Age-dependent pathogenicity of two severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome viruses in a ferret model
2026-03-16
Abstract excerpt
SFTSV is an emerging tick-borne pathogen associated with high case fatality rates, particularly in elderly patients. While severe pathogenicity has been reported in aged ferrets, lethal or clinically significant infection in younger animals and genotype-dependent differences in pathogenicity remain insufficiently defined. In this study, we established a ferret infection model using two Korean clinical isolates rep...
