Persistent Zoonotic Infection of a Human with Simian Foamy Virus in the Absence of an Intactorf-2Accessory Gene

1 Nov 1999

Abstract excerpt

Although foamy viruses (FVs) are endemic among nonhuman primates, FV infection among humans is rare. Recently, simian foamy virus (SFV) infection was reported in 4 of 231 individuals occupationally exposed to primates (1.8%). Secondary transmission to spouses has not been seen, suggesting that while FV is readily zoonotic, humans may represent dead-end hosts. Among different simian species, SFV demonstrates...
