Epidemiology and biology of a herpesvirus in rabies endemic vampire bat populations
Here, Griffiths et al. show infection of 80–100% of sampled vampire bats in Peru with a newly discovered betaherpesvirus (DrBHV) that exhibits specificity within neotropical bats and evidence for superinfection. These data suggest that DrBHV could be a candidate for virally vectored vaccines that sp...
