- In a study involving golden hamsters, over 50% of the inoculated animals exhibited symptoms like lethargy and paralysis, and about one-third died.
- The research identified high levels of OROV in the blood, liver, and brain, along with significant tissue damage, marking the first experimental model for studying OROV and potential treatments.
