dc.description.abstract |
In 2010, lineage 1 West Nile virus was detected in
South Africa in the brain of a pregnant mare that succumbed
to neurologic disease and in her aborted fetus, suggesting
an association with abortion in horses. All West Nile virus
strains previously detected in horses and humans in South
Africa were lineage 2. |
