West Nile virus detection in horses in three Brazilian states


We report genetic evidence of WNV circulation from southern and northeastern Brazilian states isolated from equine red blood cells. In the northeastern state the tenth human case was also detected, presenting neuroinvasive disease compatible with WNV infection.

Our analyses demonstrate that much is still unknown on the virus’ local epidemiology. We advocate for a shift to active surveillance, to ensure adequate control for future epidemics with spill-over potential to humans.
