This study shows Jamaican fruit bats are susceptible to henipaviruses but rapidly control infection following oral exposure.

This study investigates mpox virus transmission in prairie dogs, finding that anogenital mucosal routes lead to high shedding and efficient transmission.

The study compares contact transmissibility of human, bovine, and mountain lion H5N1 isolates in Syrian hamsters, finding human isolate has higher contact transmissibility despite limited overall transmission.

This study compares the tissue tropism of two HPAI H5N1 isolates in mice, finding that the bovine isolate replicates in the brain and causes more neurotropism and inflammation than the human isolate.

The paper assesses the environmental stability of H5N1 influenza virus in raw milk, wastewater, and on surfaces, finding slow decay in milk suggests transmission risks.

This study evaluates the fitness and pathogenesis of Omicron variants in the upper and lower respiratory tracts, finding increased URT fitness with reduced lung pathology.

This study evaluates a bivalent Adenovirus-Vectored Vaccine in cynomolgus macaques against Sudan virus, finding it induces humoral responses but does not confer protection against lethal challenge.
