传染病是非洲类人猿的主要威胁之一。倭黑猩猩（Pan paniscus）可能特别容易受到传染病的传播，因为它们有凝聚力的群体和群体之间频繁的社会和性互动。在这里，我们报告了两例流感样疾病和可能的疾病传播之间的邻近野生倭黑猩猩群体在万巴，刚果。PE组于2013年7月28日开始首次流感样爆发，即在与BI和PW组接触后2天。除一名婴儿外，所有PE成员随后出现流感样症状，包括咳嗽和流鼻涕。2013年10月14日，E1组发生了第二次流感样暴发，当时E1遇到了PE组，两组在10月7日至11日呆在一起。在15名被观察的党员中，有11人在接下来的4天内出现了症状。两次暴发的病原体可能与两名临时移民女性有关，她们以前在PE组时曾表现出症状，在第二次暴发期间短暂停留在E1组，但没有表现出任何症状。
Infectious diseases constitute one of the major threats to African great apes. Bonobos (Pan paniscus) may be particularly vulnerable to the transmission of infectious diseases because of their cohesive grouping and frequent social and sexual interactions between groups. Here we report two cases of a flu-like illness and possible transmission of the illness among neighboring wild bonobo groups at Wamba, DR Congo. The first flu-like outbreak started in the PE group on July 28, 2013, 2 days after they had encounters with the BI and PW groups. All PE members, except for one infant, subsequently developed flu-like symptoms, including coughing and running nose. The second flu-like outbreak occurred in the E1 group on October 14, 2013, after E1 had encountered the PE group and the two groups stayed together from October 7 to 11. Eleven out of the 15 observed party members developed symptoms over the next 4 days. The pathogens underlying the two outbreaks may have been related as two temporary immigrant females, who had previously shown symptoms while in the PE group, stayed briefly in the E1 group during the second outbreak, but did not show any symptoms.
