To determine seroprevalence of viruses in bats in Papua New Guinea we sampled 66 bats at 3 locations We found a seroprevalence of 55% for henipavirus (Hendra or Nipah virus) and 56% for rubulavirus (Tioman or Menangle virus) Notably 36% of bats surveyed contained antibodies to both types of viruses indicating concurrent or consecutive infection
