2020年8月，作为长期疾病监测计划的一部分，在英格兰大伦敦地区的5只欧亚黑鹂（Turdus merula）和1只家雀（Passer acuticus）体内检测到了埃格图病毒。这最初是通过逆转录-PCR检测到的，并通过病毒分离和组织中黄病毒的免疫组化检测得到证实。系统发育分析确定了非洲3.2谱系，这是在荷兰和比利时流行，这表明一个潜在的入侵从欧洲大陆。
In August 2020, as part of a long-term disease surveillance programme, Usutu virus was detected in five Eurasian blackbirds (Turdus merula) and one house sparrow (Passer domesticus) from Greater London, England. This was initially detected by reverse transcription-PCR and was confirmed by virus isolation and by immunohistochemical detection of flavivirus in tissues. Phylogenetic analysis identified Usutu virus African 3.2 lineage, which is prevalent in the Netherlands and Belgium, suggesting a potential incursion from mainland Europe.
