Emerging zoonotic (respiratory) viruses in birds, bats and pigs. Surveillance, (meta)genomics, pathogenesis, virus ecology, evolution. Opinions are my own.
Come find me today at the American Society for Virology in Montreal, Canada, where I will present about the emergence of a novel reassortant clade 2.3.2.1c/e virus associated with human cases in Cambodia!

SCCV is closely related to Tai Forest Reovirus (TFRV), previously found in African bats found in 18.4% of bat bugs collected from cave-dwelling bats.
SCCV was successfully isolated in several mammalian cell lines, showing potential to infect vertebrate hosts.

In a new study, using #metagenomics we discovered a novel Coltivirus, named Stricticimex coltivirus (SCCV), in a newly identified bat bug species in #Cambodia (Stricticimex phnomsampovensis) #OneHealth

Cambodia reports second fatal human #H5N1 case in 2025 in a 2 y/o child from Prey Veng province on Feb 25. Exposure to sick and dead chickens near his home.
#Avian #influenza remains a serious threat. Strengthening #OneHealth surveillance and response is critical. #BirdFlu
