Following two consecutive years of West Nile virus (WNV) circulation in Italy, new foci of infection were observed in August 2010 in Sicily and Molise in southern and central Italy, respectively. These incidents were far from the previous infected area in northern Italy, thereby confirming the ability of WNV to spread to new areas and affect new host populations.
在意大利连续两年出现西尼罗河病毒(WNV)传播之后,2010年8月分别在意大利南部的西西里岛和中部的莫利塞发现了新的感染源。这些事件发生地远离意大利北部先前的感染区域,从而证实了西尼罗河病毒传播到新区域并影响新宿主种群的能力。
