Can information be spread as a virus? Viral Marketing as epidemiological model [PDF]
Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences,39: 4780--4786, 2016, 2016 In epidemiology, an epidemic is defined as the spread of an infectious disease to a large number of people in a given population within a short period of time. In the marketing context, a message is viral when it is broadly sent and received by the target market through person-to-person transmission.

Maize Lethal Necrosis: An Emerging, Synergistic Viral Disease.
Annual Review of Virology, 2018 Maize lethal necrosis (MLN) is a disease of maize caused by coinfection of maize with maize chlorotic mottle virus (MCMV) and one of several viruses from the Potyviridae, such as sugarcane mosaic virus, maize dwarf mosaic virus, Johnsongrass mosaic virus

A Well Infant With Coronavirus Disease 2019 With High Viral Load
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2020 A well 6-month-old infant with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) had persistently positive nasopharyngeal swabs up to day 16 of admission. This case highlights the difficulties in establishing the true incidence of COVID-19, as asymptomatic individuals

Levels of feline infectious peritonitis virus in blood, effusions, and various tissues and the role of lymphopenia in disease outcome following experimental infection. [PDF]
, 2015 Twenty specific pathogen free cats were experimentally infected with a virulent cat-passaged type I field strain of FIPV. Eighteen cats succumbed within 2-4 weeks to effusive abdominal FIP, one survived for 6 weeks, and one seroconverted without outward ...

Correlation of viral loads in disease transmission chains could bias early estimates of the reproduction number [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Early estimates of the transmission properties of a newly emerged pathogen are critical to an effective public health response, and are often based on limited outbreak data. Here, we use simulations to investigate a potential source of bias in such estimates, arising from correlations between the viral load of cases in transmission chains. We show that

The Multifaceted Role of Annexin A1 in Viral Infections
Cells, 2023 Dysregulated inflammatory responses are often correlated with disease severity during viral infections. Annexin A1 (AnxA1) is an endogenous pro-resolving protein that timely regulates inflammation by activating signaling pathways that culminate with the ...

Isolation of a Novel Bat Rhabdovirus with Evidence of Human Exposure in China
mBio, 2022 Bats are well-recognized reservoirs of zoonotic viruses. Several spillover events from bats to humans have been reported, causing severe epidemic or endemic diseases including severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), SARS-CoV, Middle
