Cross-Canada Variability in Blood Donor SARS-CoV-2 Seroprevalence by Social Determinants of Health

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
We compared the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 anti-nucleocapsid antibodies in blood donors across Canadian regions in 2021. The seroprevalence was the highest in Alberta and the Prairies, and it was so low in Atlantic Canada that few correlates were ...

Prevalence of Anti-Leptospira Antibodies in Bovines (2018-2023) and Reported Serovars and Serogroups-A Systematic Review With Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
A high global prevalence of anti‐Leptospira antibodies in cattle and buffaloes (39.5%) was identified, highlighting the widespread distribution of the bacterium and the need for increased attention to bovine leptospirosis. The prevalence of anti‐Leptospira antibodies was higher on dual‐purpose farms, but there were no significant differences between ...

Hepatitis A seroprevalence in Tuscany, Italy [PDF]

Eurosurveillance, 2009
Information regarding the current seroprevalence of hepatitis A virus (HAV) is useful for the control of HAV infections. The objective of our study was to evaluate the prevalence of anti-HAV antibodies among children (1-5 years old) and young adults (15-20 years old) in Tuscany, in central Italy.

Seroprevalence of Wenzhou virus in China

Biosafety and Health, 2020
Wenzhou virus (WENV) was first identified in rodents and Asian house shrews in Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, China. However, little is known about the prevalence of WENV infections in humans in China. To determine the threat that WENV may pose to humans, we determine the seroprevalence of WENV in healthy individuals in China in this study.
