Norovirus Seroprevalence among Adults in the United States: Analysis of NHANES Serum Specimens from 1999–2000 and 2003–2004

Viruses, 2020
Norovirus is the most common cause of epidemic and endemic acute gastroenteritis. However, national estimates of the infection burden are challenging. This study used a nationally representative serum bank to estimate the seroprevalence to five norovirus

Seroprevalence of Zika virus in wild African green monkeys and baboons [PDF]

, 2017
Zika virus (ZIKV) has recently spread through the Americas and has been associated with a range of health effects, including birth defects in children born to women infected during pregnancy. Although the natural reservoir of ZIKV remains poorly defined,

Identification and Phylogenetic Characterisation of Novel Adeno‐Associated Virus Capsids in Non‐Human Primate Tissues

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
AAV's widespread application is currently confronting critical challenges. This study established a systematic framework of ‘natural discovery–evolutionary analysis–functional optimization’, providing a new paradigm for the development of next‐generation AAV vectors with clinical‐grade tissue specificity, low immunogenicity, and cross‐species ...

Seroprevalence of Dengue and Chikungunya Virus Antibodies, French Polynesia, 2014–2015

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
We investigated dengue and chikungunya virus antibody seroprevalence in French Polynesia during 2014–2015. Dengue virus seroprevalence was ≈60% among schoolchildren and >83% among the general population; chikungunya virus seroprevalence was

Comparison of SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence estimates between commercial lab serum specimens and blood donor specimens, United States, September–December 2021

Microbiology Spectrum
We estimated monthly cross-sectional seroprevalence rates of anti-nucleocapsid (anti-N) and anti-spike (anti-S) antibodies to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in two U.S. nationwide studies. The nationwide blood donor seroprevalence (NBDS)

Nationwide estimates of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection fatality rates and numbers needed to vaccinate for COVID‐19 vaccines in 2024 in Austria

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
In 2024, Austria's infection fatality rate (IFR) for SARS‐CoV‐2 was .048%, indicating a low COVID‐19 mortality risk. Using literature‐based vaccine effectiveness estimates, numbers needed to vaccinate (NNV) to prevent one death and one life‐year saved (LYS) were extremely high across all age groups, except among the very old.
