Journal ArticleDOI
SARS-CoV-2 infection in farmed minks, the Netherlands, April and May 2020.
Nadia Oreshkova,Robert Jan Molenaar,Sandra Vreman,Frank Harders,Bas B. Oude Munnink,Renate Hakze-van der Honing,Nora M. Gerhards,Paulien Tolsma,Ruth Bouwstra,Reina S. Sikkema,Mirriam G.J. Tacken,Myrna M.T. de Rooij,Eefke Weesendorp,Marc Y. Engelsma,Christianne Bruschke,Lidwien A.M. Smit,Marion Koopmans,Wim H.M. van der Poel,Arjan Stegeman +18 more
TL;DR: Variations in mink-derived viral genomes showed between-mink transmission and no infection link between the farms, and inhalable dust contained viral RNA, indicating possible exposure of workers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical and Pathological Findings in SARS-CoV-2 Disease Outbreaks in Farmed Mink ( Neovison vison ).
Robert Jan Molenaar,Sandra Vreman,Renate W. Hakze-van der Honing,Rob Zwart,Jan de Rond,Eefke Weesendorp,Lidwien A.M. Smit,Marion Koopmans,Ruth Bouwstra,Arjan Stegeman,Wim H.M. van der Poel +10 more
TL;DR: The most striking postmortem finding was an acute interstitial pneumonia, which was found in nearly all examined mink that died at the peak of the outbreaks of SARS-CoV-2, which caused respiratory disease outbreaks in mink farms in the Netherlands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased pathogenicity of European porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus is associated with enhanced adaptive responses and viral clearance

TL;DR: The results indicate that the increased clinical and pathological effect of the SU1-bel strain is more likely to be caused by an enhanced inflammatory immune response rather than higher levels of virus replication.
Journal ArticleDOI
African swine fever virus excretion patterns in persistently infected animals: a quantitative approach.
H.C. de Carvalho Ferreira,Eefke Weesendorp,Armin R.W. Elbers,Annemarie Bouma,S. Quak,Jan Arend Stegeman,Willie Loeffen +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that a high proportion of persistently infected animals shed virus into the environment for at least 70 days, representing a possible risk for transmission and that should be considered in future epidemiological analysis of ASF.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative analysis of immune responses following experimental infection of pigs with European porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus strains of differing virulence.
Eefke Weesendorp,Sophie B. Morgan,Norbert Stockhofe-Zurwieden,D.J. Popma-de Graaf,Simon P. Graham,Johanna M.J. Rebel +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that while the outcome of infection for the three strains was comparable, with mostly clearance of viremia at day 33 p.i, differences in immune responses were observed, perhaps contributing to their virulence.
