Abstract

The circulation of West Nile virus in Portugal was assessed by serological surveys conducted during 2004-2010 in horses and birds. The detection of WNV antibodies in both species in all the years covered by the study as well as the presence of anti-WNV IgM in symptomatic horses that had not traveled outside the country, support the notion that WNV circulates in Portugal.

摘要

通过 2004-2010 年在马和鸟类中进行的血清学调查评估了葡萄牙的西尼罗河病毒传播情况。研究涵盖的所有年份中，在这两个物种中均检测到了WNV 抗体，并且在未出国旅行的有症状马中也发现了抗 WNV IgM，这表明 WNV 在葡萄牙流行。
