Emergence and spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants from farmed mink to humans and back during the epidemic in Denmark, June-November 2020.

T. B. Rasmussen, A. G. Qvesel, A. G. Pedersen, A. S. Olesen, J. Fonager, M. Rasmussen, R. N. Sieber, M. Stegger, F. F. C. Artavia, M. J. F. Goedknegt, E. R. Thuesen, L. Lohse, S. Mortensen, A. Fomsgaard, A. E. Boklund, , G. J. Belsham

This study tracks the emergence and spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants between mink and humans in Denmark, identifying multiple transmission routes and estimating cross-species transmission events.

Inefficient transmission of African swine fever virus to sentinel pigs from environmental contamination under experimental conditions

A. S. Olesen, L. Lohse, F. Accensi, H. Goldswain, G. J. Belsham, A. Botner, C. Netherton, L. K. Dixon, R. Portugal

This study investigates the risk of African swine fever virus (ASFV) transmission to naive pigs from contaminated environments, finding no transmission despite detectable viral DNA in environmental samples.

Release of fragmented host, cell-free, genomic DNA into the circulation of pigs during infection by virulent African swine fever virus

A. S. Olesen, L. Lohse, C. M. Johnston, T. B. Rasmussen, A. Botner, G. J. Belsham

This study shows that ASFV infection in pigs leads to a >1000-fold increase in circulating cell-free DNA, which may serve as a marker for virulent infection, unlike CSFV infection.

Infection, recovery and re-infection of farmed mink with SARS-CoV-2

T. B. Rasmussen, J. Fonager, C. S. Jorgensen, R. Lassauniere, A. S. Hammer, M. L. Quaade, A. Boklund, L. Lohse, B. Strandbygaard, M. Rasmussen, T. Y. Michaelsen, S. Mortensen, A. Fomsgaard, G. J. Belsham, A. Botner

This study shows that mink can recover from SARS-CoV-2 infection, become seropositive, and then be re-infected, with higher antibody levels post-re-infection.

Evolutionary stasis of an RNA virus indicates arbovirus re-emergence triggered by accidental release

D. J. Pascall, K. Nomikou, E. Breard, S. Zientara, A. da Silva Filipe, B. Hoffmann, M. Jacquot, J. B. Singer, K. De Clercq, A. Botner, C. Sailleau, C. Viarouge, C. Batten, G. Puggioni, C. Ligios, , M. Palmarini

This study uses genomic data to show that a BTV-8 virus strain re-emerged in 2015 without significant evolution, suggesting accidental release rather than natural persistence.
