Monkeypox is an emerging zoonotic disease recognized as the most important
orthopoxvirus infection in humans in the smallpox post-eradication era. The clinical …

Temporal and spatial fluctuations in the genotype distribution of human rotaviruses are
continuously observed in surveillance studies. New genotypes, such as G9 and G12, have …

We provide an overview of the host range, taxonomic classification and genomic diversity of
animal papillomaviruses. The complete genomes of 112 non-human papillomavirus types …

The prior diagnosis of fatal astrocytoma in a 60-year-old man with Crohn's disease treated
with natalizumab, a monoclonal antibody against α4 integrins, was reclassified as JC virus …

Recently, a classification system was proposed for rotaviruses in which all the 11 genomic
RNA segments are used (Matthijnssens et al. in J Virol 82: 3204–3219, 2008). Based on …

In April 2008, a nucleotide-sequence-based, complete genome classification system was
developed for group A rotaviruses (RVs). This system assigns a specific genotype to each of …

Group A rotavirus classification is currently based on the molecular properties of the two
outer layer proteins, VP7 and VP4, and the middle layer protein, VP6. As reassortment of all …

In the WHO European Region, COVID-19 surveillance was implemented 27 January 2020.
We detail the first European cases. As at 21 February, nine European countries reported 47 …

Coronaviruses are enveloped, positive-stranded RNA viruses with a genome of
approximately 30 kb. Based on genetic similarities, coronaviruses are classified into three …

Rotaviruses (RVs) are responsible for more than 600,000 child deaths each year. The
worldwide introduction of two life oral vaccines RotaTeq and Rotarix is believed to reduce …
