Bordetella bronchiseptica is a gram-negative coccobacillus that colonizes the respiratory system of mammals such as dogs, cats, rabbits and others and might cause upper respiratory tract infections. Although it can be rarely pathogenic in humans, there are several case reports describing infections in humans. We describe the case of a patient without prolonged immunosuppression or underlying diseases, with bacteremia from Bordetella bronchiseptica, while being treated in a tertiary hospital for COVID-19 infection.

Article Synopsis
- Porcine respiratory diseases significantly affect pig production, with common pathogens like Streptococcus suis and Pasteurella multocida also posing risks to human health.
- The overuse of traditional antibiotics has led to antimicrobial resistance, highlighting the need for alternative treatments such as antimicrobial peptides (AMPs).
- Oreochromicin-2 (Oreoch-2), an AMP from fish, showed promising results in reducing bacterial loads and improving health in pigs, making it a potential candidate for treating respiratory diseases in swine.

Introduction: is bacterial pathogen that is pervasive in swine populations and serves multiple roles in respiratory disease.
Methods: This study utilized whole-genome sequencing (WGS) analysis to assess the sequence type (ST), identify the genetic diversity of genes predicted to encode regulatory and virulence factors, and evaluated any potential antimicrobial resistance harbored by isolates obtained from swine within the U.S.
Introduction: Feline respiratory tract infection poses a serious challenge in animal shelters. Potential risk factors include pathogens introduced through animals entering the shelter. We aimed to determine the proportion of animals shedding feline upper respiratory tract (URT) pathogens at the time of entry and to assess how this contributed to the burden of clinical disease and final outcomes.

Background: Feline respiratory disease complex (FRDC) is a set of illnesses which are primarily associated with different types of viruses and bacteria. There is scarcity of data on pathogens associated with FRDC in China.
Objectives: The primary objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence and dynamics of FRDC pathogens in China.
