Junín Virus Pathogenesis and Virus Replication [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2012
Junín virus, the etiological agent of Argentine hemorrhagic fever, causes significant morbidity and mortality. The virus is spread through the aerosolization of host rodent excreta and endemic to the humid pampas of Argentina. Recently, significant progress has been achieved with the development of new technologies (e.g.

Global Organization and Proposed Megataxonomy of the Virus World

open access: yesMicrobiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2020
Viruses and mobile genetic elements are molecular parasites or symbionts that coevolve with nearly all forms of cellular life. The route of virus replication and protein expression is determined by the viral genome type. Comparison of these routes led to

Indirect Virus Transmission in Cluster of COVID-19 Cases, Wenzhou, China, 2020

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
To determine possible modes of virus transmission, we investigated a cluster of coronavirus disease cases associated with a shopping mall in Wenzhou, China. Data indicated that indirect transmission of the causative virus occurred, perhaps resulting from
