<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Human hepatitis D virus (HDV), discovered in 1977, represented the sole known deltavirus for decades. The dependence on hepatitis B virus (HBV) co-infection and its glycoproteins for infectious particle formation led to the assumption that deltaviruses are human-only pathogens. However, since 2018, several reports have described identification of HDV-like agents from various hosts but without co...
