The paper shows that periodic increases in viral load during high prevalence periods in bats correlate with spillover events, suggesting viral load is a better predictor of transmission risk than prevalence alone.

The paper identifies Bartonella and hemotropic Mycoplasma species in synanthropic bats in Kenya and assesses their potential to infect humans.

The paper investigates Borrelia infections in black flying foxes, finding two novel haplotypes distinct from known zoonotic clades.
