Determination of potential infectivity of a new paramyxovirus equine morbillivirus (EMV) from horses to humans and humans to humans as a result of two outbreaks in Queensland which involved 23 horses and three humans.
Seroepidemiological testing using neutralizing and immunofluorescing antibodies on people with variable levels of exposure to infected horses and humans.
All serological testing on a total of 298 individual contacts was negative.
While the three human cases of EMV were probably infected as a result of very close contact with horses, these data suggest that infectivity from horses or humans is very low.
在昆士兰州发生的两起涉及23匹马和3个人的疫情后,确定一种新型副粘病毒——马麻疹病毒(EMV)从马到人的潜在传染性以及人与人之间的潜在传染性。
对接触过感染马匹和人类程度不同的人群,使用中和抗体和免疫荧光抗体进行血清流行病学检测。
对总共298名个体接触者进行的所有血清学检测均为阴性。
虽然3例人类EMV病例可能是由于与马密切接触而感染,但这些数据表明,马或人传播EMV的传染性非常低。
