This study compares immune responses and pathogenesis in pigs infected with two porcine respiratory coronavirus strains, finding that a more severe strain induces stronger inflammation and immune responses linked to pneumonia.
The paper uses the basic reproduction ratio (R0) to quantify EHDV transmission in cattle and deer, identifies temperature dependence, and highlights data gaps in European deer and wildlife-livestock transmission.
