New virus discovered in patients with central nervous system
infections

posted by news on june 18, 2013 - 4:30am


Patients in Vietnam and other locations with central nervous system
infections may well be suffering from the effects of a newly
discovered virus, according to a study to be published inmBio�, the
online open-access journal of the American Society for Microbiology.
Researchers have detected the virus in spinal fluid from 4 percent of
642 patients with central nervous system infections of unknown cause,
and in an average of 58 percent of fecal samples from pigs and
poultry, suggesting animals may serve as reservoirs for transmission
to humans. The virus, called CyCV-VN, belongs to the Cyclovirus genus,
a group that has never before been implicated in human or animal
disease...
