This review focuses on reports of hepatitis E virus, hantavirus, rotavirus, coronavirus, and arenavirus in synanthropic rodents (Rattus rattus, Rattus norvegicus, and Mus musculus) within urban environments. Despite their potential impact on human health, relatively few studies have addressed the monitoring of these viruses in rodents. Comprehensive control and preventive activities should include actions such as the elimination or reduction of rat and mouse populations, sanitary education, reduction of shelters for the animals, and restriction of the access of rodents to residences, water, and food supplies.
本综述重点关注城市环境中栖居性啮齿动物(褐家鼠、黑线姬鼠和小家鼠)中戊型肝炎病毒、汉坦病毒、轮状病毒、冠状病毒和沙粒病毒的报告。尽管这些病毒对人类健康有潜在影响,但相对较少的研究涉及对啮齿动物中这些病毒的监测。全面的控制和预防措施应包括消除或减少鼠群、开展卫生教育、减少动物栖息地、限制啮齿动物进入住所、水和食物供应等行动。
