Abstract

Toscana virus (TOSV) was detected for the first time from Phlebotomus perniciosus sandflies in Corsica, a French Mediterranean island. Genetic analysis showed that Corsican TOSV belongs to lineage A, together with Italian, Tunisian, Turkish and other French strains. The demonstration of TOSV in Corsica indicates that autochthonous and tourist populations are at risk of infection. Hence, physicians must consider TOSV as a possible cause of aseptic meningitis and unidentified febrile illness during the warm season.

摘要

托斯卡纳病毒（TOSV）首次在科西嘉岛（法国地中海岛屿）的白蛉属按蚊中被检测到。基因分析表明，科西嘉 TOSV 属于谱系 A，与意大利、突尼斯、土耳其和其他法国株系在一起。TOSV 在科西嘉的出现表明，当地居民和游客都有感染的风险。因此，医生在温暖季节时必须将 TOSV 视为无菌性脑膜炎和不明原因发热性疾病的可能病因。
