and sequence analysis.

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.This study performs pan‐viromic profiling of 14,529 samples from 5,710 domestic herbivores across five Chinese provinces, establishing the DhCN‐Virome (1,085,360 viral metagenomes). It reveals species/sample‐specific viromic signatures and cross‐species transmission dynamics, aiding unified disease control.

Recovery of the first full-length genome sequence of a parapoxvirus directly from a clinical sample
Scientific Reports, 2017 We recovered the first full-length poxvirus genome, including the terminal hairpin region, directly from complex clinical material using a combination of second generation short read and third generation nanopore sequencing technologies.

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2026.Immune cells infected by therapeutic poxviruses release increased amounts of extracellular vesicles bearing viral proteins and therapeutic payloads. Such EVs have the ability to activate a CD8+ T‐cell mediated antitumoral immune response and decrease tumor growth.

Infection Risk From Humans and Animals in the Anatomy Laboratory: A Scoping Review
Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 346-367, April 2026.ABSTRACT Whole‐body dissection is a cornerstone of anatomy education. During and following the COVID‐19 pandemic, exposure to infectious agents and other risks of dissection were highlighted. To identify potential risks, one must have the data outlining these risks in specific situations.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 7, April 2026.ABSTRACT Host species have evolved different strategies for dealing with parasites. ‘Vulnerable’ hosts, which suffer reduced fitness from parasites, are under selection to evolve defences. ‘Tolerant’ hosts, by contrast, avoid reductions in fitness by mitigating parasite damage.

Genetic and Antigenic Heterogeneity of Different Parapoxvirus Strains
Intervirology, 1980 Six stomatitis papulosa and three Orf virus strains were compared by serology and by DNA restriction analysis. A neutralization kinetic study revealed extensive serological cross-reactivity between all strains, but did not allow their classification. Restriction analysis of viral DNAs revealed two distinct groups among the stomatitis papulosa strains ...

Orf parapoxvirus infection from a cat scratch
Dermatology Online Journal, 2011 A 53-year-old woman presented with an enlarging, tender, ulcerated nodule on her dorsal hand after being scratched by a stray kitten. Histology was consistent with orf parapoxvirus infection. The lesion resolved without scarring after several weeks of treatment with imiquimod 5 percent cream. Orf is a zoonosis transmitted to humans from sheep and goats
