Infectious viral pathogens significantly impact wild Leporidae populations, particularly , which was listed as 'Endangered' in 2019. Myxomatosis and rabbit haemorrhagic disease are major contributors to severe epizootics with limited long-lasting immunity. This study expanded beyond these well-documented viruses to include a broader spectrum of viruses in 36 wild rabbit carcasses () collected from the field in 2018, 2019, 2021 and 2024, and 32 wild rabbits hunted in 2017/2018.

Probiotics have shown efficacy in preventing and reducing infections caused by common viruses, including rotavirus, norovirus, hepatitis, human papillomavirus (HPV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and herpes simplex virus (HSV). A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-arm parallel-group study was conducted on 56 patients with moderate COVID-19 symptoms. Patients were randomly assigned to one of the three groups: standard treatment combined with UBBC-07, standard treatment combined with Unique IS-2, or standard treatment with a placebo.

Rotavirus A (RVA) is the primary enteric pathogen of humans and many other species. However, RVA interspecies transmission remains poorly understood. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive screening and genotyping analysis of RVA in 1706 wild animal samples collected from various regions within Yunnan Province, China.

Genome Characterization of Mammalian Orthoreovirus and Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus Isolated from the Same Fattening Pig.

Department of Preventive Veterinary Medicine, College of Veterinary Medicine, Northwest A&F University, Yangling 712100, China.

In 2020, severe diarrhea occurred in four-month-old fattening pigs from nine farms in Shandong Province, China. Fecal samples were collected from diseased pigs and tested by PCR for the presence of mammalian orthoreovirus (MRV), porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV), porcine rotavirus A (PoRVA), transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), porcine kobuvirus (PKV), and pseudorabies virus (PRV). The viral RNA of MRV and PEDV was detected in the fecal samples.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on the prevalence of various viruses causing acute gastroenteritis (AGE) in children under five years old in Yunnan, China.
  • Over 610 stool samples were analyzed, revealing that rotavirus (RVA) was present in nearly 29% of the cases, with G8P[8] emerging as the dominant genotype in 2022.
  • Norovirus was detected in about 12% of the samples, with GII.4 being the most common strain, while other viruses like sapovirus and human adenovirus had lower positivity rates.
  • The results indicated higher AGE incidence in male children, particularly among those aged 12-23 months, with infection rates peaking in the early months of the year, highlighting
