Variegated Squirrel Bornavirus 1 in Squirrels, Germany and the Netherlands
Emerging Infectious Diseases
|February 22, 2017
Abstract:
We screened squirrels in Germany and the Netherlands for the novel zoonotic variegated squirrel bornavirus 1 (VSBV-1). The detection of VSBV-1 in 11 squirrels indicates a considerable risk for transmission to humans handling those animals. Therefore, squirrels in contact with humans should routinely be tested for VSBV-1.
