During a vaccinia virus (VACV) outbreak in São Paulo State, Brazil, blood samples were collected from cows, humans, other domestic animals, and wild mammals. Samples from 3 dogs and 3 opossums were positive for VACV by PCR. Results of gene sequencing yielded major questions regarding other mammalian species acting as reservoirs of VACV.
在巴西圣保罗州发生牛痘病毒(VACV)疫情期间,采集了牛、人类、其他家畜和野生哺乳动物的血液样本。通过聚合酶链反应(PCR)检测,3只狗和3只负鼠的样本呈VACV阳性。基因测序结果引发了关于其他哺乳动物物种作为VACV宿主的重大问题。
