蝙蝠在几种新传染病的出现中所起的作用一直在审查之中。蝙蝠已被确定为新出现病毒的宿主,如尼帕病毒、亨德拉病毒和严重急性呼吸综合征样冠状病毒。这篇文章阐述了有关蝙蝠和病毒的最新发现及其与人类感染的相关性。它简要回顾了翼手类病毒的历史,并在地理、系统发育和生态学的背景下讨论了它们的出现。还讨论了几起疫情对公共卫生和贸易的影响。最后,我们试图预测在哪里、何时以及为什么我们可能看到新的翼手目病毒的出现。
The role that bats have played in the emergence of several new infectious diseases has been under review. Bats have been identified as the reservoir hosts of newly emergent viruses such as Nipah virus, Hendra virus, and severe acute respiratory syndrome - like coronaviruses. This article expands on recent findings about bats and viruses and their relevance to human infections. It briefly reviews the history of chiropteran viruses and discusses their emergence in the context of geography, phylogeny, and ecology. The public health and trade impacts of several outbreaks are also discussed. Finally, we attempt to predict where, when, and why we may see the emergence of new chiropteran viruses.
