ABSTRACT Parasites are expected to hybridise in similar ways to free‐living organisms, although this may be modified by their reduced genome architecture. Recombinant strains and taxa of hybrid origin can be studied in nature where hosts come into secondary contact. Here we apply genome‐wide analysis to parasites from a contact previously characterised

Treatment of Severe Adenovirus Infection With HAdV‐B21 in a Young Obese Male With Normal Immunity
ABSTRACT Adenovirus infections are usually mild, but rare serotypes like “HAdV‐B21” can cause severe pneumonia even in healthy individuals. We report a 32‐year‐old immunocompetent obese male who developed life‐threatening HAdV‐B21 pneumonia (PaO2/FiO2 62 mmHg), requiring mechanical ventilation.
