Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome, an emerging hemorrhagic fever, is caused by severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV), a tick-borne bunyavirus. Information regarding SFTSV animal hosts is very limited. In this study, we showed that 64% (9/14) of hedgehogs in Shandong Province, China were seropositive to SFTSV antibody, suggesting that hedgehog could be a vertebrate parasitifer for SFTSV.
严重发热伴血小板减少综合征是一种新出现的出血热，由蜱传布尼亚病毒——严重发热伴血小板减少综合征病毒（SFTSV）引起。关于SFTSV动物宿主的信息非常有限。在本研究中，我们发现中国山东省64%（9/14）的刺猬对SFTSV抗体呈血清阳性，这表明刺猬可能是SFTSV的脊椎动物寄生宿主。
