This paper reports Germany's first Foot-and-Mouth Disease outbreak in 37 years, analyzing its origin, transmission potential, and control measures.

This study evaluates a human DPP4 transgenic hamster model for MERS-CoV infection and transmission, showing efficient viral replication and similar clinical outcomes with two MERS-CoV strains.

This study establishes in vivo infection models for RusV in wood mice and rats, showing persistent infection and mucosal shedding in wood mice, suggesting them as potential reservoir hosts.

This study shows that combining Nirmatrelvir with GRP78 inhibitors strongly reduces SARS-CoV-2 replication in vitro and in a hamster model.

This study validates in silico predictions of Wuhan sharpbelly bornavirus (WhSBV) by showing its ability to infect and persist in cypriniform fish cells, while exhibiting restricted replication in other species.

This study investigates H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b virus infection in calves and lactating cows, finding that mammary gland infection causes severe mastitis and reduced milk production, with transmission likely via milk rather than respiratory routes.

A unique HPAIV H5N3 genotype caused mass mortality in red knots in 2020, suggesting red knots may act as a reservoir for the virus.

This paper shows that combining N4-hydroxycytidine and DHODH inhibitors strongly reduces SARS-CoV-2 replication in cell cultures.
