Abstract
We detected Marburg virus RNA in rectal swab samples from Egyptian rousette bats in South Africa in 2017. This finding signifies that fecal contamination of natural bat habitats is a potential source of infection for humans. Identified genetic sequences are closely related to Ravn virus, implying wider distribution of Marburg virus in Africa.
摘要
我们在 2017 年于南非的埃及果蝠的直肠拭子样本中检测到马尔堡病毒 RNA。这一发现表明，自然蝙蝠栖息地的粪便污染可能是人类感染的潜在来源。鉴定的遗传序列与 Ravn 病毒密切相关，表明马尔堡病毒在非洲的分布更为广泛。
